Students at l'Observatoire d'Haute Provence, France
Friday, August 19, 2016 - 00:00
In October each year department staff travel with Astrophysics students to an Observatory high in the French Alps in Provence. They stay on-site for 5 days and get to use these high-end astronomical and radio telescopes with instruction from the observatory staff. Many then use their observations as part of their 4th year project/thesis. We have been bringing students to Provence since 2005 and without exception they have thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
This year students will travel from Monday 10th October to Friday 14th October.
