The winter school is targeted at final year Bachelor students and Master students from different disciplines, as well as at young professionals and researchers, interested in deepening their knowledge about diamonds and its industry.
The live week of the winter school takes place from 6 - 10 February 2023 and is preceded by a preparatory online programme, during which primary insights will be given so participants can duly prepare for the course. These preparatory talks, readings and clips can be processed at one’s own pace and will cover all topics dealt with during the winter school. All participants are invited to follow this track, as a more equal starting level of understanding will favour collaboration and maximise the knowledge transfer during the winter school itself.
3 ECTS credits are awarded upon successful completion of the programme.
