Summer Sessions

2027 Summer Sessions at our Centers

Experience what it is like to study at a Syracuse Center location in a condensed amount of time by spending anywhere from 2 to 8 weeks during the summer at one of our Centers in Florence, London, Madrid or Strasbourg. During our summer sessions, you can choose from a variety of courses and enroll in one or two classes to earn 3 to 9 credits. Depending on the location, you will live with a host family, in a residence hall or within shared apartments. During your experience abroad, you will be able to immerse yourself in the city’s culture by participating in exciting Center activities, including weekend trips and city exploration opportunities.

Hear from our Global Ambassadors

“My Management and Marketing major has been transformed by BUA 300, Made in Italy: Business, Craftsmanship, and Branding Success. It is without a doubt that this study abroad course enhanced my problem-solving skills as well as deepened my appreciation of different cultures and perspectives, which I believe will be invaluable in my professional career.”
