The School’s annual Poster Day was held on Wednesday, 18 September 2024. The event was held in the SCMB Podium with 41 posters (PDF, 15.8 MB) on display and 100+ staff and students attending the event. 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 Tara Massingham and Sabrina Monaghan for organising the day.
