How to apply

How to apply?

All participants must submit the Summer School application form with a CV and a brief statement of interest before the application deadline. Available space of the school is limited due to the planned computer exercises and HW experiments. Applicants will be selected taking into account the provided information, while keeping balanced the distribution of participants from industry (developers, engineers, etc.) and academia (PhD students, Master students, and well motivated Bachelor students will be selected equivalently) to facilitate the transfer of academic results to industrial applications. Additionally, applicants can provide a title and abstract of a talk, in case they want to present their work to other participants. Although we highly recommend presenting your work during the Summer School to support networking and future cooperation, the presentation is not mandatory and the provided title and abstract of the talk will not be a factor in the selection process. The Summer School 2024 will also be a CTU accredited course for 2 ECTS.
