Summer Academy 2022 - Program plan
MCC Summer Academy is a 8-day-long summer school organised by students of the Mathias Corvinus Collegium, an interdisciplinary educational institute in the heart of Budapest, Hungary. Inspired by the success of the former ten events focusing on energy, international development, food economics, industrial strategies, international management, entrepreneurship, business transformation, sustainable business, fintech for business and value-creating development our organiser team proudly presents this year's Summer Academy in the topic of Urbanization.
During the conference, we are going to delve into the various aspects of urbanization, starting from providing a historical overview all the way to exploring new global trends that determine our future. We are going to discuss the advantages and potential challenges of modern day urbanization and intend to study the long-distance solutions to the problems and talk about responsible way of growing.

Our goal is to encourage social discussion on the topic.

Moreover, members of the program will be granted opportunities for leisure activities and discovering the sights of Budapest.
Although we are planning to hold this event in person, the actual regulations in connection with the Covid-19 crisis could change the organising circumstances. Therefore, if the circumstances will allow the conference to be held in person, the actual regulations will define the guidelines of the event. On the other hand, if we are unable to hold the conference entirely offline, it will take place in a hybrid or in a completely online form.

Location: Budapest

Date: 16-23 July 2022

Please note that the Summer Academy will be held completely in English.
