Research engagement activities

The engagement programmes are designed to showcase and attract students and staff into the full range of research careers and opportunities available.

Even if you are not interested in being fully immersed in a research career, you may use the opportunity to become more familiar with research and its delivery to enhance your practice career.

Programmes of activities are available for all that re eligible and aim to reach as broad an audience as possible.
