The School’s annual Poster Day was held on Friday, 06 October 2023. The event was held in the SCMB Podium with 42 posters on display (PDF, 17.9 MB) and 100+ staff and students attending the event. In total we had 21 Physics posters and 21 Maths posters. The School also held its annual Student Publication Award, which received excellent submissions this year, with separate presentations made for Mathematics and Physics. All participating students deserve congratulations for presenting their work in this year’s Poster Day.
Thanks also to Phani Kumari Paritala (HDR Liaison Officer), and SMP staff Sabrina Monaghan for organising the day.
