Solvay Summer School

European Challenges

The perfect blend of learning and fun:

The Solvay Summer School is a summer institute for outstanding students from all over the world, organised by our very own committee of master students.
 

 

Overview

The goal of the Solvay European Summer School is to give students the state-of-the-art knowledge and tools necessary to work as general managers in a European context. The programme features classes, trips, and activities designed to give students the opportunity to learn about European business challenges.
Our Summer School is a unique experience that will enable you to interactively acquire vast amounts of information and know-how on the current economic situation in Europe and discover the wonderful city of Brussels, the capital of Europe. In addition, it is a wonderful opportunity to build your international network and become a Solvay Alumni.
At the Solvay Summer School, you will attend lectures given by internationally renowned professors and researchers from various backgrounds, while getting a taste of what Solvay Brussels School of Economics and Management is about.

Aside from the learning experience, it is important to mention that the Solvay Summer School is organised by students, for students. This means you will get the opportunity to experience authentic Belgian student life and culture. In addition to the lectures, visits and excursions are planned during the week.
