Circle U. Summer Schools
Every year, Circle U., the European alliance to which UPCité belongs, organises summer schools. Students from Université Paris Cité can strengthen their CVs while discovering one of the alliance’s partner universities as part of a short mobility programme.

Circle U. European University Alliance: Université Paris Cité, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, King’s College, London, UCLouvain, University of Oslo, Aarhus University, University of Belgrade, Université of Pisa and Université of Vienna.
Main topics
Circle U. summer schools lead the way in innovative interdisciplinary courses addressing key societal challenges; global health, climate change and democracy.
Through theoretical input, practical exercises and collaborative projects, each programme encourages creativity, critical thinking and inter-university exchange. Whatever the theme, Circle U. summer schools are also a great opportunity to expand your network and join a dynamic European community.
Student perspective on the summer schools
Ruyue Deng, a doctoral student at Université Paris Cité, said after taking part in a summer school:
‘The courses and workshops provided me with practical tools to address some of the methodological challenges I face in my work […] The interactions with other PhD students and post-doctoral researchers from other backgrounds were particularly enriching.’

Through a combination of lectures, active learning, group work and dilemma-based approaches, participants tackle a wide range of topics such as inequalities in health and health care, health inequalities, health inequalities and health inequalities, health inequalities and health inequalities, health inequalities and health inequalities.
