Alumni Meeting
Scope of the meeting
On the 21st July 2009 the Annual Alumni Trainee Meeting was held at ESAC. The Alumni meeting gives former trainees the opportunity to present their current work and to see what we are doing at ESAC regarding traineeships. It also gives the new trainees some ideas of what one can do after the training, and allows everyone to do some networking and have a small party.
Since 2004 a trainee project has been carried out at ESAC where young scientists participate in a space project scientifically operated from the European Space Astronomy Centre (ESAC). Trainees from various universities and the ESA Young Graduate Trainee Programme are involved.
