South German Catalysis Institute

Objective:

Professors from the Universities Erlangen- Nuremberg, TU Munich, Stuttgart, Bayreuth and Ulm, have teamed up in a regional cooperation (Baden-Württemberg, Bayern) to collectively offer a broad and comprehensive education in fundamental aspects and common principles in Catalysis. The course encompasses all aspects of catalysis and does not concentrate on specific subdisciplines in order to exemplify similarities and differences.

Description:

The course (Catalysis-Fundamental Aspects and Common Principles) was first introduced in the winter semester 1999/2000, and is currently taking place for the sixth time. Presentations with specific topics will follow, which will also be topically relevant to the general interest of the course participants.

In consideration to the future professional environment of the participants and because of partially foreign participants, the course is held in English.

Attendance is also open for interested studens and young researchers working in the field of catalysis from other institutes in southern Germany. For organizational purposes, the number of course participants is limited to 50 people.
