Polymer Summer School

raft agentThe Polymer Summer School has been held  since 2000. It is was historically co-sponsored by the RACI Polymer Division and the CRC for Polymers. Its aims are to broaden polymer education in Australia, increase the level of cross-fertilisation in polymer science and engineering, and to provide a strong theoretical introduction for new researchers. In addition to attending formal presentations, there are excellent opportunities to meet on an informal basis with leading polymer scientists.

The Polymer Summer School is relevant for:

  • Students enrolled in higher degrees;
  • Undergraduate Engineering and Science students;
  • Postdoctoral Fellows;
  • Anyone with a technical interest in polymers and polymer research.
