another enriching day of outreach with some super engaged groups of year 8 students! It was extremely tough to judge our robot programming competition and we needed the help of our volunteers to decide! Thanks as always to the WP and outreach team for supporting us in running these events :)
Looking for a truly enriching master's experience? Become a technical specialist, on a blended course including some taught modules and loads of time on one of our wonderful shared research facilities at @livuni-livsrf.bsky.social (we included!!)

What a great Christmas do with the @cbflivuni.bsky.social team yesterday. Happy times, wonderful end of a great year!
if this sounds fun and you're interested in partnering with us or gaining volunteering experience, we’d love to hear from you - please get in touch! 😊 (and you'll get the chance to play with our LEGO robots too, they're lots of fun!)
we had a team of volunteers—external, masters students and a phd student—who kindly gave up their saturday to help out. they worked extremely hard all day, ensuring the event was a success. outreach helps change perceptions of data careers and give junior colleagues opportunities for development
last saturday we partnered with @livunihls.bsky.social's public engagement team for their regular 'meet the scientists' event at the eureka! science + discovery museum. our stall (led by @ejjohnson93.bsky.social) aimed to show that scientists can be programmers too and was a huge success!
