Jedes Jahr im Sommersemester laden die Graduiertenschulen der Universität Würzburg (UWGS) ihre Mitglieder und Promovierenden zu einem gemeinsamen, halbtägigen „Graduate Schools Day“ ein. Wir freuen uns sehr, dass dieses Sommerfest auch in diesem Jahr wieder stattfinden kann.

Ausrichter: Graduate School of Life Sciences (GSLS)

Als Gäste eingeladen sind alle aktuellen Mitglieder und Promovierenden der GSH
sowie der
- University of Würzburg Graduate Schools (UWGS)
- Graduate School of Science ans Technology (GSST)
- Graduate School of Law and Economics (GSLES)

P  R O G R A M M
(Stand: 22.5.2024, kl. Änderungen noch möglich)

für Mitglieder und Promovierende der GSH sowie Promotionsinteressierte:

16:15h - 17:00h: "Ihre Promotion mit Mehrwert" - Infoveranstaltung zur Promotion in der GSH

16:45h - 17:15h: Willkommen bei Kaffee und Gebäck 

17:15h - bis ca. 18:00h: Interdisziplinärer Vortrag (in Englisch) mit anschließender Diskussion.

Prof. Dr. Fabian Moss, Mitglied der GSH, Juniorprofessur für Digitale Musikphilologie und Musiktheorie
"Computational Musicology - oxymoron or perfect fit?"

Music has often occupied an awkward position in academic scholarship: its physical foundations in the vibrations of sound and mathematical properties of its structure tightly link its study to rational thought and the scientific method, whereas its historical and artistic nature situates it in philosophic and aesthetic debates within the humanities. Moreover, both its cultural diversity as well as its appreciation and consumption place it firmly in the context of the social sciences. In my talk I will present examples of a renewed scientific and scholarly interest to transcend this apparent disciplinary barrier using computational methods to study music and argue that this development instantiates larger a epistemological changes regarding how we study cultural phenomena at large.

Ab 18:00h - bis ca. 22:00h: Abendessen, Musik und Tanz sowie GSLS-Abschlusszeremonie

Nach dem o.g. Vortrag geht es zum gemütlichen Teil des Abends über. Im GSLS-Gebäude gibt es ein Abendessen in entspannter Atmosphäre mit Musik und eine kleine Abschlusszeremonie für Absolvierte der GSLS.

Bitte melden Sie sich bei Interesse hier bis spätestens 24. Juni 2024 an  und geben mir eine kurze Nachricht, dass Sie sich dort angemeldet haben (an thomas.schmid@uni-wuerzburg.de).

Beste Grüße,
T. Schmid mit Kolleginnen und Kollegen der UWGS
