Staff Visit to the Large Hadron Collider at CERN

Produced by the Learning Skills Improvement Service (LSIS), this case study tackles the theme of STEM skills for the future and knowledge transfer. In this case study, three members of Newcastle College staff travelled to CERN to view the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) particle accelerator. The aim of the visit was to improve knowledge and understanding of scientific principles. The staff were given a guided tour of CERN and viewed a range of exhibitions. They attended a guest lecture presented by a senior figure involved in the development of the Large Hadron Collider.
