Summer School.

There is a countless number of summer school programs that vary in duration and course fees. Sign up directly with the organizer. And there are grants and scholarships available to help you out financially. So, what are you waiting for?

Information for programs for 2021 should be available in February.

The following scholarships are available to attend a summer school program abroad (not restricted to the ones listed above):

The JKU Study Abroad Scholarship

The scholarship is a subsidy to help cover the course fees and is a max. of € 250 in Europe and a max. of € 500 outside of Europe.

Apply online BEFORE taking part in the program and submit the following:

  • Current CV
  • Current transcripts
  • Reason for wanting to attend a summer school program
  • Course program and schedule
  • Doctoral candidates: Dissertation agreement and statement issued by a professor in the field about the advantage and academic relevance of the summer school program (this will also replace credit transfer documents)

Please note: Any approved scholarship will only be paid out after at least 1 ECTS credit per course week has been transferred. We strongly recommend applying for a pre-approval application before the summer school program starts.
