At CBU, we understand that exploring the world of sport and performance psychology means to actually explore the world. Building unique opportunities to grow in this field is what separates us from other programs out there. Since 2019, CBU and the Sport and Performance Psychology discipline have provided students, who wish to explore sport and performance psychology, an experience like nothing else. With stops in Oxford, Wimbledon, Shakespeare's Globe Theater, Olympic facilities, and multiple Futbol venues, this trip provides students with a once in a lifetime field experience that will impact their education. History blended with performance, culture, and sites — that’s how we’d describe the London trip! This iconic city has been home to countless important moments in history (like past Olympics), and you’ll get a taste of all of it when you take advantage of this unique global engagement opportunity while at CBU. 

London is the perfect location to start your love for exploring international performance; it’s bustling and diverse, easy to get around, modern and yet cultural, and filled with performance experiences. Global engagement in London means that you will be able to wander the streets and be amazed at the incredible city you chose for your study abroad experience. So, if you are ready to get out of the Riverside bubble and see how big God is, then pack your bags! Cheers!
