  • SWDTP Christmas Party- Thesis on a Bauble Competition!

    Dare we mention it so early in the year? It may only be November, but we’ve got to start looking ahead to…

    …

    Christmas.

     

    The SWDTP Christmas party will be held on December 5th in Bristol and all SWDTP researchers and fellows are invited!

    We’ll have the usual mix of Christmas cheer, festive jumpers and a quiz, but this year we’ve got something a bit different!

    Our Christmas tree is looking a little bare and we’d like your help to decorate it in our…

    Thesis on a Bauble Competition!

    Using whatever medium you like, we’re asking you to depict your research on a Christmas decoration. You can download, print and decorate our bauble template , or get a little more creative and design something for yourself. Either way, we’d love you to come and decorate our tree with examples of all the fantastic research being carried out by SWDTP researchers! And don’t forget to bring it along to the Christmas party so we can proudly display it!

     

    There’s fun to be had and prizes to be won!
