2007 CERN-Fermilab HCP Summer School

5 Jun 2007, 08:00 → 15 Jun 2007, 14:00 Europe/Zurich

6/2-024 (CERN)

Second joint CERN-Fermilab Hadron Collider Physics Summer School

The CERN-Fermilab Hadron Collider Physics Summer Schools are targeted particularly at young postdocs in experimental High Energy Physics (HEP), as well as senior PhD students.
Other schools, such as the CERN European School of High Energy Physics, may provide more appropriate training for students in experimental HEP who are still working towards their PhDs.

For more information, see the CERN-Fermilab 2007 School webpages.
