Description

The first UK Teachers Programme in 2015 will take place from 17 to 20 February. Lectures, on-site visits and exhibitions and hands-on workshops as well will introduce its participants into cutting-edge particle physics. We hope our participants will go back to the UK as ambassadors, who pass on the subject to our next generation of physicists, engineers, IT specialists and and and ...

If you would like to participate, please get in touch with your national organiser Mark Langley from the National Science Learning Centre at the University of York. Information about the scientific programme and agenda can be found under Timetable. More precise information concerning your arrival at CERN as well as a definite confirmation of your participation will be sent to you by e-mail. CERN and its Education Group is looking forward to welcome you here in Geneva, Switzerland.
