Erasmus Summer Programme (ESP)

Programme: August 3 – 21, 2020

About the Erasmus Summer Programme
Each year the Erasmus Summer Programme (ESP) provides hundreds of students, researchers and health professionals with the opportunity to boost their scientific careers. It is a specialized event, in English, that offers three weeks of á la carte research training in quantitative medical and health research.

The programme provides its participants with a broad range of dynamic courses, both introductory and advanced, and provides the flexibility to mix and match the courses to their own individual programme. Due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, NIHES will be hosting this year’s edition of the ESP with a tailored programme, and in an online format.

The Erasmus Summer Programme will offer you a rich, interactive learning experience that includes web lectures and regular virtual contact with peers and the lecturers. The courses are set up with a clear structure and logical gradual build-up. Many courses facilitate interaction among fellow students using discussion boards, live chat, virtual break-out sessions, quizzes, etc. Do note that the course schedules will follow Central European Summer Time (CEST).

If you’re a student, researcher, executive or advisor in health sciences, this programme offers you the cutting-edge training you need to significantly enhance your competitive edge and to expand the frontiers of your scientific knowledge.
