This year, the College of Social Science will focus its showcase around Applying Social Science at a Civic University. The aim of the event is to engage and improve connections with local partners and showcase research collaborations and their impact on the community.
The Vice Chancellor will open the event and share her vision of a 21st Century Civic University.
Speakers from both the academic and local community will share their work and ideas and there will be networking opportunities throughout the day.
The day will feature presentations of some of the College’s best research as well as showcasing some of the successful work carried out with local partners and communities.
Join us for what promises to be an exciting and thought provoking day.
