The Scottish Universities’ International Summer School (SUISS) was founded as a non-profit organisation by Professor David Daiches in 1947 in the spirit of the Edinburgh International Festival.
Each summer, SUISS run courses in British and Irish literature and culture from 1900 to the present, as well as a creative writing programme.
Undergraduates, postgraduates, teachers and lecturers from all over the world are welcome to apply.
The School presents a wonderful opportunity for visiting Scotland, combining excellent educational facilities with the incomparable surroundings of Scotland’s capital city.
SUISS runs for a total of six weeks, and offers a continuous programme of study throughout that period. Students may choose to come for the full programme, or attend either the first, the second or the third two-week term, or a combination of the modules. SUISS also offers several scholarship schemes to help with tuition fees.
