The intensive two-week Jean Monnet Summer School on EU Policy Making, taught on campus, is held one week in Brussels and one week in Vienna, every year in July. It allows students to explore both the old and the new centre of diplomacy in Europe. The VUB Brussels School of Governance joins forces with the Diplomatische Akademie Wien — Vienna School of International Studies to bring you this 'crash course' in European Union Policy Making. The focus area of the Summer School is civil rights, touching on policy discussions related to human security, migration, anti-discrimination, and diversity.

VUB and EUTOPIA students are entitled to a 1.000 EUR discount and can therefore attend the full Winter School for a significantly reduced tuition fee.
