Experiment and conduct research with JKU experts in the fields of engineering, computer sciences and natural sciences.
Upper Austria's most comprehensive program for gifted students combines theory and real-world experience in the fields of engineering, computer sciences and natural sciences. Every year, over 100 students from AHS Oberstufe and BHS schools take part in the "JKU Young Scientists" program, meaning they actively take part in specialized workshops and complete an internship in an industrial company in Upper Austria or at the Johannes Kepler University.
