Why choosing EADA Summer School programme

The EADA Summer School is a two-week, English-taught programme designed for ambitious young people aged 17–21 who want to learn, connect and experience the world of business in Barcelona.

Students can choose between two independent programmes, each exploring a dynamic and relevant area of business:

Entrepreneurship & Design – discover how to identify opportunities, understand people’s needs and develop innovative solutions.
AI for Business – explore how Artificial Intelligence is transforming the way businesses innovate, make decisions and create value.

Both programmes offer a practical and engaging learning experience, combining interactive classes, teamwork, company visits, guest speakers and a final project. Students will develop valuable skills, gain insights into real-world business and put their learning into practice.

But the experience goes beyond the classroom. Students will live and learn in Barcelona, explore the city, take part in social and cultural activities and build lasting friendships with an international community of peers.

With its combination of business, innovation, practical learning and international experiences, the EADA Summer School is the perfect opportunity to make your summer count while gaining a first-hand insight into life at EADA Business School.
