Poster project
The students engaged in a range of lectures and demonstration classes in the mornings and were given time to pursue their own independent research project in the afternoon. The students were encouraged to research in a specific area with the help of the TCD undergraduate student mentors. Twelve research groups with ~4 members per group produced research posters on topics ranging from Nanomaterials to Supernovae. We were very impressed with the standard of posters produced and we hope the students got an idea of what academic research involves.
