ICTP Physics Without Frontiers Programme

[Admin]

The Physics Without Frontiers programme organized by the International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) is growing and is encouraging applications for participants.

This programme works to inspire, train and motivate physics and mathematics university students worldwide, particularly in those in countries lagging in science and technology. Projects are organized by lecturers, postdoctoral researchers and PhD students, aiming to train the next generation of scientists; all organizers are volunteers. Each project is unique, developed with the country's specific needs in mind.

Types of projects include:

PHYSICS WITHOUT FRONTIERS UNIVERSITY COURSES

Are you a faculty member at a university in a developing country and would like to request a course for your department that you are currently unable to offer? This can be any undergraduate or masters course in physics or mathematics.

PHYSICS WITHOUT FRONTIERS WORKSHOPS AND SCHOOLS

Collaborators from a host country and international researchers are invited to submit applications to host a workshop or school for undergraduate or master students on a given field of research.

PHYSICS WITHOUT FRONTIERS ROADSHOWS

Are you a researcher from a developing country working abroad and passionate to promote your research field in your home country? Organize a roadshow where you along with some collaborators visit universities throughout a country to deliver motivational one-day programmes.

PWF projects are driven by volunteers, and although there is small amounts of funding available for travel grants, other financial support must be provided by the host universities and partner sponsors.

The deadline for applications for this programme is May 30, 2019.
