Summer and Winter Schools Abroad

Many of our partner universities run summer schools and winter schools during vacation periods. Participating in these programmes, which will help you learn and acquire new language skills and specialized knowledge, will give you many new experiences and may even inspire you to spend a longer time abroad.

Summer and Winter Schools Abroad

Participation in these kinds of stays abroad, which aim at improving language and specialist skills, will allow you to gather lots of new experiences and to improve your language skills and might also make you want to spend more time abroad.
