International Summer School Scholarships on Regulation of Local Public Services at Turin School

The Turin School of Local Regulation is pleased to announce the official launch of the 19th Edition of the International Summer School on regulation of local public services  which will take place from 5-16 September 2016.

Turin School of Local Regulation, Torino, Italy

Summer School program on regulation of local public services (e.g. waste, water, public transport, district heating, sport facilities)

Due to a limited number of available places, not all applicants on the ISS reserve list will be included in the class of 2016.

Undergraduate students at their last year, graduate students and officials from the Public Administration (municipalities, counties, regional bodies) and regulatory agencies.

Participation is free for non-OECD countries and for Countries entering the EU from 2004 onwards.  Selected participants from OECD countries and European Countries that entered the Union before 2004 can benefit from very low fees (150 EUR).

The Turin School will provide selected participants with 2-week free accommodation in the University residence in Torino, and all the teaching materials.

Curricula are evaluated on the basis of three main criteria:

• relevance of applicant’s studies and professional experience / current job position to the topics of the Summer School programme
• balanced geographical distribution of selected participants (OECD / non-OECD members; distribution per continent; inclusion of applicants from Countries non represented in the previous editions)
• balanced distribution of educational background (e.g. economics; environmental engineering; law; public administration; …)

Applications are currently closed.

Applications are done online. Deadline is 5 June 2016.
