Sikh Studies Summer Institute: 1-week Seminar

For over three decades, the University of Michigan has offered regular courses in Sikh studies and Punjabi language on its central campus. The Summer Institute in Sikh Studies is designed to extend access to Sikh Studies over the summer period for non-UofM students. Starting in 2025, the Summer Institute will offer accredited online courses in Sikh studies with transferrable credit. The purpose of the Summer Institute in Sikh Studies is to connect student communities across Michigan and beyond through a shared experience of cultural education in aspects of Sikh and Punjabi heritage traditions.

The course offered during the Summer 2025 semester is Sikh Philosophy: Its Literature, Concepts and Applications, which is being offered at the undergraduate and graduate level. The online component of this course is followed by a 1-week intensive in-person seminar on the U-M central campus, starting on Monday, July 28th, and concluding on Sunday, August 3rd. Attendance is mandatory for graduate students but entirely optional for undergraduates. See the link for more information- Summer Institute in Sikh Studies

Sessions will take place daily, starting on Monday, July 28th, and concluding on Sunday, August 3rd, at the Thayer Building on the University of Michigan's central campus in downtown Ann Arbor.
