This is an annual symposium for the global COE program at Kyoto University "the Next generation physics spun from universality and emergence". The theme of the symposium of this year is "Symmetry Breaking and Quantum Phenomena". The first day is specifically devoted to this theme. There will be plenary talks by internationally renowned scientists, and all sessions will be in English. Another aspect of this symposium is to promote joint research among different fields under the two keywords, universality and emergence. There will be talks from various areas of research, paying special attetion to connections with universality and emergence. In addition, there will be a special session on graduate school eduation, which is another important aspect of this GCOE program.
