Can you capture your research project in a single image?
Images of Research
The University Graduate School presents this challenge every year, with the images we receive representing the exciting breadth of research projects our postgraduate researchers are working on at the University of Birmingham.
Applications are open now and will close midnight 31st Jan - click 'register for this event' to get the Zoom meeting details and 'add to my calendar' for a reminder to join us.
Images of Research (IoR) offers postgraduate researchers across the University of Birmingham an opportunity to showcase their research in a creative and innovative manner. Shortlisted entries are displayed in an online exhibition booklet and put forward to feature in print and digital public exhibitions. All you have to do is compose an image (photo, graphic or illustration) and submit it to us with a short supporting description, explaining your image and how it captures your research.
IoR is an ideal opportunity to develop your public engagement skills, by challenging yourself to communicate your research to a non-specialist audience. Images are an engaging and effective way of conveying information, allowing you to think creatively about representing your research. Your image should be simple but striking, compelling your audience to find out more.
Our Images of Research event page provides application details and further guidance.
