Abstract

The paper describes the different ways experimented by the Common Centre of Microelectronics of the West of France (CCMO) to inverse the trend of the strong decrease of interest of the students for exact sciences. The work is performed in the framework of the national project FINMINA, devoted to innovative experiences in micro and nano-electronics. The experiences rely mainly on the magic of the presence in clean-room experienced by any new comer. They consist in different duration stays in the clean room for secondary-school students and their teachers as well as in conferences in the schools with direct connection with the clean-room.
