Call for STIG Student Delegates:2015 SciREX Summer Camp


As part of the joint education program within “Science for RE-designing Science, Technology and Innovation Policy” (SciREX), we organize a summer camp jointly with the six core universities every year.
The summer camp offers an excellent opportunity to discuss common themes, exchange views and perspectives, and interact with other participants having diverse backgrounds.
