Monday, June 9 to Thursday July 3, 2025 (4 weeks)

The summer of 1997 was the first offering of the University of Toronto’s Summer Program in Hong Kong. In 23 summers over 5,000 students have participated in this incredibly popular and successful program.

In 2025, the program will be offered in a virtual format, allowing students to engage with curated course content and themes related to Hong Kong's history, art, society, and global connections - regardless of where they are in the world.

This Hong Kong summer program is not only of interest to students majoring in East Asian Studies, Asia-Pacific Studies, Religion and Visual Arts, but to anyone who wants to complete an elective course in an academically and culturally stimulating environment.
