TIME
The ODC Summer 2023 will take place July 1-28, 2023.
PLACE
There will be two locations for ODC Summer 2023: Osijek and Almaty. In addition to these locations, if we will have enough students, we will organize an additional location in St.Petersburg as well. Participants who could not travel could join the program online.
A satellite location is a place where at least one of the mentors is physically present to interact with students, and where facilities like meeting space, library, and accommodation are available. For ODC Summer 2023, there is one satellite location planned in Almaty, Kazakhstan in addition to the main location in Osijek, Croatia. Potential doctoral students who can travel to these locations will attend in person and be connected to the other satellite location digitally. For those unable to travel to these satellite locations, an online option is available.
