The meeting (“THz Frischlinge”/“THz débutants et débutantes“) is intended as a meeting for young scientists and researchers (bachelor/master/PhD students) active in the wide field of terahertz and millimeter-wave technology (organized “by students, for students”). It gives you the opportunity to present your research in a talk or a poster, to extend your scientific network and to exchange experiences with other students active in your research topic.
Important information:
The conference is organized at the university Campus Riedberg in the Physics faculty. It is located outside the city center, but it can be reached within 20min from the city center by train (U8, station „Uni Campus Riedberg“). There are plenty of car parking spaces as well. For more details see the campus plan (building 3 „Physik“, part N310).
