5th HGSFP Winterschool 2012

Link to the 10th HGSFP Winterschool 2017

University Center Obergurgl 21-25 January 2012

Description: The Winterschool 2012 is a students project of the HGSFP for scientific exchange and professional developement. The scientific program (see below) covers all branches of the HGSFP and focuses on interdisciplinarity. Therefore, every lecture starts with an introductory part, so that also students from other branches can attend. An important part are the poster sessions, where every student is obliged to present his or her recent work and has the opportunity to connect with other members of the HGSFP. The "Forschungszentrum Obergurgl" (http://www.uibk.ac.at/obergurgl/) provides lecture and meeting rooms, accomodation, as well as half-board. The scientific program is completed by an introduction to the tasks of the HGSFP, a social event and a unique location next to the alps for group activities. A bus transfer from Heidelberg will be provided. Online registration will be open from 10.-24.10.2011.

Included benefits are:

  • Accommodation in 2 to 3 bed rooms
  • Half board
  • Bus transfer Heidelberg - Obergurgl and back
  • Joint excursion
