Immerse Education - Economics Summer School London

Immerse Education's Economics Summer School London is a two-week, university-level academic course for students aged 15-18. Based at University College London (UCL), the programme combines seminars, data-led projects, and critical discussion to explore economic systems, markets, policy and financial mathematics.

Participants undertake in-depth academic sessions and a self-directed personal research project guided by expert tutors. Small class sizes (an average of 7 students per class) enable personalised teaching and 1:1 tutoring from academic experts, many drawn from top universities.

The programme includes guest speaker sessions, group projects, and opportunities to apply university-style methods and data analysis to real-world economic questions. On completion students receive a certificate of achievement and can opt in to receive 8 UCAS points where eligible.

Residential participants stay in UCL accommodation, with meals and cultural/extracurricular activities included. Sessions run in June, July and August, and enrolment is completed via the Immerse Education website.
