Description
A school designed mainly for bachelor and master students to teach them facts and basics of the field not typically incorporated in university curricula. If in doubt whether or not this school suits your need, please feel free to contact the Alliance Analysis Centre (anacen@desy.de) to enquire further. More information (a more detailed programme and the timetable) will be published on this website soon - for the time being please refer to the linked PDF document. Application (including a short statement about the interest in and experience - if any - with high-energy physics and the name of the group leader as contact person) is through an email to anacen@desy.de until Friday, 5 February 2010, and a small committee is set up to select the candidates. Registration will be possible after selection and a confirmation email.
