The Scottish Universities' International Summer School (SUISS) was founded as a non-profit organisation by Professor David Daiches in 1947. The School brings together students and academics who, irrespective of their national, religious, or cultural difference, share a love of literature.

Each summer, we run courses in British and Irish literature and culture from 1900 to the Present, as well as a Creative Writing programme. We welcome undergraduates, postgraduates, teachers and lecturers from all over the world: in 2012, our students came from 32 different countries.

SUISS runs for a total of six weeks. Students may choose to come for the full programme, or attend either the first, the second, or the third two-week term, or a combination of the modules for a continuous programme of study throughout the six weeks.
