experience can boost the application. Although not required,
good standard English test scores for non-native speakers
can be helpful.
Overview
Photonics has revolutionized the 21st century technologies.
It enables new superior tools in areas ranging from medicine
to communications to clean energy, which comes with
outstanding career and employment opportunities for young
scientists and engineers. This 4-week summer camp is to
expose the participating students to the frontiers of
photonics research.
Program
The Camp comprises a well-designed mix of workshops and
hands-on cutting-edge research projects in use of state-of-
the-art nanofabrication and imaging facilities. Four key areas
of photonics research will be covered by leading scholars
and experts:
• Fundamentals of semiconductors for photonics
• Optoelectronics science and technology
• Nonlinear optics and emerging optics
• Photonics communication science and technology
