This FREE event brings together a wide range of speakers to discuss the many challenges and opportunities in Embodied Intelligence research! The conference is structured with a morning session and afternoon session each day to accommodate different time zones. Each session includes plenary talks, panel discussions (including flash talks by leading researchers), and breakout sessions as shown in the tentative programme. While plenary and panel speakers are invitation-only, we solicit wider contributions in breakout sessions to facilitate more focused and technical discussions. In addition to traditional conference talks for all prominent and young academics, this year we will be running masterclasses when all participants can come and talk to leading researcher in all fields of Robotic exploration.

Every Friday, 1:30pm - 3:30pm D0.02 Mez

This afternoon, the student common room was used to explore new technology. Our virtual reality headsets were put to use, designing, exploring and collaborating in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. Thanks to all the students who got involved and made this a memorable session.

Every Friday, you can use our Meta Quest 3 headsets to explore virtual worlds, create designs together and much more.

The AOTech team is here to support you to become familiar with this technology and perhaps even use it in your next engineering project.

• Gain hands-on experience with VR
• Get inspired for potential applications
• Collaborate with like-minded peers
• Have fun!

If you're curious to try out VR, join us in D0.02 Mez this Friday, any time between 1:30pm - 3:30pm.

The Language Centre module fair in term 2 will take place in the FAB building on Wednesday 5 March, 14:00-17:00.

Language Centre Module Fairs

This year, SMLC are holding a Language Centre module fair in term 2, which coincides with Eutopia Language Week and one in early term 3 (exact details for this one TBC).

As well as a chance for students to talk to staff about their options with the Language Centre, they will also be able to sign up for taster sessions (at complete beginners’ level) in a variety of languages. By doing so, students will be able to make informed decisions on what will suit them in their degrees and try out a new language.

Please view this page Language Centre Module Fair Taster Sessions

Preparing for your next year can often start at different points, but one of the most important things to consider is how to manage your finances! For some, moving years can mean moving out which can come with its own costs. Check out the budgeting guidance, tips and tricks you might need.

For those looking for something a bit fun, come along on the 4^th of March to the Survive and Thrive Finance Fair, test your taste buds against branded vs non-branded food. Or try your hand at code breaking, and see if you can figure out the missing piece to the puzzle!
