The festival concludes with Science and Engineering Day, 10:30-16:30, Saturday 16 March at Highfield and Boldrewood campuses.

Welcoming people young and old from across the UK to take part in hands-on activities, demonstrations, workshops, live shows, talks and laboratory tours from across the University’s faculties. The day is a showcase of the research, people and stories across the University and our local community, and relies on the efforts and incredible contributions of dedicated colleagues, students and partners. As well as celebrating this work and sharing enthusiasm for STEAM, the day provides an opportunity to hear from our visitors what their perspectives are and their responses to our research.  Science and Engineering Day features 140+ activities from over 930 exhibitors. It’s free to take part and is suitable for all ages. Registration through Eventbrite is required

Here’s the highlights from last year’s  Science and Engineering Day, to give you a taster of what to expect.

The festival is organised for the University by the Public Engagement with Research Unit/Public and Community Engagement (sharepoint) team and is part of our mission to enable, inspire and connect high quality mutually beneficial engagement between the University and Society.

Please share widely with anyone you think is interested and we hope to see you at the Festival.
