Photonics21 Student Innovation Award 2012 - Young People Excellence
Our targetsOur targets
Honor excellent photonics research with a highindustrial impact
Promote photonics training & education within Europe
Motivate & engage young people for photonics
Draw attention from industry to young talents
Photoncis21 awarded young people for Excellent Research for theThe Student Innovation Award 2012 was handed over for Excellent Research for the fourth time.
The Student Innovation Award 2012 was handed overto Thomas Geernaert (Vrije Universiteit Brussels)& Bernhard Schrenk (National Technical Universityof Athens) at the Photonics21 Annual Meeting 2012of Athens) at the Photonics21 Annual Meeting 2012
The Photonics21 Student Innovation Award 2013 will be handed over on the 29 April in the frame of thebe handed over on the 29 April in the frame of the Photonics21 Annual Meeting in Brussels.
Promoting Photonics Study Programmes
S t th f h t i t d i ESupport the awareness for photonics study programmes in Europe
Photonics21 collects information on photonics study programmes throughout EEurope
The information is published on the Photonics21 website www.photonics21.org in the section training & educationthe section training & education
Universities are invited to submit their profile to the Photonics21 Secretariat via e-mail to secretariat@photonics21 orgmail to [email protected]
The information will then be made available on the Photonics21 website.
