If you have any questions, please contact acdc@uib.no
Target
Advanced graduate students (PhDs). Applications from those who have recently completed PhDs will also be considered. Note that admission is highly competitive.
Goal
To mix students and lecturers with empirical and dynamical training within climate science and focus on understanding the basic principles and dynamics relating to past and future changes in Greenland climate.
There is likely to be an opportunity to take part in local outreach in either Qeqertarsuaq or in Ilulissat, this will be confirmed after admissions.
ECTS
Participants will receive 4 ECTS credits for the course.
Costs
The cost of the school is 3,000USD per student, which covers accommodation, food, and field excursions. We expect that the summer school will be able to cover this expense for applicants with documented need of financial support. A decision on requests for financial support will be made after the applications have been evaluated.
Note, that participants are expected to pay for their own travel to and from Ilulissat (estimated return trip from Copenhagen to Ilulissat is 1,500USD). In a few rare cases, we may be able to support travel costs. Please detail in your application to what extent your participation is dependent on receiving financial support.
