Part of MOAC's funding covers an "annual conference" for all the students and interested staff, usually held in May. These are multi-day events held away from Warwick to foster group spirit, with self catering meals planned by the student cohorts - generally including at least one BBQ thanks to our director's Australian heritage. The core of the scientific activity is talks and posters from the MOAC MSc students at the end of their first mini-project. To date, the venues have all been Youth Hostels:
