Young people and science programme from caixa catalunya's social work
Workshop description
From 28th June to 10th July 2010

The E2C3 are science workshops for all young people who wish to make the most of a unique experience. Over a period of 13 days you'll learn to adopt a more sceptical, more analytical attitude with respect to scientific research. The 50 candidates selected will have to choose from one of the five research projects (Los sonidos de la naturaleza, Pick it up with light!, Genetica y Biología Molecular, Introduction to astronomy, astrophysics, and space mission design and the world of materials) and develop it with the members in their group. This will all be undertaken with the assistance of the very best researchers, university students and international experts, which will also enhance your English language skills.

Ten young people will take part in each project, with the support of scientists who are experienced in research and in the relevant areas of the project itself. During the workshops you'll work on a single project, but also take part in seminars in which each group will present the theme of their project and the development. Talks, outings and other activities will also be organised. Approximately six hours per day will be committed to the project. And, on the final day, the groups will prepare a presentation to which the scientists, families and the participants in the programme will be invited.
