AUSTRIA CONFERENCE

Why is it that most political battles in academia surface towards the end of the academic year? Is it due to the pressure that accumulates during the preceding months? When pressure builds up, something has to yield. Stress creates fissures and even the strongest crumble.
Many of our European professors and students hail from cultures that have long understood the paramount importance of relaxation. For those for whom the academic year is a tug-of-war between various responsibilities on campus, ranging from research demands to teaching duties, this conference offers a rejuvenating experience in an intellectual European environment. The old European saying mente sana cuerpo sano realized long ago what holds the key to a healthy intellectual.
It is with this in mind that we selected two of the most prominent spots in the province of Salzburg`s Bad Hofgastein. The first is the Congress Center for the presentation of the delegates` research papers. The second is a luxurious 4.5-star hotel, the perfect venue for scholars to come together and share their thoughts and ideas after conference hours while having the opportunity to wind down and relax in this spa hotel. Both locations are within walking distance of each other.
