Welcome to Cologne to the 6th Annual Congress of the European College of Sport Science, 24-28 July 2001
The European College of Sport Science (ECSS) and the German Society of Sport Science (dvs) invite you to the 6th Annual Congress of the ECSS and the 15th Congress of the dvs at the German Sport University in Cologne.
The ECSS, being an international scientific society with members from 40 different countries dedicated to the collection, generation and dissemination of scientific knowledge for sport science and related sciences, is pleased to stage its Congress in collaboration with the dvs. The dvs is a German national organisation comprising sport scientists who are involved in teaching, research and science from institutes throughout Germany.
In consideration of the multifaceted character of sport science, the aim of this Congress is to create a forum for scientists and students from all fields of research. Hereby the Congress provides a state-of-the-art view of applied and clinical sciences as they relate to sport, exercise and health. Additionally, aspects of economy, education, multimedia and numerous other fields which greatly impact the future of sport science in our society, will also be dealt with.
The German Sport University Cologne (DSHS) will host this Congress. With 7000 students comprising 400 foreign students and 21 university partnerships throughout the world, the DSHS can be considered a melting pot of sport science in Europe, paving the way for international exchange and modern scientific research. This international approach also applies to Cologne as a city which has long been a leading representative of sport, science, media and journalism in Germany.
Cologne, situated in Western Germany with a population of close to 1 million, has been a centre of trade at Europe's heart for more than two millennia. The resulting infrastructure provides the best conditions for the biggest cultural, political and economic events.
In order to ensure a most pleasant and carefree stay, affordable accommodation is available near the DSHS campus, thus rendering own transportation unnecessary. The town centre is easily accessible by public transport.
Accommodation in the city ranges from tourist class to five star hotels, most located at small distances from the Congress venue. Cologne's own airport, on the outskirts of the city, facilitates international access.
Apart from the excellent scientific programme offered by the Congress, participants will also rapidly become aware of the advantages of Cologne as a social event. Cologne's own unique character combined with local and regional specialities make a visit to the town centre a worthwhile must.
We look forward to meeting you in Cologne.
Prof. Dr. Joachim Mester, President, ECSS
Prof. Dr. Walter Tokarski, Rector, German Sport University Cologne
Prof. Dr. Werner Schmidt, President, dvs
