What American universities have campuses in Europe?

Well, let's start with the obvious. I myself attended NYU in Madrid. NYU also has satellite campuses in London, Prague, Florence, and Paris. I think I heard they're opening a new one, but can't remember if it's in Europe or not.

Their own campuses? Or just study programs abroad?

Thanks, lampoil, though I did know about NYU. Perhaps I should clarify and say a list of American universities with European campuses would be the most help. :)

occhilblu: Yes, their own campuses.

Don't know of a list, but my alma mater, St. Thomas in MN has a Rome campus. I believe it's quite limited though.

Of course, they didn't have it when I went there. Bastards.

Notre Dame has campuses in quite a few spots, and facilitated programs in many more.

You could still narrow your definition of "campus", because some universities have class buildings, but not dedicated housing.

The University of Chicago has a Paris center and its Graduate School of Business recently moved their Barcelona campus to London. I'm not sure about housing in either place.

St. Mary's college (indiana) has a class building and library in Rome, but no housing.

And are you counting the American Universities in e.g. Rome and Athens and Paris and Dubai Beirut Cairo Bulgaria London Kyrgyzstan etc.?

Loyola University Chicago has the John Felice Rome Center, which they consider their Rome campus. however, I don't think you'd be able to fulfill graduation requirements if you attended only classes at the Rome campus (I could be wrong about that).

St. Louis University has a campus in Madrid. They offer limited majors at that campus, though.

Syracuse University offers a number of options. Dunno about a lot of them, but SU Florence has a couple (smallish) building campus with classrooms, student services and small cafe.

See also California State University System's setup. (not -a- University, but...)

frecklefaerie: Are you just making a list or is there a specific field you're looking at studying? I relished my time at the Bologna Center, but it offers exactly one program: a master's in international relations.

It's not American, but Queen's University in Ontario owns a castle in England. Tuition at Queen's for an American is probably competitive with some US universities (not state schools).

Georgia Tech has a campus in Metz, France (for both grad and undergrad students) and has many other smaller programs for studying abroad.
