Every summer, EM Strasbourg Business School organizes its international summer school program.
Studying in the heart of Europe, students take courses on business in Europe including European economic policies with a focus on sustainability. A number of courses are taught by guest faculty from around the world. The courses are complemented by visits to companies and organizations.
