Women in Physics 2019

This exciting event (organised by Physics Outreach, Imperial College) is aimed at Years 10, 11, and 12 students who are already studying or are considering studying A-Level physics. Not only will attendees be exposed to the frontiers of Physics research and they should leave with a ‘yes you can’ attitude when it comes Physics research.

The afternoon will include a range of speakers from the physics department who are all involved in cutting edge research.
