The Summer School of Personality Science (SSPS) is a week-long summer school sponsored by EAPP with approximately 12 –16 graduate students (master's and PhD level) and approximately 6 – 8 internationally renowned experts. It is broadly geared towards providing cutting-edge and specialized education as well as hands-on experience to young and budding personality psychologists from all over the world. The mini-curriculum, with different 1- to 2-hour course formats (e.g., keynotes, seminars, workshops, panel discussions, mentoring, luncheons), is designed to address a broad variety of current and important topics in personality science as well as provide student attendees with career advice and networking opportunities.

Additional Details
In 2022, the 2nd Summer School of Personality Science (SSPS) is set to take place in Madrid (Spain) from July 3 to 10, right before the European Conference on Personality (ECP). We are currently planning an in-person summer school in Madrid. However, should this not be possible due to pandemic reasons or restrictions, then the summer school may need to be held virtually.
