A course of the European School on Metamaterials operated by the Place: St. Petersburg, Russia The course will present a unique opportunity for students and young researchers to get exposure to the latest advancements in the field of metamaterials and to meet the leading experts in this explosively developing field. The lectures will be delivered by key speakers of the Congress. The topic of the school is: "Tunable and reconfigurable metamaterials" The school course will be mainly focused on the key aspects of metamaterials and related concepts that make them important for the device engineering in the different areas, ranging from acoustics to optics. Comprehensive lectures will take into account the widespread backgrounds of the audience Program of the school:
