[Nsa] 2007 ASP Summer Colloquium

[Paula Fisher]

Call for Proposals from the NCAR Staff
2007 ASP Summer Colloquium

Deadline: October 30, 2006

ASP invites proposals from the NCAR staff for the 
annual summer colloquium topic for 2007. As you 
may know, ASP hosts a summer colloquium designed 
for graduate students. We favor subjects that 
represent new or rapidly developing areas or 
research for which good course material may not 
yet be available. The colloquium brings together 
lecturers and graduate students to NCAR for two 
weeks for classroom presentations and other forms 
of instruction and interaction. ASP provides 
support for the costs of the meeting, typically 
for about 25 student participants and up to 10 
lecturers from the community at large.

Your proposal should be 2-3 pages in length. It 
should include some detail about how the 
colloquium will be structured, but not a 
day-by-day schedule. You may wish to include some 
information about hands on tutorials, along with 
prospective scientific co-organizers and 
lecturers. Also, who are the target students? 
Please keep in mind that the colloquium is not 
meant to support ongoing workshop activities; it 
must be a stand-alone event, and it cannot be 
longer than two weeks. If you plan to include 
hands on computer tutorials or interactive 
exercises, please let us know who will be 
providing the systems support. Please note that 
the ASP has reserved the CTTC for potential use, 
but your proposal should include detailed plans 
for the support and use of any other computer resources.

The ASP schedule allows for your proposed 
colloquium to occur during one of the following 
periods and associated locations:
      June 4 ­ 15, 2007 ML and CTTC
      July 23 ­ August 3, 2007: CG and CTTC
Please indicate your preference in your proposal.
