The European Summer School programme builds on the University of Kent’s international reputation and specialist knowledge, offering two stimulating postgraduate level programmes which combine lectures and seminars with visits to key cultural sites across the cities.
- Classes are taught in English by specialist academics and practitioners from across the world • Expand your professional, academic and social networks
- Benefit from special access to people and places off the tourist route
- A fantastic opportunity to discover the wonderful cities of Brussels or Paris, the European Summer Schools offer the chance to either enhance and deepen your knowledge of your own subject area or study something completely different for a period of two weeks.
- The Summer Schools will provide an insight into a wide variety of subject areas and scholars will gain expertise, skills and intercultural awareness which will be attractive to potential employers.
- Sessions with expert lecturers and guest speakers will be combined with related excursions, resulting in an intellectually stimulating programme and an experience of living and studying in one of Europe’s major capitals.
