Masterclass at (SCIPP/UC Santa Cruz) Mentor Information

Quarknet Masterclasses would be impossible to run without mentors assisting and leading the students. The class allows students to learn about particle physics at an early age by learning about it and putting it into action by analyzing actual data from the LHC and by sharing their results with other masterclasses.

To be a mentor, it will require your participation on the actual class day (March 17th) and an orientation at UCSC, which is highly recommended but not required (TBA).

To learn more about masterclasses and resources about the role of a mentor for this class, you can browse through the links below:
