Application Form
To apply for the School please fill out the online
application form.
The online form will collect your basic contact information, a SHORT
statement of current research (just a few sentences), and allow you to
upload an (optional) "Curriculum Vitae & Publications" document.
All materials are collected online via the
AcademicJobsOnline website; do not send hard-copies of any materials.
AcademicJobsOnline will also send an email request for a letter of reference to someone
you specify. We only need a very SHORT reference; just a few sentences
stating that you have the necessary background for the school is sufficient.
Review of applications begins: 1 March 2018, and will continue through
as space is available. (Note: All available financial aid has been
distributed.)
Enrollment will be limited to 80 participants.
A registration fee of US$700 covers the participant's portion of lodging
as well as most meals. A limited number of fellowships covering all
or part of the registration fee will be available.
EMAIL: For questions, you may contact:
cteq.school@gmail.com
Do not send applications to this email -- all application material
is collected online.
