First part | Second part | Third part


As the first part of the summer school, The Summer School on DFT: Theories and Practical Aspects will be held from July 2nd to 6th. The lectures will be given in the morning session and the first session in the afternoon. After the lectures, each of participants will conduct exercise or own problems using a machine installed in ISSP. The own problem will be the issues that each participant will discuss in the research proposal submitted in the registration. In the last dat (July 6th), every participants will give a presentation on calculations that they conducted to share information during all the participants.

The following program is still temporal. We will update it once more details are fixed.
