https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/29200</a> and the deadline for full consideration is 20 January 2025. We anticipate having up to 35 students in person this year. There is no school fee and the students of the school will have support for lodging and
meals for the duration of the school. The school will feature lectures and tutorials on theoretical and experimental topics related to the physics of the EIC. Additionally, the school will include "hands-on" tutorial sessions. The school is ideally suited
for advanced graduate students and postdocs in nuclear and particle physics.</span></p>
