After two pandemic-related cancelations, the Sixth International Summer School in Glaciology organized by the University of Alaska, Fairbanks (UAF) / Oslo University, will (hopefully) be held in McCarthy, central Alaska, from 7 to 17 June 2022 (just before the IGS Symposium on Maritime Glaciers, to be held in Juneau, Alaska, 19 - 24 June; https://www.igsoc.org/symposia/2022/juneau2022).

The summer school will provide a comprehensive overview of the physics of glaciers and current research frontiers in glaciology with focus on quantitative glaciology and remote sensing. The course is open to 28 graduate students from around the world targeting primarily early stage PhD students who perform glacier-related research. It will be taught by faculty of UAF’s glaciology group and several invited guest instructors from outside Alaska.

Application deadline: 15 January 2022.
