These sessions allow international talents to reinforce their skills, gain new knowledge and develop their professional network – all while making the most of Bordeaux during the summer months!

An experience of excellence

In 2020, the Bordeaux Summer Schools program is launching a wide range of disciplinary themes. Courses will take place between late May and September and will cover very different disciplines (see below) ranging from African studies to artificial intelligence to wine sciences to advanced materials to health sciences and more!

These courses are highly selective and target international talents. Course content offers an enriching curricular experience with, depending on the discipline, a mixture of theoretical and practical training that demands a notable level of expertise and knowledge. Upon completion of the Summer School, students are awarded a University of Bordeaux certificate that attests to the knowledge and skills acquired during the course.

Research oriented course content

The Bordeaux Summer Schools benefit from strong input regarding format and scientific content from the University of Bordeaux Graduate Research School, a central structure that coordinates the doctoral schools and the entire field of doctoral studies.

A large majority of the Summer Schools are organized in collaboration with internationally renowned laboratories and institutes that share their expertise and cutting-edge facilities with the students and researchers that come to Bordeaux over the summer.
