Lunch seminar and exhibition
On the border between Switzerland and France, CERN houses the world’s largest and most complex scientific instruments for investigating the subatomic world.
This year holds special significance for the research facility – on 29 September, it turned 70. And, even though so much has already been discovered through CERN, it feels like the work has just begun.
Join the CERN 70 Anniversary tour for a day of activities – an exhibition, an inspiring lunch seminar, and an evening event, including a popular scientific talk on current research at CERN. The evening event is held in Swedish.
It is the perfect opportunity to learn more about what CERN has done and does and how you can be a part of the future of this world-famous research facility.
Are you a student, and perhaps you have never thought that CERN could be the next step in your career? Find out what it is like to join one of CERN’s many student programs and get to know more about the challenges you would be working on at CERN.
As a research facility, CERN requires people with innovative mindsets and diverse skills in everything from engineering and computer science to administration and international relations.
12:15–13:00 | Lunch seminar | Opportunities for students
Ayla Borglund, Developer and Project Coordinator at CERN and Ellen Riefel, PhD Student in Particle Physics at Stockholm University, give their insights about the activities at CERN and let you in on the exciting opportunities available for students at one of the world’s largest research laboratories.
The seminar is free of charge, but the number of seats is limited, and registration is required (See registration at the top of the page). If you register, a vegetarian lunch is included.
The seminar is held in English.
