WHAT IS THE AIM OF THE I.S.E.O SUMMERSCHOOL
Since its first edition in 2004, the I.S.E.O summer school aims at bringing together 80 graduate students coming from the most important world university to improve their knowledge in economics.
Classes are held by Nobel Laureates in Economics and outstanding American and European instructors. In 7 days 80 graduate students, chosen according to their cv and academic experiences, get deep into the most relevant aspects of the European and world economy with a particular attention to the welfare state and unemployment.
The course has a comparative perspective, therefore every subject compares the US and European economies. Moreover every lesson combines a theoretical lecture with a highly interesting debate on the topics discussed during the lessons, sharing different opinions and beliefs with the Nobel Laureates themselves.
During their staying on Iseo lake, students are hosted in a wonderful location (4 star hotel on the beach of the lake, a big park with swimming pools, tennis, basket, volley and other amenities) and have the chance to visit the most beautiful cities in Northern Italy such as Venice, Cremona, Bergamo and the famous vineyards of Franciacorta.
The fee requested to attend the course amounts to 2.200 € but we award scholarship amounting to 1.500 €, so that enrolled students have just to pay the remaining 700 €.
The fee includes full board staying in a 4 star hotel, visits, local transportations and obviously the course and the material. Attendants shall provide for their own flights to Iseo that is very close to Milan Orio al Serio Airport, served by Ryanair and many other low cost airlines connecting Europe.
 
In order to apply, students shall download the application form and, once filled in, send it to the email address summerschool@istiseo.org together with their curriculum vitae.
