The EPICS Summer School 2026 is the third instance in the series of summer schools. The school will take place at the European Spallation Source ERIC in Lund, Sweden, following the first two that were organised by Helmholz-Zentrum Berlin (HZB).
The school is primarily oriented towards people who have little or no previous experience with the EPICS control system toolbox.
During the event, you will gain insights into the engineering principles underlying particle accelerators and other large-scale scientific projects. You will learn how scientists and engineers collaborate to conduct groundbreaking experiments and operate these machines with the highest level of precision. You will acquire a deep understanding of the control systems that govern big scientific projects (and some smaller ones) and have the opportunity to work on a hands-on project utilizing real scientific hardware.
We are still working on some practical details, but hope to open the registration in a couple of weeks.
