In the actual society, everything goes very quickly: communication,
industry, technogy improvements, science... Too much information for a too short
period of time. We must exchange ideas and work together for a fast advance.
MERCATEC is
a kind of fair organized by the Universitat de Lleida. In April, it is celebrated the 9th edition.
MERCATEC is
an initiative of many Catalan Universities, which establishes a relationship
between pre-university centres and the own universities.
The objectives
of this foundation are to get the teens closer to the society and to make them
possible to start in science world, using practical methods. These types of activities help the students to
open their minds and grow up their scientific vocations. Students share their knowledge
to each other, that way, they all get information about many topics.
This year,
it is expected the assistance of eight hundreds of students from ten different
high-schools and primary-schools. There is going to be also many important personalities
of the science world, like Marc Boada (director of Pendulum) and Víctor Grau
(director of Physics). Both of them are going to collaborate with the
programmed activities.
Everything
seems to say that MERCATEC is going to be a real successful event, this year.
