PEKING UNIVERSITY 

INTERNATIONAL SUMMER INSTITUTE

A Journey to China from Your Room

Established in 2020, the Peking University International Summer Institute (PKUISI) is dedicated to providing students from around the world with accurate and concise information on the summer programs Peking University offers each year so students can make informed choices and select the summer program which best matches their needs. 

The PKUISI is not only about promoting diversity, it also offers a holistic learning experience for all students by connecting all summer school programs through a common theme.

The theme set by PKUISI will change from year to year to reflect global trends and offer students a memorable experience at PKU. Given the special circumstances facing us in 2020, the theme for this year’s Peking University International Summer Institute is “A Journey to China from Your Room,” and it consists of 3 programs:

The PKU Chinese Language Summer School (PKUCLSS) lets you study the Chinese language, practice Chinese calligraphy, and learn more about Chinese culture.  

The PKU Summer School International (PKUSSI) offers a buffet of interdisciplinary subjects, giving you access to courses covering specialized topics relevant to today’s world.  

The PKU-UChicago International Policy Action Lab (IPAL) provides a space where you can discuss policy research with renowned scholars from PKU and the University of Chicago.

These programs combined give you the chance to develop your academic skills, expand your social and professional networks, and broaden your horizons all from the safety and comfort of your own home… and they require nothing but a mobile phone, a laptop, and an internet connection.

Don’t wait, get your gadgets set up and get ready to take part in the PKU summer school programs. They will take you on a journey around the world, turning your house to a social hub where you can live, learn, and thrive with fellow students from across the globe!
