    Economics and Finance Summer summary

    This residential summer school introduces economics, markets, investment and global finance through interactive teaching and practical projects.

    It suits students who want university-style subject exploration alongside campus living, cultural trips and collaborative presentations.

    What is Economics & Finance in Yale & New York?

    Economics & Finance in Yale & New York is an Oxford Royale summer school exploring microeconomics, macroeconomics, markets, investment and global finance. Students use simulations, case studies and hands-on projects to connect theory with business and policy challenges.

    The experience starts at Yale University and moves to Barnard College, Columbia University, in Manhattan. Alongside academic study, students visit the Financial District, encounter cultural landmarks and complete group presentations.

    Why Succeed highlights Economics and Finance Summer

    • The two-campus structure connects an Ivy League setting with New York's global financial environment.

    • Analyst and consulting projects require students to turn theory into evidence-based recommendations.

    • Wall Street, a UN speaker session and economics workshops add direct context beyond classroom teaching.

    • The programme combines subject depth with leadership, communication and presentation practice.

    • A certificate records the course title, dates and campus after successful completion.

    Who is Economics and Finance Summer for?

    Best for

    Students who want to test economics or finance through practical group work while experiencing residential university life in two US settings.

    Not ideal if

    You want a low-cost, non-residential or narrowly exam-focused course, or prefer individual work to projects, debate and presentations.

    Is Economics and Finance Summer worth it?

    The programme can be worthwhile for students who value immersive campus life, applied economics and exposure to New York's financial and cultural institutions. Its strongest feature is the connection between academic concepts and substantial group projects.

    The fee is significant, and the famous campus names should not be mistaken for university sponsorship or admission advantage. Its value depends on engaging seriously with the work and later reflecting on what was learned, rather than treating the experience as a credential alone.
