Summer

 Camp

Only by thousands of miles of journey, 

will you know how broad the world is!

We have set off again in 2024 summer camp! Our study tour brought our students to Oxford university, to engage with and communicate with the world-class professors face to face, immerse in the academic atmosphere of a top university and learn about its diversified culture in a comprehensive way, so as to enable our students to see the world, the people and themselves in a larger platform.

We believe that this two-week study tour is an immersion journey of history, culture and education. Our Oxford academic camp is not only a trip to explore knowledge, but also a journey that our students are able to communicate with the world, cooperate with elite students from all over the world, to follow their footsteps and seek for excellence, and to experience what it takes to live oversea independently.

Cultural exploration not only requires highbrow art and literature, but also popular arts.

In order to experience the most authentic life in Oxford, students are arranged to have class, live, and dine in Oxford University which enjoys a long history and rich culture.

During the class, the luminary scholars, professors, and doctoral students organized many academic lectures and workshops under the topics of artificial intelligence and future technology. The professors analyzed the underlying logic behind through a large number of real cases, so as to inspire the students’ interest in scientific research and enthusiasm for science. In addition, the students are given the public lectures, which is important for their academic and vocational development in the future, and special training on written skills.

While sharing guidance of applying to Oxford, the professors explained how they searched for the targeted candidates in multidimensional ways and the crucial steps to increase application rate to Oxford in their professional and academic perspective. In addition, doctoral students in Oxford shared their very own applying experience, as w ell as provided opinions and suggestions which are valuable for reference.

Apart from immersing in profound cultural heritage of the world-class university, students are also able to communicate with the British students, and experience the local customs and traditions, search for the most authentic British culture, learning while traveling.

Opportunities to engage with Oxford professors: get a head start on your application to the world's top schools!

In addition to their studies, the students also developed a strong bond with Oxford professors and David, Dean of New College. The positive interactions between students and faculty allows the students to gain an in-depth understanding of the Oxford application process, including important information such as personal statements, letters of recommendation, academic transcripts, and interview techniques.

After two weeks of spending time with each other, our students exchanged contact  with them before their departure. This not only facilitates further academic exchanges with the professors, but also gives students the opportunity to obtain their personal recommendation letters, which undoubtedly puts them one step ahead in applying to the world's top universities!

The Oxford study tour in depth and breadth not only gave the students a clearer understanding of their future academic goals and career planning, but also planted a seed of dreaming for their future application to Oxford University and other top universities in the world.

We look forward to working together to let the seed of dream be able to grow freely under the nourishment of sunshine and rain.

Techer Chris, the camp leader & science teacher at Merchiston, says:

As a programme with deep collaboration between MIS Shenzhen school and Oxford University, this summer camp provided a unique immersive English learning environment for our children, with the aim of allowing them to experience the purely academic atmosphere in Oxford University and to build deep friendships with Oxford professors during this trip.


In addition, unlike other camps, this MIS Study Tour involves face-to-face teaching by experienced senior Oxford professors and PhD students in Oxford university, which ensures the top end quality of teaching and academic rigor.

In addition to their studies, we also organized visits to various museums and historical sites in England to experience the unique charm of the British education and cultural heritage of British history. These activities will not only enrich the students' academic experience, but also enhance their global perspective and comprehensive abilities in a significant way.

In the future, we are committed to providing students with more opportunities to interact with the world's top universities, helping them to stand out in the globalized talents competition.

Thoughts About Growing Up:

Sisi, Year 12 student at MIS

For me, the most memorable and enjoyable lessons of the summer camp is Philosophy, Politics, Economics (PPE) and Law. The teachers who taught the classes were very friendly and they enjoyed the insightful questions that the students asked and responded to us carefully. Answering these questions usually required deeper thinking, as well as extensive discussion or debate, which made the process of thinking and discussion very enjoyable for me.


In addition, I was able to obtain contact information of several Oxford professors and can interact with them in the future. All in all, what we have got is far beyond our expectations.

Vivian Fu, Year 12 student at MIS

During the tour, there were a lot of unforgettable moments, both natural and cultural.


In Oxford, I met small animals almost every day. The most interesting one was a very timid little fox. I never see a fox outside of a zoo.


Another thing that exceeded my expectations is that the professors here are very kind, and they are not as strict as I thought they would be. In fact, they are more than happy to discuss questions with their students, even if it's just a simple childish question.


I believe that every student has gained a lot from this study tour, and one of the most valuable lessons for me is to learn to constantly strive for excellence and to become a better version of myself.


Be brave, be honest, be passionate, and be confident in what you choose and decide to do!

成长的思考:

曼校12年级学生Sisi



对我来说,此次夏校最难忘和最享受的课程是哲学、政治和经济学(PPE)以及法律。授课的老师们都非常友好,他们喜欢学生提出富有见地的问题,并认真给予回应。解答这些疑问通常需要更深入地思考,以及广泛的讨论或辩论,这让我非常享受思考和讨论的过程。


此外,我还获得了几位牛津大学教授的联系方式,并在未来有机会和他们互动交流。总而言之,我们收获了远超预期的成长。


曼校12年级学生Vivian Fu



游学期间许多时刻都是难以忘怀的,无论是自然的还是人文的。


在牛津大学,我几乎每天都能遇到小动物。其中最有趣的是,我遇到了一只非常胆小的小狐狸,这是我在动物园外从未见过的小动物。


另外一点超出我预期的是这里的教授非常和蔼可亲,他们并不像我想象得那么严肃。实际上他们非常乐意和同学探讨问题,即便是简单幼稚的提问。


我相信这次游学中每个同学都收获满满,其中对我来说,最宝贵的收获是学会了不断追求卓越,努力成为更好的自己。


要勇敢,要诚实,要富有激情,要对你选择和决定要做的事情充满信心!
