Europe fulfills all requirements to successfully open the gate to the Photonic century. But to make this come true, young and dedicated people have to be educated and qualified in this field of research.
That is the reason why an initiative driven by the Federal Government of Germany and the states Thüringen and Baden-Württemberg has been introduced. 16 dedicated industrial companies and the two leading universities in Optics & Photonics, Karlsruhe and Jena, were asked to give special aid to international and national students who are willing to study in the exciting field of Optics & Photonics.
