Events – Summer Schools and Retreats

Summer Schools

Every other year we offer a five-days physics summer school which will focus on one of the main research fields of the Graduate School.
The summer school will cover a broad program of introductory and more advanced lectures.

We aim at having internationally renowned scientists as lecturers and are open to graduate students from other institutes worldwide. Short presentations by PhD students about their own research enrich the program.

Retreats

The three-days retreats offer our members, fellows and associated members the opportunity to get to know each other better and discuss physics in an informal atmosphere. Students can present their research projects in short presentations followed by discussions. In addition, lecture courses by distinguished scientists from leading institutions will be given, covering fields of relevance to the Graduate School and broadening our physics horizon.

Workshops

During our one to three-day workshops we cover training needs that are specifically tailored to the needs of our members. PhD students are welcome to address ideas and possible topics to the coordination office or to the student representative.
