This event offers special rates for a limited number of PhD students who are attending the EAA Annual Congress for the first time. A reduction of € 200,- on the conference fee is available to the first 100 qualifying PhD students. Sorry, the limit has been reached (23 February 2011), thus the discount is no longer applicable.

The registration fee includes: Early Bird Reception, Welcome Concert, Welcome Cocktail, Closing Cocktail, lunch and coffee breaks during the conference, admission to all scientific sessions, all congress materials, EAA membership fee of € 50,- (inclusive of Belgian VAT 21%) for 2012 and administration costs.

We are happy to receive accompanying persons with the delegates to Rome. The registration fee for accompanying persons includes the Early Bird Reception, Welcome Concert, Welcome Cocktail, Closing Cocktail, and the administration costs, but no admission to the academic sessions.
