First year in Architecture at Queen’s focuses on spatial interventions that are fundamental to design in cities. During the first year of studies, students are encouraged to pursue architectural ideas and to develop a diverse set of skills, whilst engaging in critical discussions about place, context, scale, process, structure and materiality.
Studying architecture offers the platform for entering many professions and careers in practice and research. Sean will talk about how an architectural education will equip you with the skills and confidence to tackle some of the biggest challenges our world faces. He will discuss the topics and themes studied throughout the school of architecture at Queen's and talk about how these have real-world impacts for imagining and visualising the future.

The camp provides students with an opportunity to revise their surveying skills, while getting further hand-on experience with the use of surveying equipment. Students analyse the data they collect to come up with designs for real-world type assignments, including calculations of volumes of soil to be excavated and laying out the route of a highway.

In this talk Dr Collins tells of his experiences in deep sea exploration and why the island of Ireland lies at the forefront of this exciting field. He also explains why further research is urgently needed into the Earth’s largest and least accessible ecosystem and the conservation challenges that lie ahead.
The SeaMonitor Project is a €4.6M EU funded project following the movements of some of our most prominent ‘megafauna’ to develop UK/Irish conservation strategies. Here Dr Phillips explains how researchers at Queen’s are using state-of the-art tracking technology to learn more about basking sharks and giant flapper skate to aid their conservation.
Queen’s researchers are working with the Charles Darwin Foundation in the Galapagos Islands to balance the needs of growing ecotourism industry against species conservation. Dr Houghton explains how they are using underwater acoustics, satellite tracking and accelerometers (fancy versions of ‘fit bits’) to understand the behaviour and movements of green sea to reduce the potential for boat strikes.
Understanding the impacts of human activities in the ocean is a key role of marine biologists. Here Dr Eagling explains how innovative underwater camera survey methods developed at QUB are providing a non-invasive way of assessing the diversity of species at the seabed that can be used in a commercial context (i.e. assessing where and how a windfarm can be built to enhance, rather than reduce marine biodiversity).
An Introduction to the Physics and Mathematics behind one of the most famous experiments in science.
The beauty of mathematics and physics is that they work together to explain how our Universe works. In this talk we will introduce the physics and mathematics behind one of the most famous experiments in science - the double slit experiment - and how it leads to further understanding in Mathematics and Physics.

Today’s students need to be equipped with the skills to enable them to continue to provide excellence in patient care in increasingly complex and changing clinical environments. The Queen’s Simulation Centre will be one of the few environments in the UK to truly champion simulation based education with an interprofessional approach. Medical, Nursing and Midwifery, Dentistry and Pharmacy students will train together in interactive scenarios that closely replicate the clinical setting. This will build on the University’s experience and expertise to transform training and ultimately enhance the effectiveness and safety of patient care. Professor Gerry Gormley will introduce our new Simulation suite and you will have an opportunity to take part in a live CPR Clinical Scenario.

Cities are one of the most complex phenomena in the universe, the home to the majority of humanity and the drivers of innovation and national economies. The success of cities is not guaranteed – they need coordinated investment and anticipation of future risks, provided by the planning profession. One of the most important duties of planners is to keep city dwellers healthy; this has evolved from ensuring clean water supply and overcrowding in the early industrial era to contemporary health challenges of stemming from obesity, poor air quality and more recently the re-emergence of devastating contagious disease, COVID-19. This talk will explore how we should expect cities to respond to this crisis, and how we can use it as an opportunity to address some of the pre-existing health issues of the 21st Century city.
This talk gives an overview of 'What is Planning' along with definitions, key concepts and examples
