The coordinators and the administrative staff of the ZWN support the winter/summer school hosts in choosing a venue, in designing and printing posters and flyers and help in attending to winter school participants.

Application:
According to the multidisciplinary character of the ZWN, postdoctoral scholars of all research disciplines may apply. Alternating every other year, the program is open to members of the University of Konstanz only and to external applicants.
