The 3rd International UBI Summer School 2012 will be held in Oulu, Finland, on May 28 - June 2, 2012. The summer school provides young researchers with an opportunity to gain hands on experience and insight on selected topics on the multidisciplinary fields of ubiquitous computing and urban informatics under the tutelage of distinguished experts. The summer school is targeted primarily to doctoral students, but M.Sc. students and postdocs are also welcome to attend. The 2012 UBI Summer School builds on the legacy of the two previous highly successful UBI summer schools held in Oulu in 2010 and 2011.


The 2012 UBI Summer School comprises of three parallel workshops:

A: Information Visualisation for UbiComp Data by Professor Aaron Quigley, University of St. Andrews, Scotland;

B: Supporting Community Through Interactive Public Displays by Dr. Keith Cheverst, Lancaster University, UK;

D: Urban Sensoria: Human-Centered Computing in Practice by Dr. Alejandro (Alex) Jaimes, Yahoo! Research.


Any seats remaining are handed out on first come, first served basis for applications received till April 26, 2012. Accepted students have to confirm their enrollment via registration by May 7, 2012.

Prospective students should note the following guidelines:
* A student must submit the online application form available at http://www.ubioulu.fi/en/UBI-summer-school-2012-application-form to be considered for enrollment.
* A student is enrolled to one particular workshop that she/he is expected to complete to claim the credits (5.0 cp). The enrollment of a student to a workshop is conditional to the approval by the instructor of the workshop.
* A student may apply for more than one workshop. If the student is not enrolled to her/his first choice workshop, then she/he is considered for her/his second choice workshop, etc. A student should only apply to those workshops that she/he is really willing to attend.
* All students are responsible for their own travel and accommodation arrangements and expenses. Thus, before applying, a student should make sure that she/he has necessary funds to attend the summer school. We provide all students with an opportunity to purchase low-cost accommodation (100 EUR for 8 nights) upon registration.
