Before selecting your courses
Workload
The estimated workload includes:
- class participation
- course reading
- group work
- exams/written projects
A large portion of the learning process takes place outside of class, so you should be prepared to spend some time reading before the start of the programme and preparing for classes during the programme.
Class attendance
There are different requirement for attendance to different types of courses:
- 2-week courses: requires you to attend at least 80% of the class sessions.
- 3-week and 6-week courses: class attendance is not mandatory in these courses. However CBS Summer University is a very intensive programme, so we strongly recommend that you attend and actively participate in all classes.
Feedback Activity
Feedback is a part of all courses.
Depending on the course the feedback will be:
- feedback for all students: based on a test, quiz, group presentation etc.
- individual feedback: in courses with a project exam or home assignment, you will get an approval of your research question for the project or assignment.
You can find more information about feedback in the course description.
Course offers may change
The course offer is subject to student interest and enrolment and there may be changes to the course offer up until the beginning of the programme.
Cancellation date: early March 2026
Courses with few applicants will be cancelled before 4 March 2026. You can see if a course is cancelled on the lists of all courses.
Changes are limited
