The UCLA Department of Economics carefully considers many factors when planning our Summer Session offerings. We are currently determining which courses will best serve students in the 2026 summer session. While session offerings are subject to change, they are expected to be similar to last year’s program.
We welcome enrollments in our summer courses from all college students. Our summer sessions courses attract a diverse student body, with students from UCLA, from two and four year universities in the United States, and from international schools. We welcome enrollments in Economics 1 and 2 from students attending high school in the United States.
UCLA Precollege Summer Institutes provide highly-motivated high school students the opportunity to earn college credit while advancing their skill set in one area of study. During these three-week concentrated programs, students experience lectures, hands-on learning, field trips, group projects, and other activities that provide an intensive and engrossing study of their chosen subject.
