It was designed, created and will be delivered by Mihaly Novak, who taught it and has been refining it over the past five years. The course will cover Geant4 basics for creating applications in any domain, but with extra emphasis on topics most relevant to experiments in High Energy or Nuclear Physics. Exercises will be based on Geant4 version 11.3. Lectures will cover all aspects of Geant4 from the basic building blocks of Geant4 through intermediate topics, interspersed with examples that build a progressively more complex application extensible to real use. The course is expected to be of interest to novices and those with basic or partial familiarity with Geant4. Participants are expected to have a reasonable knowledge of C++. A follow-up course is planned in fall with intermediate / advanced topics. Participation in person is recommended, but the remote option is also available. The cost to attend the course in person is 75 CHF for students and 100 CHF for others; for those who are not able to join in person is at the reduced cost of 25 CHF (students) or 50 CHF for those employed. A discount (or waiver) for those with limited means, between studies/jobs or from developing countries is available. Registration is required in all cases.
