Promoting young scientists

Students participating in field campaigns

At present there are no internships available.

During the extensive inspections of the Vernagtferner in spring and autumn, students are given the opportunity to gain practical experience and participate in the measurements. For several years, the University of Bremen has been setting up its base camp for the glaciology field exercise at the Vernagtferner gauging station. Students are also involved in expeditions to the more remote work areas, for both the fieldwork itself and the subsequent data analysis.

Lectures

Staff members from the working group give lectures and supervise exercises on navigation, glaciology and gravimetry at various universities (e. g. TU Munich, LMU Munich, Norwegian University of Life Sciences Ås, Norway).

Final papers

The working group supervises Bachelor’s, Master’s and PhD theses of students on various geoscientific university courses, e.g. geodesy, geography, hydrology and meteorology.
