If you're an undergraduate student at LCC in your first or second year, you can apply for one of four bursaries to cover the costs – flights, tuition, and housing – of participating in Hong Kong Polytechnic University’s International Summer School. Students are liable for any additional costs.

Participating in Hong Kong Polytechnic University’s International Summer School is an opportunity for cultural immersion – the subject you study does not need to match your degree programme. Although you may be awarded credit by HKPU, the credit will not transfer back to your degree at LCC.

The bursary will cover flights, tuition, and housing. Students who are offered the bursary will be eligible to apply for Turing funding.

The International Summer School will take place from:

Session 1: 2 – 30 July 2025

Session 2: 14 July – 13 August 2025

Students can enrol in one session and take one subject.  Find out more about the range of subjects on offer.

5 reasons to apply

  1. You’ll experience studying abroad
  2. You’ll meet students and tutors from all over the world, building new networks in the process
  3. You’ll gain first-hand experience of a new culture through teaching and enrichment activities
  4. You’ll gain international experience relevant for future job opportunities or further studies
  5. You’ll experience an exciting mix of study, social and cultural events

Before you apply

Bursaries are only offered to LCC students progressing from year 1 into year 2, or year 2 into year 3

Make sure the summer school programme does not clash with any other commitments you have for the summer, including your course at LCC. It is your responsibility to check this.

How to apply

Submit your application to the LCC International Office using the link below.

Please be advised that we can only offer four bursaries, and we expect the application process to be competitive, we will unfortunately not be able to fund all who apply.
