MexiCOPAS 2021

June 28 – July 2, 2021. León, Gto. México
(with MSSS 5-14 July, 2021)

MexiCOPAS is dynamical, interactive and modern school to prepare the next generation of Mexican leaders in Cosmology, Astroparticle Physics and String Theory. The schools considers a basic program on the fundamental language common to these three areas, building up to a specialized event in each area. Attendees may find their way through the school according to interests and future perspectives. Details of the program may be found here.

The three specialized events are
