Description

The Georgian Teacher Programme 2019 will take place from 31 March - 6 April 2019. 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 Georgia as ambassadors, who pass on the subject to our next generation of physicists, engineers, IT specialists ...
