Additional Overseas Opportunities

Summer Schools

Subject specific or culture and language based, summer schools deliver well beyond expectations.  Lasting between ten days and eight weeks, these programmes offer a short term approach to study abroad.  They are also still of great benefit, as students gain transversal and international skills, proving they are capable, self-reliant and globalised, while also providing the opportunity to make new friends from all over the world.

These programmes are continually changing and expanding, so please contact the Study Abroad team at studyabroad@chester.ac.uk for more information.
