Science Outreach and Public Engagement
The nucleus and elementary particle outreach center operates within Experimental nuclear and particle center of the Faculty of Physics (FP) at Vilnius University (VU). It organizes educational activities for the general public. High school students and their teachers are welcome to visit our center, to take part in particle physics experiments, attend a lecture on CERN activities and research, or participate in a video bridge. Students will deepen their knowledge in the field of nuclear and elementary particles, learn scientific work and learn how to apply their knowledge in a new situation. Teachers can raise their qualifications by sharing experiences and ideas.
Our Center aims to attract students to the field of physics, to motivate them by lectures about particle physics, simple and easy experiments. Our current services for school teachers and students are provided by the Particle Physics Outreach Group. In particular, group:
