Strobl, Lake Wolfgang – Austria

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ever since the University of Vienna Sommerhochschule (SHS) was
established in 1949, an international summer school has been offered every year. Apart from its educational mission, one of the summer program’s most important aims has been restoring and promoting mutual understanding between Austrians and Americans that World War II had done so much to destroy.

Today the program provides a multidimensional survey of the present development of Europe and the European Union (EU). Participants will study both the decisionmaking processes within the EU institutions as well as various aspects of European political culture. The program aims at contributing to an increased understanding of the EU and ist possible future shape.

Students from all over the world have been drawn to the program, not only because of the outstanding academic reputation of ist European Studies courses and the excellent opportunities it offers students to learn German, but also because of its location directly on the shores of one of Austria’s most scenic lakes, Lake Wolfgang, in the Salzkammergut region, and because of the area’s excellent sports and recreational facilities.

The intercultural dimension provided by the summer program’s internationally diverse Student population has become one of the most rewarding features of students’ learning experience. Today, more than 30 different nationalities are represented in the Student body, up to 100 students accepted into the program, creating the conditions most conducive to intercultural and social interaction.

The Sommerhochschule operates under the academic and administrative supervision of the Rector of the University of Vienna. The organizers, faculty and sponsors believe that the Sommerhochschule’s formula of holistic learning – intellectual pursuit and physical exercise in a setting of intercultural and social exchange – helps reinforce mutual respect and tolerance among participants.
