4-week Program
You can also follow a 4-week study program (with a workload equivalent to 12 ECTS credits) by taking one of the following courses from June 29 to July 10, 2026:
- Our Skills Summer School. This is a good option for students interested in improving their writing and speaking skills to succeed in their academic and professional careers.
- Environmental Economics and Policy Analysis: The Theory of Externalities and the Economics of Pollution Control from our partner UAM’s Summer School of Economics and Business. This course is organized entirely by UAM without our participation but is open to our students. It would be a great complement to the university-level climate change overview of our 2-week curriculum by providing an in-depth preview of the economic analysis of environmental policies with two additional initial weeks. This is a good introduction for students interested in the economics of climate change.
