Outreach and Public Engagement
DPAG has an impact on the world not only through the innovative and internationally-renowned research that goes on in the department, but also through the engagement and outreach that the department has with the wider community. From lectures and talks open to the general public, to school visits and fundraising events, staff and students alike at DPAG are involved in a wide range of activities that benefit those outside the walls of our departmental buildings.
