Unlike 2019, when the event was in person, this year’s COS student research symposium will be online. But the quality of the research on display will be as high as ever.

Student research showcase puts finishing touches on Science Week 2021

The College’s annual celebration of science moved to an all-online format for this year and featured a stellar lineup of guest speakers – including a Nobel laureate in physics – as well as a variety of other virtual events. The week culminated with the awarding of prizes in the Discover symposium, which celebrated students’ excellence in research.
