Faculty Research Symposium
Faculty Research Symposium 2013
The Faculty Research Symposium is an annual showcase of research excellence across all Research Groupings within FLS. The event includes oral presentations from the very best and brightest post-doctoral researchers and post-graduate students who have published a first author research paper in a top journal of international repute during the previous year.
Second year post-graduate students give poster presentations, and the highlight of the event is a Special Seminar from the FLS Researcher of the Year.
Prizes are awarded for the best post-doctoral and post-graduate presentations and poster presentations during the symposium. Additional prizes are awarded for the FLS Lay Summary Writing Competition and UMIP prizes for Industrial Innovation and Collaboration.
The symposium forms an important part of our Graduate Training Programme for all post-graduate students. It is particularly important as an introduction to the Faculty (and climactic event of Intro Week) for our first year post-graduate students, exposing them to the quality, scope, and vigour of the research community they are joining.
A range of sponsorship opportunities for this prestigious event are available. If you are interested in finding out more, please contact Renee Holland:
