This immersive programme entitled “Pathways to Sustainable Aviation: An Interdisciplinary Research School” offers a unique opportunity to dive into the latest scientific advances and the most innovative research shaping the future of zero-emission aviation. Designed for PhD candidates, postdoctoral researchers, research engineers from both engineering disciplines and the human and social sciences, the Research School fosters a truly interdisciplinary learning environment where multiple perspectives meet and enrich one another.
Throughout the week, participants will engage with an outstanding line-up of international experts who will share cutting-edge insights into technological, environmental, economic, and societal dimensions of sustainable aviation.
The programme features:
– Plenary lectures
– Two parallel course tracks, one dedicated to engineering and the other to humanities and social sciences
– Collaborative projects carried out in small, mixed-discipline teams
– A flagship activity of the program, the collective Gigamap enables participants to confront the complexity of the aviation sustainability transition by jointly constructing a scientifically grounded, peer-discussed representation of the aviation system
Hosted in the inspiring and peaceful environment of Toulouse, the aerospace capital at the heart of Europe, the programme also offers exclusive visits to Airbus and the Aeroscopia Museum, immersing participants in the rich past, present, and future of aviation and offering the ideal backdrop for deep reflection, meaningful conversations, and new professional connections.
We warmly invite enthusiastic PhD students, postdocs, and early-career researchers passionate about shaping the future of sustainable aviation to join us for this exceptional learning experience.
As the number of places is limited to 30 participants, applicants should pre-register directly on the dedicated website by joining their curriculum vitae, the duly completed pre-registration form, and a copy of their passport (for non-Europeans applicants).
We very much look forward to welcoming you to the first ISA research school!
