Description

This UK Teacher Programme 2016 will take place from 13-17 December 2016. Lectures, on-site visits, exhibitions, and hands-on workshops 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 ...
