Regis­trate for the european summer school for scien­to­met­rics (esss)
The esss provides train­ing and state-of the art insight into scien­to­met­rics with the corre­spond­ing methods, proce­dures, indica­tors as well as the avail­able database products for scien­to­met­ric analy­ses. The program combines theoret­i­cal knowl­edge and its practi­cal appli­ca­tion in various contexts ranging from research to the provi­sion of scien­tif­ic policy advice to research evaluation.
The esss trains esearchers, especial­ly PhD candi­dates and early-career researchers, research managers, librar­i­ans and infor­ma­tion scien­tists with a profes­sion­al inter­est in science and technol­o­gy indica­tors and their appli­ca­tion. The summer school takes place from 8th to 12th September.

Regis­tra­tion will open Tuesday, 1st of April 2025 at 9:00 CET.  There is NO appli­ca­tion proce­dure and that the limit­ed seats will be sold on a „first come, first serve“ basis.
