Classes are typically held Monday through Thursday, 9am-1pm, on The University of Edinburgh campus.  Several educational visits complement the material covered in class. In summer 2007, the group visited the Scottish Parliament and heard from several guest speakers.

Students should consult with their Academic Advisor to determine how the credit applies to their degree. All grades compute into the UT-Austin GPA.  Pending Academic Advisor approval, students can take the courses on a credit/no credit basis.  Business students must take the Business Law course for a letter grade only.  Note that coursework taken in a student's major or minor must be taken for a letter grade. Students in the Business Honors Program can request with the BHP Office to receive honors credit for Business Law (LEB 323).
