Summer and Winter Schools
The study of written artefacts needs interdisciplinary knowledge and diverse research methods, which are often hard to fit into regular university programs. Summer and winter schools offer intensive short-term training for students and scholars. The CSMC regularly organises international summer schools and winter schools of one to three weeks in its well-equipped facilities, providing excellent infrastructure and administrative support.
