Do you know that CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research, Switzerland) is not only the particle accelerator, operating the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) tunnel, the place where the Big Bang theory is explored?
CERN is also the birthplace of the World Wide Web and one of the largest data processing facilities for experimental-data analysis. CERN has become a facility for the development of grid computing, hosting projects including the Enabling Grids for E-sciencE (EGEE) and LHC Computing Grid.
CERN is a unique research lab with 2,513 staff members, 12,313 visiting fellows, associates, apprentices as well as scientists and engineers.
The guests from CERN will present internship and research opportunities at CERN as well as CERN Spring Campus, which will be held in April 2016 at VGTU.
CERN Spring Campus is 3 days of intensive IT training for students of Computing and engineering, Physics, Technomathematics. World known CERN scientists will share their knowledge, insights and prospects for current students ‑ future experts and leaders in the field. Experimental teams of CERN Spring Campus will attend a series of CERN lectures dedicated to most advanced research topics in ICT, computing, data analysis.
CERN campuses in 2015 were organized in Dubna, Russia, home to the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research, and Barcelona, Spain. In April 2016 it is here in Vilnius!
Don’t miss the chance to get in touch with the top notch professionals from CERN.
