Particles, Strings & Cosmology

Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, updated information


Universität Hamburg has been working to keep on top of new developments and is making adjustments to scheduled programming as necessary. Unfortunately, the recent developments force us to postpone our summer school to July 2021, prioritizing the health and safety of all participants.

Work with leading researchers from Universität Hamburg’s Physics Department and DESY to examine theoretical concepts, expand your knowledge and discuss advanced research questions in the Particles, Strings & Cosmology Summer School.

All Summer School programs include our supplementary program, focusing on German culture and history, taught through field trips and excursions.
