BU Research Blog

With the new academic year underway and everyone getting stuck into their studies, Freshers’ Fair takes a vital role in making the new arrivals feel a part of Bournemouth University.

Freshers’ Fair had an amazing range of things to offer to the new students, which did not go to waste, as the amount of people there was outstanding (the glorious weather helped a little!).

So this was the perfect opportunity to highlight some of the ground breaking research at BU. I promoted different events such as 14:live and Talkbu, as well as some new features on the research website like Photo of the Week and Researcher of the Month. I also displayed the prestigious ESRC photography competition which has some incredible pieces of photography.

The engagement and curiosity of the students at the Fair made it a pleasure to represent RKEO and BU at the event. I feel like it gave a valuable insight to the new students to a key part of the university!
