UCD, Monday 2nd December - Thursday 5th December

UCD Physics Transition Year Week – The UCD School of Physics hosts a TY Week each year. A new exciting one-day programme which will include interactive seminars, thought-provoking lectures and fun experiments allowing students to experience Physics in the real world. Each of the 4 days is a repeat of the same workshop so there are 4 different opportunities to attend. Participants cannot attend on more than one day.

This programme is a must for any Transition Year student who is passionate about pursuing a career in Science and has an interest in Physics. Participants will be exposed to the work of researchers, academics and clinical professionals who are leaders in their field whilst also gaining an insight into what it's like to study Physics at a university level. For updates on TY Week please sign up to myUCD with the intended start date of September 2022 and register your interest in Physics.

There was sufficient food in the country throughout the 'Famine' years, yet over a million people died from starvation and disease, and millions more were forced to flee.
