For the seventh time we will hold the `Garda Summer School` in Castelletto di Brenzone at the Garda Lake in Italy from 16 to 26 July 2008.

We would like to ask you if you could bring this to the attention of interested students at your University. Currently we are offering an internship program, and in the coming months we hope to obtain 3 scholarships for European students and 3 scholarships for non-European students.

This year, the theme is `environmental and personalist economics`. Parallel to the economics program, students can follow an Italian language and culture course, in cooperation with the Verona chapter of the international `Dante Alighieri Association`.

You can find all information on our web site: http://economicssummeracademy.com


The goal of this course is to offer students in economics and business administration, and young professionals in order to help them to find a suitable Master program and plan their further professional development.

Several prominent academics from the USA and Europe have confirmed their willingness to deliver the program. The course is accredited by the University of Verona (3 ECTS), and is organized in cooperation with the local partner `Centro di Studi Luigi Gonella`. Last year, the Economics Summer Academy was asked to develop an English language and international program for the `Garda Summer School`, and do the international marketing.

The Economics Summer Academy is a non-profit organisation, en all revenu is invested in small scale projects in developing countries (see our Charity page). Sinds 1999, members of the Economics Summer Academy board have experience with organizing `summer courses` and `semesters abroad` for students at US universities. As a leading academic organization we would like to ask you to spread this information among students. We believe it will be very beneficial for them, and participation in this course will be a life changing experience.

We also believe that this course contributes to the goals of your organization. If you have any more questions, please do not hesitate to contact :
