Research Day

The BGCE Research Day is a regular advanced seminar on current topics in computational engineering. There are usually three seminar sessions per semester. The BGCE students contribute to a large extent to the programme of each Research Day.

Note

All digital data will be made available on the Moodle platform for the Research Days.
