THE BIG PICTURE @VISESS
The “Big Picture” Talk series is organised by VISESS, the “Vienna International School of Earth and Space Sciences”, which is offering an internationally oriented training to current and future doctoral students at the Faculty of Earth Sciences, Geography and Astronomy of the University of Vienna. As humanity is facing grand challenges such as climate change or resource depletion, this new doctoral school is addressing these challenges through inter- and transdisciplinary academic research connecting the cosmos with planet Earth, its environment and the anthroposphere. With the Big Picture Talks organised by VISESS-students, the doctoral school aims to present current topics of scientific and societal interest to the public.
Scientific Organising Committee of the VISESS Doctoral School:
