Physical Acoustics Summer School
PASS 2016
The 2016 Physical Acoustics Summer School, PASS 2016, will be convened at Daniels Summit Lodge, Heber City Utah, south of Salt Lake City Utah and Park City Utah, with arrival on 15 June and departure on 21 June. This is the same venue as was for the 2014 Physical Acoustics Summer School. Participation, including Students, Lecturers, and Discussion Leaders, is limited to fifty. Full-time participation of all is required. Part-timers and visitors are not permitted.
Purpose: The purpose of the Summer School is to bring graduate Students, distinguished Lecturers, and Discussion Leaders together to discuss a wide variety of subjects in physical acoustics. PASS will give students opportunities to meet experts and discuss topics they would not ordinarily encounter in their own colleges and universities.
Students: The focus of PASS is on intermediate and advanced graduate students.
Lecturers and Discussion Leaders: The Organizing Committee will select approximately eight lecture topics, as well as appropriate Lecturers and Discussion Leaders.
Costs: Participants provide their own transportation to and from Salt Lake City Airport (SLC). Some van travel assistance from and to SLC will be available. There is a $200 Student Registration Fee. The other costs of participation, including room and board, based on multiple-occupancy for Students, will be paid by sponsors.
Program: Program information, included in a full Preliminary Schedule, will be available to all those who request the Application Forms from the webpage (above) at the National Center for Physical Acoustics (NCPA) at The University of Mississippi.
Application Deadline: Completed Application Forms for the 2016 Summer School must be received at NCPA no later than Monday 22, February 2016.
Applications: All participants must have a completed Application Form on file. To obtain copies of this Announcement, the Application Form and a Preliminary Schedule, please contact Debra A. Perrier or see the links below:
