Ministry of Education launches 2025 Summer Abroad Programme

Empowering future generations

The initiative supports the MoE’s vision to equip future generations with the knowledge and skills to contribute to national development, as well as to enrich students’ academic journeys by enabling them to access prestigious institutions.

Global training and enrichment

Held in July and August, the programme offers students high-level global training and educational experiences to broaden their horizons, enhance their academic and personal skills, and deepen their understanding of innovation in fields such as AI, leadership, and entrepreneurship.

It also helps them make informed career choices, build global knowledge networks, and develop the long-term skills needed to excel in education and innovation.

Leadership perspective

Sarah Al Amiri, Minister of Education, said, “The Summer Abroad program offers students hands-on training at top international scientific institutes, fostering academic growth, personal development, and broader cultural and scientific perspectives.”

International exposure in innovation hubs

The 2025 Summer Abroad Programme includes field visits and specialised training in six top innovation hubs – Singapore, China, Japan, South Korea, Russia, and Malaysia.

Students are supported by 29 trained academic supervisors, with this year’s edition of the programme also welcoming students of determination from Japan and South Korea.
