Outreach and Scientific Events

IFIMUP has a Bureau for Outreach and Scientific Events that promotes IFIMUP research areas in schools, high school students, teachers, and the scientific community. The bureau also contributes to university teaching courses, in particular initial and continuous teacher training projects and activities.
