International
Summer School
New
Frontiers in Optical Technologies
10-14 August 2009, Tampere, Finland
3 ECTS credits
The International
Summer School 'New Frontiers in Optical Technologies', a biennial event
held at Tampere University of Technology, is scheduled to take place on
10 - 14 August 2009. This year's event will build on the success of
previous Schools, in particular that of 2007, which attracted a record
150 participants from 19 countries. In 2009 the School will once again
offer students and researchers the opportunity to exchange scientific
ideas, create contacts, and gain inspiration from leading professionals
at the cutting edge of technology.
Information about previous Summer Schools can be found here.
