Whether you’re joining a two-day intensive, a blended course mixing online and campus learning, or a hands-on project, each learning experience is tailored to your needs and pace.
Summer schools
Every summer, WASP holds its Community Building Summer School, welcoming new PhD students and newly recruited researchers to the program for a week of getting to know each other and to make industry visits.
WASP also holds at least one themed summer school per year, with a focus on a topic of interest to the WASP community. Previous topics have included generative AI, resilience and regulation, embodied AI, synthesis of human communication and more.
