Overview
International Summer School serves as an introduction to business studies while allowing students to enjoy their summer break in Barcelona and make friends from all over the world.
The program takes place in July and August at EU Business School (EU) and is specifically designed for high school students who are considering studying business for their bachelor’s degree. For three weeks, students get a taste of business studies at college level as the academic content has been adapted from EU’s first-year bachelor’s curriculum and is taught by EU’s high-caliber lecturers and business leaders.
Classes are delivered in the morning and are followed by social and cultural activities in the afternoon to provide students with a truly enriching experience. From sports to sightseeing tours and day trips to the coast, these exciting outings help students learn more about Spanish culture and build a network of lifelong international friendships.
Students who would like to make the most of their summer break, develop entrepreneurial skills and experience a top business education but cannot attend the on-campus program due to the global health situation, will join EU’s Online International Summer School. This program provides the highlights of the on-campus academic content in a dynamic virtual environment.

Success Stories
We were encouraged to step outside of the classroom with the cultural and industrial visits. We went to Sitges and Girona to discover a little more about Spanish culture. In Barcelona, we enjoyed a guided tapas tour and visited Camp Nou. This summer school has been designed for us – young, international students who want to learn, but at the same time have an unforgettable experience.
