FUTURES2020 promises to be bigger than ever before with researchers from the GW4 Universities of Bath, Bristol, and Exeter joining researchers from Bath Spa University and the University of Plymouth to showcase their work.
The event will showcase the varied and cutting-edge research taking place at these universities and across the region, as researchers lead interactive activities and demonstrations across the South West.
This year’s planned highlights, from 27th to 28th November, include a special Up Late at Holburne Museum in Bath, a takeover of Exeter Cathedral, talks at Brunel’s SS Great Britain, science busking in The Galleries shopping centre in Bristol, and young people exploring the history of piracy aboard a naval frigate in Plymouth.
There are lots of ways researchers, research teams and postgraduate research students can get involved and share their research with the public. Organisers anticipate majority of activities to go ahead with measures in place to protect against COVID-19, but they are also taking FUTURES2020 online, creating digital opportunities to engage with exciting research.
