Overview
Are you keen to network with and discover what research Wolfson College Fellows and Early Career Researchers are engaged in?
This showcase provides an excellent opportunity to emphasize the wide range and significant impact of sustainability research taking place within Wolfson College.
The presentation format will involve a rapid-fire presentation style, with each Fellow allotted time for a brief overview. The goal is not to delve deeply into individual projects but to facilitate exposure of sustainability research within our community and encourage spontaneous discussions and connections.
This event is an opportunity for students and alumni to network with Fellows and leverage each other's expertise for the advancement of sustainability initiatives.
