🌊 Next Maymester, dive into 89-01: Shark Ecology & Conservation 🦈 Hands-on fieldwork, real research, & unforgettable experiences. Spots are limited, so don’t miss it! @UNCims 👉 Learn more:go.unc.edu/sharkclass #UNCSummerSchool #Maymester #SharkEcology

I was so proud of my fearless students who starred in the debut of this intensive, Maymester course — few of whom had any previous dramatic experience. I'm also grateful to @UNCSummerSchool for this feature.

Are you watching the TSITP finale? Here's our hot take: if Jere had just gone to Summer School instead of taking an extra semester, none of this drama would have happened! Summer School helps you get ahead and stay ahead! And who doesn't want to spend summer at Carolina? (Sorry, Finch).

Research is a core part of the Carolina undergraduate experience. For Tar Heels who want to get started in #research but don't know how, @unc_our director Bob Pleasants has advice. Don’t be afraid of inexperience, he says. #UNC faculty are happy to help go.unc.edu/x7SDe

The UL will close at the end of the Fall semester for renovations. Here's what you need to know. Learn more at: go.unc.edu/ULRenovation

Sink your teeth into this Maymester class! Tar Heels dove into EMES 89-01M to study shark senses, drivers of change among sharks, and the role these top predators play in keeping their enviornment in balance. Don't let this one swim by next summer!

Any of these look familiar? Be sure to check out the most artistic scavenger hunt in town, only open for a few more days! UNC Summer School is a proud contributor to Uproar, an event dedicated to supporting the community through the arts. Learn more at uproarfestnc.com!

Welcome back, Tar Heels! Wishing you a great start to the semester. Let’s make it a great one! 📚🩵🐏 #FDOC #GoHeels #UNC #UNCChapelHill

Congratulations to UNC Summer School student Alyssa Giangrasso, who took 3rd place in the Coinbase Early Talent Competition! This is what summer learning at Carolina is all about: empowering students to grow beyond the classroom, into leaders and innovators. Go Heels!

And just like that, Summer Session II is a wrap! Thank you to all our amazing students, mentors, and staff who made this Carolina Summer one to remember. ☀️🐏 #CarolinaSummer2025 #UNC

We’ve always known that summer classes can be catalysts to future success, but it has never been quite so literal than with Chem 262L! As part of a research project, these students got hands-on experience with synthesizing catalysts. Lab coats? Check. Learning? Double check.

Summer Spotlight: In a 1 week workshop, multimedia students take their cameras on the road to tell real stories in real communities. With support from professional coaches, students dive into the stories and share them via a documentary website 👉️ cpjw.unc.edu/2025/

📚☀️ Summer Session II starts today! Welcome back, Tar Heels! New classes, memories, same Carolina spirit 💙 Let’s make it count! 😎🐏 @uncchapelhill @UNCSummerSchool #UNCSummer #FDOC #UNC #GDTBATH #SummerSchool

This summer, ENEC 304 students traded the classroom for the coastline. Partnering with the FL DEP, they removed invasive plants, restored native habitats, cleared marine debris, and turned their findings into a report to support conservation efforts. Science. Service. Impact.
