first Camp from June 21th to July 14th,
second Camp from August 2nd to 25th
They are adressed to interested high school students, undergraduate college
and university students, aged about 17 to 20 years. Courses are offered in
biology, chemistry and physics and supervised by scientists of the University of
Göttingen and affiliated research organizations.
The students work in small
groups of two or three. All experiments are hands-on experiments. Demonstrations
are rarely used and limited only to highly sophisticated experiments, to the use
of NMR, X-Ray or other large research instruments.
During the XLAB
International Science Camps English is the language used among students,
teachers and scientists.
At the weekends and in the evenings a cultural and
social program is arranged. Social contacts among students of different cultural
background are as important as experimental work and scientific learning. All
social activities are accompanied by experienced teachers.
The costs for the camp 2009 are 1.750 € which is all-inclusive except for the
travel expenses to Göttingen and home. Financial support is possible.
During
the science camp each participant will attend three different weekly courses.
Students select courses of their interest and indicate their first and second
choices. The final schedule will be set according to the interest of the
applicants.
