Summer Schools

A unique feature at the University of Leicester is our fully-funded Summer Schools abroad.

The University of Leicester offers the great opportunity for first year students to attend a Summer School in the country whose language they are studying. These three-week-long Summer Schools will be fully-funded by the University of Leicester.

Locations

There are summer schools in:

• Montpellier (France)
• Massa Marittima (Tuscany, Italy)
• Santiago de Compostela (Spain)

Programme

The programme includes language tuition; language classes in small groups of students in the morning. The programme also involves cultural activities or social activities in the afternoon, evening and weekend.

Benefits

The benefits gained by students during their three-week stay are invaluable. You will gain: 

• increased competence and confidence in the spoken and written language and better cultural awareness
• improved language skills before the start of the second year
• opportunity to extend your language skills through socialising with other students and with host families
• excellent preparation for the year abroad in your third year
