Public Engagement

Do you want to know more about the universe? Are you a secret astronomer, or fascinated by technology? The SEPnet partners hold a variety of events that are open to the public or families. A selection of our activities is below, or you can find events in our events calendar.

Exhibitions and Art

Physics lends itself to beautiful images and exciting collaborations with artists. A number of such collaborations are in progress across the region.

LightTAG is a collaboration between SEPnet and the University of the Creative Arts. Exploring youth culture through science and art activities, the resultant exhibition is on tour now. You can view the interactive catalogue online, or visit the blog for more details.

Talks and Lectures

Public lectures and talks are an opportunity to keep up with current research and meet some of the bright minds that are shaping our society. Highlights include the Jim meets... series at the University of Surrey, and the Richard Garriott lectures at Queen Mary, University of London. Visit our Partner Sites for more information.

Open Days

Many of our sites hold public and family open days across the sciences to give you a hand-on experience of university research.
