Politics & Languages & Culture

University of Edinburgh

Home to the Scottish Parliament, Edinburgh has strong foundations in politics. By taking part in Edinburgh’s summer school, you will be joining one of the UK’s top 10 universities for Politics and International Studies (QS 2020). Throughout the digital summer school, you will explore the contexts of domestic and international conflicts about power and resources, the morality of political action, the limits of freedom and justice, and the processes of governance at various levels. You will work with our fantastic team of academic staff and current students to deepen your understanding of the subject in interactive online classes, independent work, and engaging group projects. You will also have the opportunity to try out other subjects throughout the week.

Join us this summer to learn a new language and explore exciting cultures! You do not need any language experience to take part, but if you are already adept at languages, we will certainly have a new language that you have not tried before. Edinburgh offers one of the widest range of languages of any UK university, and is ranked 3rd in the UK and 12th in the world for modern languages (QS 2020). Throughout the digital summer school, you will learn a new language from scratch with our fantastic team of academic staff and current students in interactive online classes. You will also explore the culture, history and traditions of various nations through engaging online activities, independent work, and creative group projects. Languages are offered as single subjects or alongside many degrees at university, so join us to find out if languages are for you! You will also have the opportunity to try out other subjects throughout the week.
