Credit requirements
In addition to attending 60% of CLASS, students must participate in a post-lecture discussion forum with the guest speaker, maintain a record of those seminars attended and a related notebook. Students must critically assess seminars by either (i) providing a brief summary of what they learnt or deemed most important from each seminar or (ii) preparing and delivering a presentation on one seminar topic.
What does it cover?
National and international scientists working in areas related to Conway research programmes are invited to present their research and share their experiences with Conway researchers.
Why enrol?
Students will:
• become critically aware of current scientific research being carried out by national and international experts across a range of biological science areas
• develop critical thinking skills on the scientific process
• develop scientific writing skills
• learn optimum strategies for presenting scientific research talks.
