Student projects
From HEP
We list here a set of projects which are suitable for master or Ph.D. students. The subjects overlap the area of expertise of the ATLAS NBI group members.
Suggested Project proposals
These are examples of current projects which can be started now. Follow the link for each project to get more information or go directly to the page. You can also contact people for more detailed questions.
