*** DEADLINE FOR APPLICATION: March 5, 2017 ***

Many real systems can be modeled as networks, where the elements of the
system are nodes and interactions between elements are edges. An even
larger set of systems can be modeled using dynamical processes on networks, which are in turn affected by the dynamics. Networks thus represent the
backbone of many complex systems, and their theoretical and computational analysis makes it possible to gain insights into numerous applications.
Networks permeate almost every conceivable discipline---including sociology, transportation, economics and finance, biology, and myriad others---and
the study of "network science" has thus become a crucial component of modern scientific education.

The school "Complex Networks: Theory, Methods, and Applications" offers a succinct education in network science. It is open to all aspiring scholars
in any area of science or engineering who wish to study networks of any kind (whether theoretical or applied), and it is especially addressed to
doctoral students and young postdoctoral scholars. The aim of the school is to deepen into both theoretical developments and applications in targeted
fields.
