Students will develop skills for organizing a summer school and for preparing an interdisciplinary program around a central theme. They will improve their skills in presenting their knowledge to an interdisciplinary audience and in discussing their specific research with international colleagues from similar fields. They will be able to adapt contents to be shared on a website to promote and inform about a scientific event (conferences, summer schools etc).

The Research Area "Mountain Regions" will host the “International Mountain Conference” in September 2022. To provide attending PhD students with extended possibilities to connect with experts and to discuss their research the “Student for Student Summer School 2022” (S4SSS 2022) will be offered prior to the main conference. That means local PhD students of the doctoral programs of the research area (hereafter called trainers) will develop an interdisciplinary program and guide their international colleagues through the summer school. In this second part of the course the ongoing trainers will continue to develop the S4SSS programme, based on the expertise and needs of the internal and potential external participants that have been identified in part I of the course. In parallel, the students will prepare a web platform to present the program and promote the summer school.

Supervised workshops with independent group work.

Collaboration.

Knowledge of English and willingness to guide and teach other students in September 2022 are required.
