This summerschool was an amazing experience! I believe that the knowledge and information that came from the lectures will help me in my future career. But of greater importance was getting to know the whole group, going out and making friends from different countries and having so much laughter and such great conversations. The teachers were really helpful too!
My first year in the ISSOPVS was in 2016 and was really a great experience. I had the opportunity to attend classes in specialized fields of photovoltaics, such as organic. Theoretical knowledge was supplemented with field trips and lecturers were experienced scientists from all around the world.Democritus University of Thrace - Kavala Campus
