On the day

Our Open day is made up with over 40 individual demos. Presenting these will be our staff and students with representation from 1st year right through to PhD students. Demos will be from coursework and research projects and represent some of the highlights from the academic year.

Our exhibitors will be present and look forward to discussing their work with our visitors.

All our rooms, offices and teaching spaces will be filled with demos and we will be open to welcome visitors from 11am – 2pm – you and your team are most welcome at any point during this time.

What’s on show on the day

During the academic year, we will expand our list of exhibits as courses and projects are completed.

By April we will have a full list of exhibits and expect this to include over 40 individual exhibits.

A range of projects will be on show covering the full range of our work in the School of Computer Science. Our show will include projects, posters and demos from all of our staff and students (post- and under-graduate).
