Student Hub ( ESO )

Wevolver University Technology Exposure Program, which we launched in partnership with Create Education. This initiative aims to bridge the gap between academia and the industry sector.
 
Our goal is to encourage students to share their work beyond the classroom, including with other engineering students, industry experts, and professionals; as determined by a panel of experts from CERN and MIT, the winner of our program will receive:

• $5000
• A dedicated article series, as well as a social media campaign (700.000 followers) devoted to their technology.
• $2000 extra for early submissions*

The program will end on July 31st, 2022.

*Early submissions will have an additional chance of winning an extra $2000. To qualify, you must submit your entry by April 30th, 2022.

You can learn more about the program at www.wevolver.com/student-program/.

Summer Programs 2022

On behalf of Institute for Peace & Dialogue, we would like to inform you about the next Summer Programs in Basel, Switzerland.

Applicants can choose between the 13th Summer Academy and the 3-Month Research Program which may be combined with the 13th Summer Academy participation depending on the applicants` desire and filled application.

Participants will have access to expert knowledge and hands-on experience as all our facilitators are specialists with years of experience academically and professionally in their respective fields. This is truly a great opportunity not to be missed to get or refresh the knowledge, skills and create new worldwide friendship and networks.

We would appreciate if you could forward Summer Program call to your interested colleagues and friends.

The James Dyson AwardLink opens in a new window is returning for 2022 and we’re excited to be reaching out to engage your students in entering the international design competition.

There are some changes to the award this year, such as an expansion into two new countries - making the award increasingly globally prominent. Excitingly, we are also increasing the national winner prize money to £5000, with £30,000 prizes and global media exposure still available for the international and sustainability winners!

Volunteers are needed for a postdoctoral project about finger motion capture The study will validate a method that will be later used to validate mathematical models of the fingers and create novel, body-powered finger prostheses. The project is within the School of Engineering, as part of an ESPRC funded project.

What is ICUR?

Are you and undergraduate student interested in presenting your research to an international audience? Join our ICUR 2022 Student Directors to find out more about the International Conference of Undergraduate Research, discover how you can get involved and enjoy some free hot drinks and snacks.

The information session will give you an idea of what ICUR is and what sort of research you can present - you might not know that you already have plenty of suitable material! There will also be a chance to speak to ICUR Alumni and ask the Student Directors any questions you might have.

ICUR 2022 will be held at the University of Warwick between 26-29th September 2022.

We can all play a role as Active Bystanders to help put a stop to sexual harassment and abuse. Join the Active Bystander intervention course, so that you can develop the knowledge, skills, and confidence needed to safely challenge unacceptable behaviour. Explore what being an Active Bystander is, how we can challenge harmful social norms, and develop techniques and strategies we can use to intervene when it’s safe to do so. HEAR accredited and certificate of participation (no exam/coursework). Run over 5 sessions and facilitated by the Community Values Education Programme (CVEP). Register for term 2 (starting in week 20).

The series includes a programme of talks focussing on key computational skills which are used in everyday research and will feature talks from HetSys PhD students as well as guests from other centres and organisations.

The aim of this series is to create a "computational toolkit" of resources and tutorials, aimed at helping those just beginning in the field, and offering a more practical introduction to computational science as a whole. It will cover a range of topics relevant to someone who’s just taking an interest in computational science as a whole, or a programming tool, but will also include talks on more complex tools.

See flyer here

The website is here: https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/sci/hetsys/outreach/toolkit/ and has details of the upcoming talks.

The series kicks off on the 1^st February at 4pm, and will run weekly at that time via YouTube Live.
