Announcement

The aim of this winter school is to provide an expository overview of the observation and theoretical understanding of galaxies at high redshift. The tentative lecture topics include (but not limited to) starburst and ultraluminous galaxies, active galactic nuclei/black holes, formation and evolution of galaxies, deep sky surveys, and intergalactic medium. Due to resource constraints, the participants are limited to 50 graduate or advanced undergraduate students from within Taiwan and internationally.
