Our Outreach Lectures are a series of specially developed talks based around areas of our current research. Each lecture is designed to link into current affairs and to present issues raised in an engaging multidisciplinary way. Seminars on a related subject are available to follow the lecture, although either can be booked as a stand alone session if so preferred.
The content is designed to stretch and challenge students in Years 12 and 13 from all subject backgrounds with no specialist subject knowledge required. The sessions also provide the opportunity for participants to develop their note-taking and critical thinking skills. Students are also encouraged to articulate their thoughts and views in question and answer sessions.
These events can be delivered at your own institution or on our campus. The lectures are suitable for any size group, while the seminars are most successful with groups of no more than 30 students per member of staff.
Lesson plans and resources can be emailed out in advance should staff want to be involved in the delivery of the seminar sessions.
