ERMSEI 2025
Mon 1 - Fri 5 September 2025 Rennes, France

ERMSEI (Empirical Research Methods in Softwar engineering and Informatics) is a PhD school that focuses on hands-on work and aims to provide young researchers with a good overview over all empirical research paradigms.

ERMSEI started in 2013 and has been held annually in varying locations and formats, sometimes co-located to conferences such as ECOOP, EASE or MODELS.

The Summer School on Empirical Research Methods in Software Engineering and Informatics (ERMSEI) is coming to France for the first time!

Running mostly annually since 2013, the ERMSEI Summer School is the place to go if you are a junior researcher and want to start doing empirical work in a Software Engineering or Informatics context but don’t know how or lack a local support system. In 2025, we’re hosted at the Centre de recherche Inria (IRISA), in beautiful Rennes (France).
