What is the LESC?
The LESC is a European-Asian wide conference for students to exchange on our Liberal Education programs. It is a significant opportunity for students to rethink and reconnect in the evolving landscape of Liberal Arts and Sciences, both locally and globally.
Returning after Covid-19, we are thrilled to announce that the Liberal Education Students Conference 2024 is being held at the University College Freiburg.
Theme
