*****************************************

ACM, the ACM Europe Council, the University of Ioannina, and the ATHENA  Research and Innovation Center invites students to the 6th ACM Europe Summer School in Data Science. The school will take place in Ioannina, Greece, in June 30 – July 4, 2025 and has a stellar set of keynote speakers and lecturers.

Students will have the opportunity to attend lectures and keynote talks by:

* Sihem Amer-Yahia (CNRS and Univ. Grenoble Alpes)

* Stefania Dumbrava (ENSIIE and Télécom SudParis)

* Bettina Kemme (McGill University)

* Wolfgang Lehner (TU Dresden)

* Volker Markl (TU Berlin)

* Panayiotis Tsaparas (University of Ioannina)

* Yannis Velegrakis (Utrecht University)

The multi-lecture courses address different layers of the data science stack, ranging from systems challenges for modern data science to emerging foundational aspects, including big graph data management, fairness and bias in network data analytics, exploratory data analysis for data-intensive systems, machine-learning based query optimization, data valuation for data reduction and sustainability, sustainable machine learning, scalable big data processing with Flink and NebulaStream.

The School is addressed to early-stage researchers, such as graduate (MSc and PhD) students, postdocs, early-career faculty, and other academic and industrial researchers interested in the diverse field of Data Science. A small number of advanced undergraduate students with the appropriate background might be considered as well.

All courses will take place in the Grand Serai Congress & Spa Hotel, which is located at the heart of the vibrant city of Ioannina, Greece. Located in theΝorthwestern part of the country, Ioannina sits in the center of a valley, amongst enormous mountains near a wonderful lake, just an hour from the sunny Ionian Pelago beaches (Parga, Syvota) and from the picturesque Zagori mountain villages. An interesting and stimulating social program will take advantage of the historical and cultural identity of Ioannina and complement the technical program of the School.

The application process will remain open until the positions are covered. Priority will be given to applications submitted by April 30, 2025.

Attendees will receive an ACM certificate of participation.

Student fees cover part of the tuition costs. The remaining costs (including accommodation, food and beverages during lectures, and social events) are covered by ACM and the school sponsors.
