Program Description:

Overview

“We The People”

This year’s theme, “We The People”, celebrates 250 years of the American Constitution by offering a unique perspective on how people and communities impact the world around them.

Participants will learn from research experts in a range of fields such as arts, culture, economics, law, politics, business, and urban development to better understand the words of Margaret Mead: "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has."

The summer school experience will include:  

  • Academic sessions taught by leading experts 
  • Opportunities to learn and apply research methodologies, which you can use in your undergraduate projects or dissertation 
  • Study in the John Rylands Research Library and the Manchester Museum – European Museum of the Year 2025. 
  • Access to Manchester’s historic sites, vibrant cultures, music and food. Experience first-hand why the New York Times named the city as one of their ‘top places to go’ in 2024.
Accommodation

You will stay in a single, en-suite, self-catered room with a shared kitchen at our Unsworth Park student residence.

Unsworth Park is on the Fallowfield Campus, about an 8–10-minute bus ride from the main campus.
