IUTAM Symposia and Instructional Summer Schools

The aim of any symposium sponsored by IUTAM is to assemble a group of active scientists within a well-defined field for the development of science within that field. The purpose of an IUTAM Instructional Summer School is to provide lectures by leading experts in a new or emerging field of science and engineering in order to foster developments in that field.

A calendar of upcoming IUTAM Symposia and Summer Schools can be found on the IUTAM website.  A listing of all past symposia (through 2007) can also be found on the IUTAM website, including information on proceedings where available.

View a historical list of IUTAM Symposia held in the United States (17KB PDF).

How to Host a Symposium or School

Proposals from the United States should be submitted through the U.S. National Committee, which competitively screens and forwards them with recommendations for consideration by the IUTAM General Assembly, which meets every two years. The next call for proposals will be in 2012 for symposia and schools to be held in 2014 and 2015.
