- Tutorial: A weekly tutorial of 4 hours each, where tutors will provide you with the necessary skills to be well prepared for the upcoming simulation conferences.

- Conferences: Participation in the simulation conferences in Bamberg, Erlangen, Erfurt and New York.
Project Costs
To cover the costs associated with the project, the total price for each participant is approximately �700. These are to be paid in advance. In addition, participants are responsible for their own travel to the USA. We strive to organize sponsors and academic grants to keep the financial burden as low as possible. It is possible that participants will be reimbursed a portion of the amount paid at the end of the project. This usually takes place in July or August.
