Due
to an overwhelming response, most of the Camps are now full.
There are still some places available at the University
of Sussex and the University of Ulster at
Coleraine.
2008
will see another record year for the Salters' Chemistry
Camps with seventeen Camps being
hosted by Universities across the UK. Preparations began
as soon as the 2007 Camps were finished to ensure another
fantastic year!
We
are thrilled to announce two new Camps will be held at The
University of Cambridge, an addition to the existing back-to-back
Camps at Bath, Bristol, Imperial, Nottingham and Sussex.
Following
the continuing success of the Pharmaceutical Chemistry
focused Salters' Chemistry Camps in 2007, GlaxoSmithKline
have decided to continue their funding towards the same eight
Camps in 2008, at The University of Bath, The University of
Bristol, The University of Nottingham and The University of
Sussex.
The
Royal Society of Chemistry's Aimhigher project, Chemistry:
The Next Generation (C:TNG)
have again agreed to support two back-to-back Camps at Imperial
College, London. As in previous years, the Camp will
be attended by 25 students from Aimhigher schools in the London
area and 25 students from other schools from London and other
areas of the UK.
Applications
for the Camps are now being accepted. Forms were sent
to the schools with the recent issue of 'A Pinch of Salt!'
but they can also be downloaded from the website. Applications
will be considered in the order in which they are received.
For students to secure a place at the Camp of their choice,
they are advised to apply as early as possible
Calling
all Chemistry Teachers!
We
are looking for more teachers to help run the Salters'
Chemistry Camps to be held in the summer of 2008
and in future years. A University Host, a Lead Teacher
and a team of 5 Teacher Mentors are assigned
to each Camp. If you would like the opportunity to work
with highly motivated students and are interested in a rewarding
and fun teaching experience outside of school then click
