Introducing: Summit Resources for Global Education
Our multi-city academic programs take students into companies, research centers, and institutions where global ideas are shaped in practice. Summit Resources extends that same learning philosophy into the digital space. It is a shared library where academic and applied resources can be collected, organized, and explored across disciplines and regions.
While Summit Study Abroad programs emphasize learning through place, experience, and reflection, Summit Resources supports learning before, during, and after travel. It creates continuity across the academic journey. Students can prepare ahead of a program, connect theory to experience while abroad, and continue developing their understanding long after returning home. The purpose is consistent with Summit’s mission. To support globally engaged learning that connects ideas, institutions, and real-world context.
Supporting Our Students: A Shared Online Library for Global Learning
Summit Resources is built on a simple principle. Learning is stronger when knowledge is shared and revisited over time. In an increasingly interconnected world, no single textbook or fixed syllabus can capture the pace of change. Students and educators need flexible tools that allow ideas, sources, and perspectives to evolve.
This platform functions as an open academic library. Articles, videos, podcasts, research papers, and learning materials can be collected and organized into modular collections. A student may assemble resources related to a course, a region, or a research interest. An instructor may curate materials to support a class, program, or academic project. Everything is designed to be adaptable, reusable, and easy to share.
At its core, Summit Resources supports transparent and collaborative learning. By making it easier to organize and share materials, it creates space for students and faculty to engage with global topics thoughtfully and collectively.

Why we’re building this
Education does not end when a course concludes or a program ends. Global systems, technologies, and ideas continue to evolve, and learning must evolve with them. Summit Resources exists to support that continuity. It helps students extend their learning beyond the classroom, supports educators in integrating new material, and provides a shared foundation for academic exploration across borders.
