Towards the world's best ice screw
At the vocational training centre in Dietikon, twelve polymechanics apprentices in their third year — including three from the ETH Department of Physics and one from the Department of Earth Sciences — work on an ambitious project: to construct the world's best ice screw.
The Swiss daily newspaper "Tages-Anzeiger" reports on the project of the twelve polymechanics apprentices, among them Michael Egli, Mauro Isepponi and Etienne Mégroz of the Department of Physics and Gabriele Solazzo of the Department of Earth Sciences.
