The theme for 2024 was the “Blue Humanities.”&nbsp; The&nbsp;ScienceHumanities Summer School 2024 featured a week of workshops with leading scholars in the Blue Humanities and Environmental Humanities who have trained in a diverse array of disciplines—literature, history, philosophy, sociology, environmental science—and are doing research at the cross-section of the humanities and sciences. Students had the opportunity to engage with experienced researchers and a select cohort of peers from around the world, attending&nbsp;workshops around the theme of Blue humanities and career issues. Speakers included Steve Mentz, Stewart Mottram, Kerstin Knopf, Owain Lawson, Mohammed Muharram, Martin Willis, Keir Waddington, Jennifer Henke, and Paula von Gleich. Areas covered in the workshop included: interdisciplinary working, Indigenous knowledge and literature, weather shocks and water, freshwater and the blue humanities, etc. In addition, students had the opportunity to share ideas, concepts and methods with other doctoral students and to build a network of global contacts. The Summer School&nbsp;also incorporated career-shaping activities and a cultural programme focussed on the rich heritage of Bremen and Bremerhaven. The Summer School was open&nbsp; to 12 doctoral students and&nbsp;postdoctorial researchers (within 12 months of the award of their PhD) located in&nbsp;universities and research centres worldwide. It was free to attend, but participants had to meet the cost of their own transport, accommodation and part of their subsistence during their stay at the HWK Institute for Advanced Study (<a href="https://hanse-ias.de/" title="https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fhanse-ias.de%2F&amp;data=05%7C02%7CWillisM8%40cardiff.ac.uk%7Cdb5a8e1bcb0d4638718308dc2974d885%7Cbdb74b3095684856bdbf06759778fcbc%7C1%7C0%7C638430829045218067%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC">Hanse-Wissenschaftskolleg</a>), Delmenhorst.
