About the symposium
This is the opening symposium of global COE program "The Next Generation of Physics, Spun from Universality and Emergence" at Kyoto university.
The objective of this symposium is two-fold. the first is to explain what this GCOE program is aiming at, especially about what is meant by the physics spun from universality and emergence, and the second is to ignite new collaborating work between different fields under the keywords of universality and emergence.
For this purpose, several selected speakers as representatives of various fields give plenary talks that inspire universality and emergence. Special session about the education for PhD students in this GCOE program will be also organized.
