The Multilingualism EU Summer School in Luxembourg returns in 2026!
Join the Summer School and meet like-minded students from all over the EU while learning about the different linguistic services
of the EU based in Luxembourg.
The Multilingualism EU Summer School is a one-week, in-person programme that combines professional training with social activities. The training includes workshops and presentations offered
by various EU linguistic services, covering topics such as terminology, clear language, translation, legal translation and interpretation. You will learn about how these services operate, what skills are required to work for them, and much more.
Furthermore, the programme is full of social activities such as, eating together in the evenings and a guided tour of the city of Luxembourg. The social activities are designed to showcase why
multilingualism is key for Luxembourg and what life in the Grand Duchy can offer.
A maximum of 35 students from across the European Union will take part in this on-site programme
in Luxembourg, one of the EU’s three capitals. Participants will discover the multilingual work of over 2 500 linguists who work in the 24 official EU languages, along with some non-EU languages, and who together build bridges between cultures and create a basis for mutual understanding.
