Is anyone else excited for a new month? Here at the College of Science, we are.

March is by far one of the most exciting months for us and science, with British Science Week giving us a 10-day celebration of science, technology, engineering, and maths from 11-20 March.

Over the past couple of months, we have been busy planning our on-campus event to celebrate British Science Week. Our event will take place on Wednesday 16 March, from 12:30pm until 4pm, in our Isaac Newton Building at our city-centre Brayford Pool Campus.

The event will include a science showcase, where you will be able to get involved with interactive activities, including testing out our fantastic Virtual Reality equipment – how cool is that? We will also have a schedule of talks delivered by some of our academic staff who are experts in their fields and can’t wait to share their passion with the next generation of scientists.
