European Schools' Science Symposium
The 2026 edition of the European Schools Science Symposium was a success. Take some time to listen to our podcasts to know everything or almost about this event.
We all returned to normal life on Thursday after four very exciting and rewarding days at EEB2 and EUROCONTROL. The scientific projects of students varied from sustainability and wellbeing to AI and multilingualism. All themes aimed at some ways to improve the wellbeing of individuals, students, ecosystems, and the world. EUROCONTROL itself was a place to explore, increasing our knowledge of European aviation, satellites and the different professions in the field of science. The finalists got to present their projects in Eurocontrol’s conference room. The event culminated in a speech by Hungarian astronaut Tibor Kabu.
