Calls for Applications
• European Doctoral School of Demography, school year 2010-11.
• IMPRSD summer course on Microsimulation, 10-16 June 2010 in Rostock, Germany.
Deadline for applications: 15 April 2010.
1. European Doctoral School of Demography:
The European Doctoral School of Demography (EDSD) invites applications for school year 2010-2011. Entering its sixth successful year, the EDSD is an eleven-month program that is offered every year, with the goal to provide students in the first year of their doctoral studies with an appropriate high-level education in demography. Students will acquire a solid knowledge base on causes and consequences of demographic change, population data, statistical and mathematical demography, as well as modeling, simulation and forecasting. The School’s courses are structured in such a way that the students work on precise formulation of a thesis topic and early steps of their dissertations. The language of the School is English.
In the upcoming school year the School will be held at two different locations. The preparatory courses (from early September to end of October) will be offered at the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research (http://www.demogr.mpg.de) in Rostock, Germany. The core courses (from early November to end of July) will be held at the Center for Economic Demography at Lund University (http://www.ed.lu.se/EN), Sweden. The EDSD does not charge fees. Full fellowships are available for up to 20 first-year doctoral students associated with or potentially associated with European universities.
Successful completion of the School results in a Master in demography offered by the University of Lund as well as a European Research Certificate of Demography provided under the auspices of the European Association for Population Studies (EAPS).
The application deadline is April 15, 2010. Please visit our website at http://www.eds-demography.org for more information on the EDSD curriculum and application instructions.
2. IMPRSD summer course on Microsimulation:
The International Max Planck Research School for Demography (IMPRSD) invites applications for a summer course on Microsimulation using Socsim, 10-16 June 2010 at the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research in Rostock, Germany. The application deadline is 15 April 2010.
