GFPS 2028 Ph.D. Symposium

Dear GFPS community,

As announced during the past GFPS 2026 event, the Global Fluid Power Society is seeking for institutions wanting to host the next Symposium in 2028.

The Symposium was established by the Fluid Power Net International in 2000, and it has been organized by GFPS since 2018. The 2028 Ph.D. Symposium will be the 15th edition and the 6th organized by GFPS.

All past editions of the Symposium focused on cutting edge research topics pursued by young researchers, but also included keynote lectures or other events involving the broad fluid power community.

More information on the spirit and the requirements for such an event can be found in the attached application form.
