The Panthéon, in Paris's Latin Quarter.

The Paris Summer Institute is a five-week academic program in international and comparative law.  The Institute, which celebrated its fifteenth anniversary in 2008, is cosponsored by Cornell Law School and Université Paris I Panthéon-Sorbonne.

Every year, the Institute welcomes a select group of law students from around the world to study law in the heart of Paris.  Students take advantage of our strong international faculty, expansive English-language curriculum, and unique cultural and professional offerings. 

The 2008 Summer Institute took place from June 30 until August 2, 2008.
