Short-term study at Essex
Academic and professional summer schools
Traditionally located at our historic Colchester Campus, surrounded by tranquil parkland, or the vibrant seaside town of Southend, our summer schools combine academic rigour, research excellence and innovation. Each summer school brings experts together from around the world to share their expertise and experiences; to provide insight into current trends and developments and to train participants in a range of specialised fields.
