This event will be a great opportunity for students to make connections with academics, giving everyone a chance to network and share knowledge of research excellence.

The event will run under a ‘soundbite’ format – short presentations from experienced academics who have already secured research funding, followed by ample time for discussion and engagement.

Researchers will also be able to learn of the wide-ranging support that is available within the department, and familiarise themselves with the current research funding opportunities (both internally and externally) that exist.

Refreshments and a buffet will also be provided. If you cannot attend in person, no need to register here, please Join us virtually instead
