The International Doctorate Network in Particle Physics, Astrophysics and Cosmology (IDPASC) is an interdisciplinary network whose purpose is to create new high-level experts in the fields of Particle Physics, Astrophysics and Cosmology. In particular it should help to create the future scientific and physics staff for an European Particle Physics, Astrophysics and Cosmology Programme. The doctorate network in particle physics, astrophysics and cosmology will be promoted by each partner university.
