Parents/guardians are invited to join us on the morning of the last day of the Taster Course, arriving between 1030 and 1100 on Friday 1st August. You will be able to attend our poster session, where attendees will be explaining their team's solution to a challenge set during the week, and attend a campus and facilities tour (please bring comfortable close-toe footwear if you wish to join one of these). The Taster Course will conclude with a session awarding prizes and certificates. The course officially ends at 1300 on Friday, but you are welcome to join us for a buffet lunch afterwards if you wish.
