IES Abroad Vienna is a Psychology Summer Program for those who seek intern or study opportunities with a focus in the German language, pre-health, pre-med or psychology. This program will be in Vienna, and students will enroll in two or three courses which provide not only in-depth lectures, but also hands-on experiences. Additionally, German language instruction is required for students with less than one year of college-level German speaking experience. Students who participate will live in apartments that will ultimately “feel like home,” yet provide a change in scenery and environment.
The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) Summer Program offers more than 70 courses in accounting, business, economics, English, finance, international studies, law and management. Students will learn in an environment where significant developments in society, economics and politics first took place. LSE’s program hopes to address current issues through raising questions regarding the “promotion of prosperity and welfare,” not only in Britain, but on an international scale. Through this program, students will be able to pursue rigorous, sophisticated education while also exploring the heart of central London.
