Program aims
The Mineral Sciences program at the University of Lausanne aims to enhance collaboration and scientific exchanges between the research groups of the CUSO universities. DPMS doctoral students are welcome to (co-)organise their own activities and develop networks of collaboration, and to present their research during annual DPMS meeting days.
