15th EUROPEAN SUMMER SCHOOL: EU Law & Policy on Immigration & Asylum

15th EDITION
ORGANISED BY THE “ODYSSEUS” ACADEMIC NETWORK FOR LEGAL STUDIES ON IMMIGRATION AND ASYLUM IN EUROPE
+ new PhD Days

Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear Friends and Colleagues,

I have the honour, on behalf of the Odysseus Network, to inform you about the 15th edition of our Summer School on “Immigration and Asylum Law and Policy of the EU”, that will take place in the Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB) in Brussels (Belgium) from 29 June to 10 July 2015.

The classes give a global vision of the immigration and asylum law and policy of the European Union. They are conducted by academics among the best specialists in the field coming from all over Europe, and by high-ranking officials from European Institutions (European Commission, European Parliament,…). The Summer School provides the opportunity to live in a unique European environment and to tackle the most recent developments. It allows networking with around the one hundred participants. Over the last 14 years, it gathered almost 1700 people from diverse nationalities and backgrounds (civil servants, NGO representatives, lawyers, professors, researchers, PhD candidates, judges, social workers, advanced students, …).

The Summer School will include since this year a brand new Doctoral Seminar for PhD students to discover by clicking here.

In order to enable participants in employment to attend, the classes are held in the afternoon. Each class is given separately in French OR English. Candidates are advised to apply ASAP due to the high number of applicants. Additional information is available in the attached folder or on our website.

I hope to have the pleasure to meet you at our Summer School. I would also be grateful if you could forward the present email to any interested person to help us promoting this self-financed programme.

Sincerely yours

Prof. Philippe DE BRUYCKER
Coordinator of the Odysseus Academic Network
