Begins: August 2010

The Austrian Archaeological Institute (OEAI) and four University Institutes for Classical Archaeology and for Archaeology, at the Universities of Graz, Innsbruck, Salzburg and Vienna, together will offer a Summer School in Athens beginning in the summer of 2010.
The Summer School will be conducted by a team composed in the following manner: a research scientist each from the ÖAI, from one of the four University Institutes, and from a neighbouring discipline.

Students who are enrolled at one of the four universtities, pursuing a Master's degree or a Doctorate, are eligible to apply; the participants (max. 12) will be selected by the team directors.
The two-week long programme on site will be prepared by the participants during the course of the preceding summer semester.

The thematic framework determined by the team directors for summer 2010 is as follows:
"Sanctuaries in Athens and Attica: from the cult beginnings until the present"
