+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
SUMMER SCHOOL - CROATIA 2019
contact person: Ing. Miloslav Petrtýl, Ph.D. (petrtyl@af.czu.cz)
We were visiting the Mediterranean with students since 2004. These field-trips are an optional part of the subject Marine biology (in Czech). Some photos to memorize one of the last year: facebook photo galery
CONSIDERING THAT THIS WILL BE A FIRST YEAR OF THE SUMMER SCHOOL, SOME PLANS AND ACTIVITIES MAY CHANGE. ALL PARTICIPANTS SHOULD BE ABLE TO RESIST TO THE CERTAIN LEVEL OF IMPROVISATION :).
WHERE: This year Summer school will consist of two parts. One week will be held at the University of Zadar and second week at the diving base in Pakoštane (this part is obligatory only for the Czech students), Croatia.
WHEN: 16th - 28th September 2019 (two weeks)
HOW: send your CV and short motivation letter in English if interested (petrtyl@af.czu.cz). Use "zadar 2019" as the e-mail subject.
WHAT DO WE OFFER
Overall goal of the summer school: Introduction to the biotopes along the coastal zone (freshwater, brackish and marine).
Educational objectives: The school will incorporate intensive lectures focused on Living marine resources, Aquaculture production, Biodiversity conservation, Marine research, Sustainable use of coastal ecosystems.
Planned activities: The summer school combines theoretical and practical classes as well as field trips in central Croatia (mostly around Zadar and Pakoštane).
WHAT DO WE EXPECT:
Motivated students who are willing to actively participate in all activities. The more effort you invest, the more you gain ;). Students will work in small teams and will be also requested to prepare and give a short presentation (+ discussion) about the chosen topic. Part of the activities will be realized in the marine environment directly (boat-trip, wading in the shallows, snorkelling, etc.). All participants should be able to swim. We can teach you later how to snorkel properly. For advanced students (with necessary certificate), scuba diving can be included within activities.
SUMMARY PROGRAM: will be updated
TRAVEL: participants travel to the destination by their own, mostly by car or bus (Jadranexpres stops at many cities along the Croatian coast).
ACCOMMODATION: The path from the bus station to the accommodation SEE THE MAP. Aapartments are not on the map, but the local cemetery is a good orientation point since it is just next to our place :)
FOOD: The first week in Pakostane is based on individual food (kitchen, restaurants), the second week in Zadar will be updated
