Stanford University is a globally renowned centre for innovation and research, and every class on your Stanford summer course is taught by experts in their field. So whatever subject you’re studying you’ll be learning from the best. It’s nothing like school either. Instead you’ll take part in a mixture of subject sessions and workshops taught as college-style seminars led by world-class Stanford tutors. Just like a real American college student. So whether you chose to study Robotics, AI, Neuroscience, Design Thinking, Creative Writing, Genetics or any of the other fascinating topics Stanford excels in, you and your classmates will enjoy the finest academic experience.
What’s life like at a top American college? Find out for yourself at this globally renowned university when you take part in the Stanford summer programme. You’ll stay in dorms on the Stanford University college campus. So you’ll be right in the heart of this vibrant educational institution. And close to some of the world’s most exciting companies. Together with your fellow students, you’ll have the chance to explore Silicon Valley and the San Francisco Bay area, including day trips to locations such as the Golden Gate Bridge, California Science Museum, Pier 39 or a Giants baseball game.

You’ll spend a lot of time working closely with like-minded students in class – and have lots of fun with them when you’re not studying.
