A Celebration of BU PGR Research
This annual conference is designed to showcase the best of BU’s postgraduate research and to provide a unique opportunity for PGRs to present their work within a learning environment. Our multi-disciplinary conference will allow for cross-school interaction as well as opportunities for collaboration, where appropriate.
The 2012 conference will build on the great success of the previous PGR Conferences in 2008, 2009 and 2011.
