Location of Aarhus University

From 2-6 July 2012 the second Summer school on Theories in Environmental and Economic Psychology (STEEP) will be held at Aarhus University. The aim of the summer school is to provide PhD students in environmental and economic psychology the opportunity to collaborate with senior scholars in this field, and to meet with other PhD students that work in the same area.

In addition to keynote lectures by leading scholars in the field, workshops will be organised around different themes focussing on real-life sustainability issues. In the workshops, PhD students will work on theory, methodology and research designs in environmental and economic psychology to address real-life sustainability issues.

This summer school is a unique chance for senior and junior researchers on environmental and economic psychology to collaborate.
