European summer school in Plasma Physics in Science and Technology

Plasma technology is a key technology, e.g., in microelectronics fabrication, nanotechnology and materials research, lighting and plasma displays, pollution control, and has major impact on the development of society. Although a plasma is considered the forth state of matter, it is not well recognised as a teaching and research discipline at universities. This summer school aims to promote the basics of plasma physics in a compact training course to be taught to undergraduate and postgraduate students with a background in natural science and engineering.

The summer school addresses to 4th year and post-graduate students from participating institutions in Germany (Greifswald, Kiel), Poland (Koszalin University of Technology, TU Szczecin) and Czech Republic (Charles University).

The first summer school was held in 2007 in Greifswald. This second summer school 2008 will be held in Koszalin from the 18th until the 29th of August 2008.
