Summer schools

The University of Bucharest organizes the 53^rd edition of  the Summer Courses in Romanian language, culture and civilization, from July 22 through August 4, 2013. Founded by the renowned linguist Alexandru Rosetti in the ‘60s, in Sinaia, and coordinated for several years by professor Boris Cazacu, the University of Bucharest Summer School is the oldest academic initiative in Romania meant to promote Romanian language and culture abroad. During the last 50 years of experience, the University of Bucharest Summer Courses have gained recognition and prestige due to the participation of many Romanian and foreign academics, as well as of distinguished scholars and artists.

 

After the successful experience in 2010, 2011 and 2012, the present edition of the Summer Courses will be held again in Bucharest, the capital of Romania. Attested since 1469, Bucharest flourished architecturally and culturally in the interwar period, when the city was referred to as ‘Little Paris.’

Today, the population of Bucharest counts more than 2 million people, and the city is ranked 6^th in the European Union.   

Choose Bucharest and you won’t regret it! You will discover a charming city, with classical buildings and historical monuments, but also a modern and intense city life. You will find here many concert halls, theatres and cinemas, cultural institutes, hundreds of restaurants and cafés, modern shops, parks and lakes.
