The URJC receives hundreds of participants during the XVI Science Week

The sixteenth edition of the year's largest scientific outreach event has paid tribute to Miguel de Cervantes on the fourth centenary of his death with the aim of disseminating and promoting research on his life and works.

The Rey Juan Carlos University (URJC) has joined this event by organizing activities from different scientific fields, related both to the Spanish writer and to different areas of knowledge.

In total, the URJC has offered more than a hundred free proposals, aimed at all audiences, with the aim of disseminating research results and bringing science closer to society. During these two weeks, more than 2000 participants have attended round tables, conferences, practical workshops, open days, visits to laboratories, exhibitions and educational itineraries guided by experts.
