Open Session - HYBRID

Room: Mødelokale 1.1

Organiser: Lise Lotte Sørensen (Aarhus University, Denmark)

  

Session Description: 

Please join the discussions on how to develop deeper institutional transnational higher educational collaboration across the Fram Strait aiming to develop a ´Exploring the largest Arctic climatic and environmental gradient between Svalbard and Greenland ´master course. Bridging the Fram Strait, we base this ambition on extensive use of the unique, large national and international research infrastructure investments made in Svalbard and Greenland within SIOS and GIOS. Together they provide unique access to research infrastructure, observations and data covering the Fram Strait region. All SIOS and GIOS members can be involved in this higher educational ambition, but also others interested. The potential is large for developing a very attractive unique, innovative joint interdisciplinary master course including minimum 2-3 institutions on both sides of the gradient open to all master students.
