As we are part of the Institute for Photonic Quantum Systems (PhoQS), multiple members of our group participate in the PhoQS school program. We want to raise the interest of school students in the fascinating world of physics and quantum optics. We visit physics classes of the upper school and give exclusive insights in the physics studies and what it is like to work in an academic research group. Moreover, this is a great chance for the pupils to ask anything they always wanted to know about physics or the studies at Paderborn University. This way, we strive to reach school students at an early stage and increase their curiosity about natural sciences.
The program has been very well received so far; we visited the following physics classrooms:
-
Maximilian Protte gave special insights into the physics world at Städtisches Gymnasium Delbrück and Gymnasium Marienschule Lippstadt
-
Nina Lange presented her perspective on the physics studies at Grabbe-Gymnasium Detmold
-
Johanna Biendl and Frederik Thiele visited the Gymnasium Theodorianum Paderborn to talk about their studies and research
