Description

The second Welsh Teacher Programme will take place from 22 to 25 February 2016. 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 Wales 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.
