The symposium is an opportunity for research students to present early ideas and work-in-progress to their peers, and receive valuable feedback.

In addition to research student presentations, symposium delegates are treated to engaging presentations from prominent academic and industrial keynote speakers.

The poster session provides authors with an opportunity to design and create posters that describe early stage work, and to discuss their research in a more informal setting.

Industrial sponsors may host recruitment stands at the symposium, providing them with an opportunity to interact with research students.

The event is a great opportunity for research students from different fields to discuss their research, receiving valuable feedback and ideas.

The symposium concludes with a delicious banquet at a local restaurant, providing delegates with a chance to network and discuss the events of the day.
