Learn more about an international science competition for high school students, where they can propose an experiment, which can be performed using a particle accelerator. Since 2014 CERN has run the Beamline for Schools competition, where winners are invited each year for two weeks with full cost covered to perform their proposed experiments together with professional scientists at CERN's world-class particle physics laboratories.
