Pupils from the Brilliant Club attended the launch of their collaboration with Newcastle University on a project titled “Illuminating the Body” this week. The day involved: an introduction to research skills and methods and their first tutorial with their tutor who is studying a PhD in Environmental Engineering. Time was also spent on an extensive campus tour with a university ambassador, where pupils were shown lecture theatres and saw the ongoing construction of new halls of residence. Next, pupils met with another student currently studying at Newcastle who gave them an in depth description of what student life entails.
Everyone had a fantastic day- pupils are now ready to focus on the homework tasks they were set in preparation for their second in school tutorial on April 18th.
