Featured programs
Philosophy in biology and medicine
University of Bordeaux
This Bordeaux Summer School is organized by the PhilinBioMed network and the University of Bordeaux. It is open to second year Master students, doctoral students and post-doctoral fellows from the fields of philosophy, life sciences, and medicine. Participants will learn to use interdisciplinary methods to address conceptual issues in scientific research. Course leaders will be present to highlight practical examples of interdisciplinary partnerships from their career, and to advise and interact with participants throughout the week. The programme will also include different formats such as group work, 'speed dating', and individual discussions, designed to further interactions between participants and course leaders.
Space: convergence of new technologies
University of Bordeaux
Throughout this summer school, renowned and dynamic speakers will share their insight on the latest advances and applications of new space technologies as a driver for environmental sustainability. The environmental impacts of new technologies, both negative and positive, are a major research subject for the 21st century, as highlighted by recent debates on topics such as the launch of 5G networks. Course content will address strategies to introduce notions of sustainability into the development and deployment of new space technologies, and more specifically how these technologies may serve planet Earth. It is open to graduate students, engineers and doctoral students with an interest in the latest advances and applications of new space technologies, as well as professionals new to the field or working in companies wanting to discover space.
Cardiac electrophysiology
University of Bordeaux
This Bordeaux Summer School is dedicated to the study of fundamental cardiac electrophysiology. It is open to international science and medical students, engineers and experienced researchers wishing to improve their background knowledge. During the five day session, the course offers intensive theoretical and practical sessions concerning all aspects of cardiac electrophysiology, from the molecular level to pre-clinical investigations and patient care. The programme also provides a unique opportunity for participants to meet world leading experts and to learn about state-of-the-art techniques.
Conflicts and international interventions
University of Bordeaux
This Bordeaux Summer School is jointly organised by Sciences Po Bordeaux, the University of Bordeaux, Université Laval, the Institute for Strategic Research at the Military School, and Paris Panthéon-Assas University. It is destined to graduate and postgraduate students as well as to postdoctoral researcher and professionals who are interested in the subject of conflicts and international interventions. The learning material allows participants to grasp this topic through a multidisciplinary approach integrating elements from law, political science, international relations, and economics. The programme enables the analysis of different stakes related to the cycle of international interventions (prevention/preparation, intervention, resolution/post-intervention). Participants earn a deep, synthetic knowledge of the tools necessary to analyse conflicts and intervention, and are inspired to reflect on the great controversies related to said interventions.
Our ambassador

Prof. Dr. Jan C. TerlouwInternational experience is very valuable, certainly in research. I shall never forget my time at MIT. A new country, new approaches, new colleagues, new friends. A change of ideas. I greatly encourage anyone to study abroad for a while. Short Term Programs is a great tool to make this happen.”
