International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) Young Scientists Summer Program

The International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) conducts inter-disciplinary scientific studies on environmental, economic, technological and social issues in the context of human dimensions of global change. From the beginning of June until the end of August, participants in IIASA\\'s YSSP work within IIASA\\'s research projects under the guidance of senior scientists. Participants not only develop and expand their research topics in the interdisciplinary setting of IIASA\\'s research projects, but have the opportunity to present their research findings in a seminar attended by all of the participants as well as IIASA staff. In addition, a program of seminars and lectures by short-term visiting scholars and collaborators provides exposure to research being done on global problems within IIASA and at other research institutions around the world.
