KSOP Summer School 2008, August 20-21

Very successfull KSOP Summer School 2008

Over 90 international master students, doctoral candidates, postdocs, professors and representatives from industry took part in the first KSOP Summer School in Bad Herrenalb.

The two-day program comprised four "slots" related to the KSOP research areas each with one keynote speaker and additional well-known experts. This approach highlighted the interdisciplinary character of KSOP.

All lectures and talks were held in English. To enhance discussion and exchange, part of the Summer School was a poster presentation. Each participant was invited to present a poster including his or her scientific background, research interest or current research project.

The CFN Summer School 2008 on Nano-Photonics was held at the same venue right after the KSOP Summer School from August 22-25. Please visit their website for more information.
