Education Team
We are the team behind CERN’s education programmes, working to bring the excitement of fundamental physics to school students and teachers around the world. Our dynamic, international group manages everything from programme design and content to the platforms and events that make these opportunities possible — collaborating closely with scientists, educators, and partner institutions across the globe.
