Summer School
Together with the PK Nachwuchs, the LOC organizes its first Summer School as a pre-program of the annual meeting. This is aimed at master students and young PhD students who are interested in learning methodological as well as soft skill competences from the different areas of GMDS.
In four sessions, the disciplines will introduce themselves to the participants and share methods relevant to their respective disciplines. In addition, there will be a cross-disciplinary method session.
In addition to the sessions, there will be a social program offering various opportunities to network with other young scientists or GMDS seniors. Accommodation in the youth hostel not far from the campus and a dinner will be provided. The costs for this will be covered by the GMDS.
The Summer School will be held on September 16 and 17, 2023 in Heilbronn at the Bildungscampus. Registrations will be accepted via the conference registration. GMDS membership is a prerequisite. Those who are not yet members can become members here. Student membership is free of charge.
Note: Registration for young PhD students is now open!
