Academic Program

  • The two ISUWU sessions (July and August) offer courses both on undergraduate and graduate level.

  • The academic program consists of two courses which are taught consecutively over the duration of three weeks. Students are required to complete both courses. Completion is worth 8 ECTS credits.

  • In the July session, students can choose from different sets of courses. In the August session, only one set of courses is available.

Please note: the course outlines for the ISUWU 2025 will presumably be published by late 2024/early 2025.

By delving into the realities of our world and exploring ways to contribute positively to society, the program instilled in us a sense of inspiration to become more conscientious and rational business individuals.
