Summer schools and laboratory courses
Jülich’s scientific institutes organize summer schools and laboratory courses, often in collaboration with universities. These events give students the chance to gain early insight into working at a multidisciplinary research institution and improve their theoretical and experimental knowledge through intensive courses. As many of the summer schools are popular internationally, participants also have the opportunity to exchange ideas and develop contacts with early-career scientists from other countries.
