Higher Categories for the Working Mathematician
A summer school of the RTG 2491

This school aims to provide an introduction to the world of higher categories and their applications, suitable for non-experts. Its main goal is to make higher categories more accessible and exciting and show how pervasive they are in different areas of mathematics (and beyond). It is organized as an activity of the Research Training Group Fourier Analysis and Spectral Theory (RTG 2491).
