The Executive Summer School offers a unique programme of courses aimed at those professionals looking for rigorously challenging, in-depth courses.
The ESS uses the very best faculty, courses are intense and demanding. The programme offers a diverse range of subjects, covering the Business fundamentals of Management, Finance and Macroeconomics, as well as more specialised areas such as Climate Change, Behavioural Economics and Outsourcing. Our participants are dynamic, and represent a broad spectrum across professions and continents, which provides an intellectually rich environment in which to develop, study and network on a global scale
Using our experience as a leading specialist social science institution, LSE Executive Summer School delivers cutting-edge thinking across a range of disciplines.
Our week-long executive education courses are designed to meet the challenges faced by you and your organisation. LSE is synonymous with academic excellence and our globally renowned faculty will provide you with the intellectual resource you can build on in your current and future workplace, whatever direction your career takes. Located between London's financial heartland, the city, the policy makers of Westminster, and the cultural epicentre of London's West End. LSE is ideally positioned to influence and be influenced by these leading forces.
LSE remains the top-ranked social science higher education institution in Europe with an outstanding global reputation for teaching and research. However, as a dynamic institution in an increasingly challenging world we are well aware that to remain ahead we need to innovate - especially in these deeply uncertain times. We are therefore pleased to announce our 2012 portfolio of executive courses. Innovatively taught by some of the world's leading experts, each course is tailor-made for professionals who understand that in a fiercely competitive environment the more dedicated knowledge they can acquire the better they will be able to adapt and thrive.
Courses will be delivered by our international faculty employing an array of learning methods, seminars, interactive lectures, case studies and simulation exercises. All the teaching will be conducted in LSE's state of the art New Academic Building which was opened by Her Majesty the Queen in November 2008. With a stunning location overlooking Lincoln's Inn Field, the New Academic Building provides the perfect setting for high quality executive education courses.
All our executive education summer courses are taught by full-time LSE faculty. Renowned for their ability to bring the most up-to-date research to the attention of professionals at all levels, they will engage, challenge and equip you with the latest knowledge skills and expertise to keep you one step ahead of your peers. Guest lectures from business experts will provide unique practitioner knowledge enhancing your learning experience.
Who you work alongside at the LSE is just as important as what you learn. All participants will therefore be individually selected to create a global participant mix, representing a spectrum of functions, organisations, and countries. All courses actively encourage you to contribute, challenge and engage with your peers.
