Fees

The school is free of charge for all participants. The hotels (in Prague for the students from Munich and in Garching for the students from Prague) will be booked and payed by us in advance. Students from neither Prague nor Munich will have to pay for their accommodations in one of the cities themselves.

Such generous funding is only possible because of Bavarian-Czech Academic Agency. They provided funds for this workshop via their "Bayerisch-tschechische Sommer-/Winterschulen 2024" funding programme, grant number BTHA-SW-2024-6.
