Abstract
These proceedings are based on lectures delivered at the ‘RTN Winter School on Strings, Supergravity and Gauge Theories’, CERN, 16–20 January 2006. The school was mainly aimed at PhD students and young postdocs. The lectures start with a brief introduction to spacetime singularities and the string theory resolution of certain static singularities. Then they discuss attempts to resolve cosmological singularities in string theory, mainly focusing on two specific examples: the Milne orbifold and the matrix big bang.
