The Faculty of Brain Sciences is pleased to announce its Fourth Annual Undergraduate Conference, Monday 27th March 2017, 1.00 - 6.30pm.

Students are invited to give 10 minute presentations with 5 minutes for questions, on the topic of their research project or dissertation. Students in the final stages of writing up projects/dissertationscan give a presentation on work in progress and receive feedback that will benefit your work.

All students will receive individual feedback about their presentations from an academic member of staff and anonymous peer feedback from the student and staff audience.  This is an excellent opportunity to showcase the amazing research that our undergraduate students carry out in the Faculty and to enhance their presentation skills.  This is good practice for interviews for Masters or PhD places where you might be asked to talk about your research project/dissertation.
