We have Interdisciplinary Seminars most weeks during term-time. These are usually at 1 PM on Wednesdays in Meston 311. The aim of these Seminars is to hear about research from other disciplines across our University and outside it. Seminars either have two 20-minute talks or a single 40-minute talk, followed by discussion. See the tab above for upcoming Seminars, and Past Seminars for examples of recent Seminars.
All members of the Department are welcome: undergraduates, postgraduates, postdocs, teaching staff, technical staff - anyone who would like to attend and learn a little bit about what our speakers do in their research careers. Members from other disciplines within the School, and the wider University community, are also welcome to attend.
All PhD students in Physics are expected to attend these Seminars as part of their PhD training.
Seminars are organised by Dr Sandip George. Join the mailing list to get updates on upcoming Interdisciplinary Seminars.
The Department of Physics plays a leading role in academic and research events at the University.
Recent events at the University led by Physics included the 52nd IoP Annual Plasma Physics Conference in 2026 and Dynamics Days Europe in 2022.
We will host the Communicating Astronomy with the Public (CAP) conference in 2028.
