ACSTAC 2013 is organized under the auspices and accredidation of : the Greek Ministry of Lifelong Learning and Religious Affairs , CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research) and EPS (Εuropean Physical Society)

The underlying logic behind ACSTAC (Anatolia College Science & Technology Annual Conference) is the educational simulation of a scientific conference. In other words students function as little scientists since they select a topic, carry out initial research on that topic and then prepare to come to the conference to present their work, as if they were genuine scientists.

At the same time students become involved with the entire workflow of a scientific conference, that is apart from being presenters, students have the opportunity of serving as organizers of the conference and as reviewers of the scientific papers. In this way students don’t only acquire knowledge through the authoring of their paper, but another group of students succeeds in gaining another form of knowledge through the reviewing process.

Be aware that ACSTAC is changing this year, adapting to the needs of its participants and ensuring greater and more specialized participation. Briefly, this year:

• Students can submit papers in the following three (3) fields: Mathematics, Physics, Information Systems/Computer Science.
• Students are NOT expected to write an abstract but only their full paper, which they will submit (by January 20th) directly for review.
• It is the supervising teachers who should submit the student papers to the ACSTAC electronic submission system (OCS) and not the students.
• Apart from submitting papers students can present an exhibition - groups of students will be given the opportunity to present an exhibition that they have been working on during the year. 
• Students are expected to submit their exhbition proposals by February 10th.
