10. Workshops are structured in such a way that participants can either
take the two blocks of one workshop or two blocks from different workshops.

The "workload" of the active participation in the European Summer
University corresponds to 6 ETCS points.

Like in the former years quite a number of scholarships can be granted
to participants of the European Summer University. In fact, the German
Accademic Exchange Service (DAAD) makes available also this year
generous support to up to 20 alumni / alumnae of German universities.
Furthermore, the International Office of Leipzig University offers quite
a range of scholarships. On top of this a generous grant from DARIAH-EU
allows us to attribute quite a number of teaching fellowships. All
information on the already now (and eventually in the future) available
scholarships can be found here: https://esu.fdhl.info/support/
(https://esu.fdhl.info/support/).

For all relevant information please consult the Web-Portal of the
European Summer School in Digital Humanities “Culture & Technology”
https://esu.fdhl.info/ (https://esu.fdhl.info/) which will be
continually updated and integrated with more information as soon as it
becomes available. To get some insight into what you can expect from the
European Summer University please consult its former website
https://esu.culintec.de/ (https://esu.culintec.de/) and especially the
year 2019.
