CDT RAS Conference

We are delighted to announce that we will once again be hosting the Annual CDT Conference on Wednesday, 28 February 2024. The conference will be held at Southall which is located in the Pollock Estate.

The conference will begin at 09:00hrs and end at 17:00hrs. There will be several speakers throughout the day, and you will have the opportunity to speak to industry partners, as well as other students within the CDT programme. We will be asking students to submit posters which will be displayed during the conference, and all CDT students will have a chance to briefly present their research. There will be a dinner at the Playfair Library following the conference, to which all attendees are invited.
