Summer in Prague
IFSA - SUMMER IN PRAGUE
Geotag  Prague, Czech Republic

WHY STUDY IN PRAGUE
Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic, is one of Central Europe’s oldest gems, but also one of its rising stars. Home to innovation, art and creativity, Prague is the gateway to the “new Europe” within the Czech Republic and neighboring Germany and Austria. The city’s train stations, bus networks, and airport make Prague an ideal base from which to explore Europe. With a plethora of cafés, cathedrals, and museums, there is no shortage of local wonders to experience in Prague, and an excellent public transportation system allows you to traverse the city with ease.

As a nation that has successfully transitioned from communist rule to a stable democratic government, the Czech Republic stands out as a modern political and economic success story in Central Europe. Experience this cultural and historic treasure for yourself!

ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Take advantage of summer to build valuable skills for developing web applications or engaging customers through digital marketing in a captivating city with a jumping tech scene. As you gain knowledge and credits, you’ll wonder at some of Europe’s most distinctive architecture—and the unique social and political forces that shaped it. Plus, venture into the countryside to see how Czechs make the most of its natural beauty. With prices that are more affordable than in much of Europe, it’s easy to make the most of your time in enchanting Prague.

Choose one or two four–week sessions, and consider adding an eight-week internship with IFSA Summer Internships in Prague.
