Summer Camp and International Activities

Participation in the SciREX Program

GiST, as one of the 6 member universities of the SciREX Program, joins the Summer Camp and International Symposia as follows:


Summar Camp

Summer Camp has annually been held at one of the six member universities with a topic of the year as in the table below. It is a few days-program that can be participated by university students, researchers and policy makers. It depends on the year whether English language groups are formed and also the participation by non-SciREX institutions is allowed. Thus, it is important to be alert to the notice, if interested in participating in the event. The one held in 2018 shows how it was as an example (click the "STI and Society in 2030 below).
