CAMMP - Scientific Computing for Pupils

CAMMP stands for Computational and Mathematical Modeling Program and is a project of the Karlsuher Institut für Technologie (KIT). CAMMP aims to make the public aware of the social importance of mathematics and simulation sciences. To this end, students actively participate in various event formats together with teachers in problem solving with the help of mathematical modeling and computer use. They explore real problems from everyday life, industry or research. More information is available at www.scc.kit.edu/forschung/CAMMP.php

Professional training and other internships

The SCC provides training in the professions of information technology, participates in the training of students of the Duale Hochschule Baden-Württemberg in Karlsruhe and offers students as well as pupils several weeks of practical training, if suitable topics are available. Upon request, guided tours for school classes with a focus on computer science are also possible. In addition, the SCC offers a program for schoolgirls on the annual Girls'Day.

Announcements of continuing education events are listed in the SCC calendar of events, for which a subscription service is also available.
