Summer Schools

Information on Summer Schools by HU and other universities

Going abroad for participation in the summer school of a university abroad can make sense as an initial foray into international learning. Many universities worldwide offer summer and winter schools to meet student demand for short-term stays. Humboldt-Universität runs summer and winter schools both abroad and in Berlin.
