Our activities are aligned to fit with your curriculum and support your teaching in the classroom. If something doesn’t quite suit, or you have a specific request, please get in touch and we’ll work with you to develop an activity that meets your needs.
There are no events at this time.
We know it’s not always possible to bring your students out of the classroom to experience higher education, so we can bring the higher education experience to you. If you would like to arrange a bespoke visit to campus we can extend these talks into longer taster sessions.
Criminals thrive in the shadows, concealing their actions from the authorities. But what if your mission was to uncover the truth—analysing crime, understanding patterns, and devising strategies on how to stop it? Step into the covert world of intelligence analysis and become the unseen force that shapes justice.
Crime dramas blend fact and fiction, often showing a single character doing everything from collecting evidence to performing autopsies. But real-life forensic investigations involve many specialists. Who prepares a body for transport? Who examines the crime scene? Who analyses the evidence? This talk untangles the reality behind the roles, revealing the teamwork behind every case.
We examine the fascinating evolution of forensic science and discover how cutting-edge scientific methods help unravel mysteries and bring criminals to justice.
When a crime is committed, offenders often leave behind more than just physical evidence, they may also leave clues about their behaviour, motives, and identity. We explore how forensic intelligence helps investigators analyse patterns, link cases, and build profiles of suspects. From crime scene clues to behavioural analysis, we’ll uncover how science supports the search for those responsible.
You have a nasty chest infection, so you visit your local GP, who takes a sample. Have you ever wondered where the sample goes, what’s done with it, and what it’s used for? Biomedical scientists help in more than 70% of diagnoses, handling more than 150 million samples every year. We examine the vital role of biomedical scientists in the NHS, research and industry in the fight against disease and poor health.
Why do some foods help reduce the risk of heart disease and cancer? Are we making any progress against fighting obesity? How can we best supply healthy food and meet the needs of a growing population? We examine the key areas in food science and look at technological advances in food production.
How do doctors get the right medication to the right patient at the right time? What does personalised medicine’ mean? We discuss how research is identifying cutting edge biomarkers to help predict disease progression, severity and drug response, and how this has a significant impact on patient outcomes.
Ever wondered how medicines know exactly where to go and what to do in your body? We explore the science behind drug development and drug action. Students discover how scientists design and optimise drugs and how these innovations lead to life-saving treatments. Through real-world case studies, students see how pharmaceutical science and pharmacology work together to create powerful drugs that transform healthcare.
Biology helps us understand everything from the molecules that make up life, to the complex interactions within ecosystems. We embark on a fascinating journey through the science of life. Whether it’s cells, genes, organisms, or the environment, expect thought-provoking questions, surprising facts, and a fresh look at the world around you.
