Forthcoming Events

Our series of Research Seminars adopt a deliberately inclusive approach, with both internal and external speakers, offering insight into local, national and international research projects in all phases of education. Everyone is welcome.

Seminars are normally held in Building 32 unless otherwise indicated, and tea and coffee is usually served prior to each seminar. For queries regarding Research Seminars please contact the Research office. For queries regarding other events contact the Marketing Office.
