Tuition-based mobility programmes

Each summer Stanford Summer Session invites international undergraduate and graduate students to participate in Stanford’s International Honors Program (IHP), which has been developed in collaboration with a few designated university partners from around the world.

During the eight-week programme (June–August), students are enrolled in the same courses as matriculated Stanford students and earn Stanford academic credit along with an official Stanford University transcript. The vast majority of courses are taught by Stanford faculty, lecturers, and advanced Stanford graduate students, supplemented by high-quality visiting instructors from other universities.

All IHP students must enroll in a minimum of 8 units, 7 of which must be from academic departments. This usually represents two to three courses.

IHP students are high-performing and ambitious students selected by their home universities based on their history of academic success, and the program combines top-notch academics with extracurricular activities, such as partaking in the Silicon Valley Innovation Academy.

IHP students live and study together in their own residential environment, forming a community of dedicated scholars and enabling the students to make connections and new friendships that can last a lifetime.

The “Berkeley International Study Program” (BISP) is a unique program that provides study abroad opportunities for visiting international students, to come to Berkeley for one or two semesters. UC Berkeley have since 2005 been partnering with selected universities in different parts of the world where they have academic connections, who nominate qualified students to study abroad in the programme.

BISP offers students the opportunity to take courses across a broad range of discipline areas, from the arts & humanities to social sciences and even biological and physical sciences.
