Easy 4 Week Summer Courses at Temple
2022 is set to offer the best of all worlds for spring and summer learning: in-person experiences, online programs, and opportunities available both online and in-person. Virtual learning is here to stay, but on-campus programs are also making a comeback. While programs are still being developed and finalized, there is a learning opportunity for most every interest, skill level, and budget. Regardless of the delivery format, engaging in activities outside the classroom will add a layer to students' identities and give them an edge in college admissions. Bonus points if they make a positive impact on others in their community in the meantime.
The opportunities below are divided into four categories: Summer Courses & Pre-College Programs, Independent Research Programs, Online Classes, and Community Service. While we have categorized these programs by subject where applicable, many of them offer learning opportunities across a wide variety of disciplines.
We invite you to explore the courses, programs, research opportunities, and service opportunities that are available this summer. Enjoy your exploration!

Online Classes Hosted By Learning Platforms
In addition to classes hosted by colleges, there are several online platforms that deliver course material for independent learners to work at their own pace. Each platform addresses different niches and levels of expertise. Below we have provided a sampling of courses from five learning platforms -- Coursera, edX, Udemy, Udacity, and Khan Academy -- and have organized them by area of interest. Keep in mind that some courses are school-sponsored, such as courses available from Harvard on edX, while others are not, such as those available on Udemy. You will want to explore each platform to see the breadth of offerings.
Coursera: This platform works with universities and other organizations to offer online courses, specializations, and degrees in a variety of subjects, such as engineering, data science, machine learning, mathematics, business, computer science, digital marketing, humanities, medicine, biology, social sciences, and others. Of interest to many students is a new class offered by John Hopkins on the coronavirus pandemic and how it can be combated through epidemiology.
