All BL4S Editions

 

The first edition of the Beamline for Schools competition took place in 2014, on the occasion of the CERN’s 60th anniversary. The idea was to make a fully equipped beamline available for high-school students to run an experiment in the same way that the laboratory’s researchers do.

For the first time, the laboratory was offering a chance to high-school students worldwide to carry out an experiment at CERN as if they were real researchers working on a real proton beam line. Since then, the past editions met a great success and CERN received hundreds of submissions from students from all around the world willing to take part in this amazing competition.

So far 1905 teams from 92 different countries with more than 15,000 students have taken part in seven successful editions.
