Program Overview

Unequivocally considered one of the most beautiful cities in the world, Paris is the capital of France, art, and fashion. Situated in northern France along the Seine River, the City of Light is the center of the  Île-de-France region, locally known as the région Parisienne ("Paris Region"). From its world-renowned landmarks like the Louvre Museum to the Eiffel Tower, Paris has plenty to offer you in this summer program.

Spend one six-week block (or up to two blocks) of your summer taking fascinating courses on French literature, painting, architecture, history, wine, fashion, and more at CIEE Paris. All classes are delivered in English and complemented with co-curricular activities designed to increase learning through experience and intercultural understanding.
