Since 2003, the Interuniversity Research Centre for Comparative Law organizes annually a Summer School in Comparative Law, with classes given in English by Italian and foreign professors.

Over the years the Summer School has been focusing on both general topics and monographic themes.

The project also sets itself the task of offering to undergraduate students, PhD students as well as to professionals an opportunity to reflect on issues related to intercultural dialogue.

In organizing the Summer School we collaborated with Baton Rouge Louisiana State University (Louisiana-USA), the William S. Boyd School of Law (Nevada),  the University of California at Davis - Law School and currently and the Universities of Aix-Marseille, Utrecht and Opole.

Since 2007, also students from the Russian Law Academy participates to the Summer School.
