Description

The Estonian and Latvian Teacher Programme 2018 will take place from 6-10 March 2018. Lectures, on-site visits, exhibitions, and hands-on workshops will introduce its participants to cutting-edge particle physics. We hope our participants will go back to Estonia and Latvia as ambassadors, who pass on the subject to our next generation of physicists, engineers, IT specialists ...
