The “European Summer School – Graz 2010″ truly captures the European spirit of cultural diversity. It offers students from all over our continent a great opportunity to gain insights into the workings of the European Union, with classes and workshops taught by an international faculty. Living and studying together in the heart of Europe will complement the academic side of the programme and make for a unique experience of cultural exchange and teamwork. This is European integration in action.

As Director of the Centre d’études européennes (CEE) at Sciences Po, I write to offer the support of the CEE to the European Summer School Graz. We are indeed happy to support a collective project of the students of the Master of European Affairs at Sciences Po, which we believe will be a great success.
This Summer School project combines both high academic standards with a truly European approach and added-value. The students will certainly gain an original and high quality learning experience in an unvaluable multicultural environment from the participation to the European summer School.
