We are looking for enthusiastic students eager to participate in two weeks of open, two-way exchange of ideas and knowledge about taxonomical fieldwork and biodiversity. We offer theoretical courses, fieldwork, labwork and discussions with professional taxonomists, in a splendid natural reserve. If you are accepted, we'll provide your transport to the Summer School, full board and accommodation (probably in dorms) for the full period of your stay.

We expect you to be a teamplayer, eager to learn and with a critical but positive attitude. Some of the field work will be carried out on rough ground. You should take the necessary precautions with regard to walking gear and have an adequate physical condition.

 There are only a limited number of places available (max. 20) and only 1 or 2 students per country will be accepted (depending on the nationalities of the applicants). It is therefore very important that you follow the application procedure to the letter.
