Grammar

in, of or others

I have a question about the following sentence:
I was in the English Course (in / of / at) the Faculty of Arts and Letters.

Some Americans say "in" is the best and others say "of" is better.
Grammatically speaking, which do you think is better to use?

Are you asking about this institution in particular? Do you think of it as a location? If not, could you give some other examples?

I'd say use 'in'.
