06. - 21.07.2024
for all UNI and UAS students in Austria
Summer colleges offer you the opportunity to learn languages during the summer holidays and at the same time enjoy the summer to the full. This is particularly successful if you can experience the people and culture of the host country up close. While you learn Czech, Czech students learn German (tandem principle).
