UNIROMA1: PHOQUSING at Porte Aperte alla Sapienza 2024

20-22 March 2024

20th-22th March 2024, Sapienza University has organized the traditional annual event Porte Aperte alla Sapienza (https://orientamento.uniroma1.it/#porte-aperte), which is intended for high school students as a orientation event to choose consciously which University course to enroll. This event is organized an annual basis and has typically a very large audience, covering all high schools of the territory in Rome and in the neighbouring regions. Different activities are offered to the students. The Faculty of Science proposed a conference to present the bachelor courses activated in the next year (typical attendance approx 400 students), as well as informative stands (typical attendance >1000 students). Starting from 2023, the event includes visits to research laboratories.

In the 2024 edition, the Quantum Lab has participated to Porte Aperte through the availability of its laboratories for external visitors, providing communication to the general public of the research activities (https://web.uniroma1.it/fac_smfn/labsporteaperte2024).

This has specifically included the organization of visits and lab tours for the general public to the QOLOSUSS machine (e.g., see picture below), thus allowing an additional channel to communicate the PHOQUSING project activities to high school students.
