Millennium Youth Camp – 100 teenagers selected for the second round
After receiving a total of 995 applications, 100 teenagers aged between 16 and 19 have been selected for the second round of the Millennium Youth Camp (MY Camp) application process. The selection was made by the Millennium Youth Camp Steering Group.
"The level was very high and this made the selection process extremely challenging," said Professor Maija Aksela, who chairs the steering group. "Thorough processing of all the applications resulted in our choosing 49 girls and 51 boys from all five continents for the next round."
Each selected applicant will be contacted personally by the end of January and given further information about the criteria for the second round of the selection process.
MY Camp organisers extended their warmest thanks to everyone who sent in an application. "If you weren't successful this time, please apply again next year," said Professor Aksela. The next MY Camp will be arranged in the summer of 2011.
You will be able to follow a discussion of the MY Camp themes in an online newspaper to be launched in March. Published in English, the newspaper will target young people who are interested in the natural sciences, mathematics and technology. Everyone who applied for the 2010 MY Camp will be notified by email when the first issue is available.
If you would like to participate in production of the newspaper, please contact the Editor-in-chief: Veli-Matti Vesterinen, The Finnish LUMA Centre, veli-matti.vesterinen(at)helsinki.fi
