Berlin, October 18, 2024 – As one of the hand-picked partners of the Stanford Summer Session International Honors Program, CODE University of Applied Sciences will send selected students to the prestigious university in Silicon Valley during the summer months.
During the eight-week Stanford Summer Session program, students have the opportunity to choose freely from the Stanford course offerings and further their education in areas such as innovation and entrepreneurship, computer science and technology as well as creativity and design. They can also take part in excursions and cultural and sporting events. As guest students on the program, CODE students therefore not only have the opportunity to acquire theoretical knowledge, but also to gain practical experience and build valuable networks that will be of great importance for their future careers.
With this new partnership, CODE aims to consolidate its position as one of the leading universities for technology-oriented education in Germany and at the same time enable its students to study abroad at one of the most renowned universities.
Mike Roesler, International Partnerships Manager of Stanford Summer Session: “This partnership opens up unique opportunities for CODE students to network with one of the best universities in the world and learn from top-class lecturers.”
Prof. Dr. Peter Ruppel, President of CODE: “The partnership with Stanford is a significant step for CODE and our students. It reflects our commitment to providing our students with the best possible opportunities for their personal and professional development. We are proud to be part of this international network.”
CODE student Max Arnold, first participant of the program: “As the first CODE student in the renowned Stanford summer program and discussions with Mike Roesler, I was able to actively contribute to the creation of this valuable partnership. It shows how much students at CODE are inspired to take their own initiatives and seize international opportunities.”
