The ESCP Europe London campus hosts three-week summer classes that combine lectures, visiting guests and group projects along with management fundamentals and social networking.
There are three courses that run at the same time, though all students will undergo general management training the week prior to their selected class.
The International Management class teaches branding, strategy and human resources as applied to international business and management. The Finance in London course instructs students on all aspects of the financial world and provides an understanding of financial markets, products and services.
