UCL School of Management is set to host an engaging and interactive weeklong summer school for Year 12 students in London and its surrounding areas.​

Aspiring young minds are invited to join us at our Canary Wharf hub for an immersive experience exploring how businesses can make positive contributions to society while tackling real-world challenges through innovative solutions. 

The summer school will start on Monday 29 July 2024 and promises an engaging journey. Participants will be introduced to a genuine business challenge, working in small teams alongside student ambassadors and UCL academics to craft innovative solutions. The week culminates in a presentation session where teams will receive valuable feedback from an expert panel. Beyond classroom sessions, students will have the opportunity to embark on eye-opening visits to the Felix Project and the Canary Wharf Eden Project. 

Additionally, select participants will have the chance to apply for and undertake a weeklong work experience with the Canary Wharf Group upon completion of the summer school.
