We had an absolutely fabulous time at our 25th Graduate Forum yesterday! ❤️🎊

It was a really uplifting & inspiring day, where we heard from a huge range of our PGRs, both through their posters & presentations. It was a fantastic showcase of the real variety of research undertaken in our School & these individuals are at the forefront of research addressing vital global questions.

A huge congratulations to our prize winners, all the students involved throughout the day, & of course the organising committee, our final year students who bought it all together. They really went above & beyond to make sure this anniversary was a really special one.

& A huge thanks to our plenary speakers for making the time to share their knowledge & experience with us, as well as our sponsors who helped support the event.

We can't wait to see what's in store for 2027...
