The Gilbert Scott Building, University of Glasgow
Venues
The main venue of the conference, on 16th April, will be The University of Glasgow.
We will have an informal social the night of the 15th April in the Queen Margaret student union. We will have some kind of interactive event – maybe a quiz – so those who have to travel the day before have other people to spend the evening with prior to the big day. This is open to poster contest presenters, organisers and sponsors only.
Taking part
The event is open to all, although you have to register. The poster contests are open to women and non-binary students studying computing (BSc, BA, BEng, MSc, MComp or MEng) in the UK. This year we expect to have about 175 posters. For student attendees the event is free and for poster presenters we try to manage accommodation and also cover travel costs.
Glasgow University Union debates chamber
We have a limited number of tickets for non-student attendees, and you will be able to sign up online nearer to the day.
Programme
On 16th April, the talks will start at about 10:00 with a keynote, and finish around 17:00. There will be a long lunch/poster session in the middle for networking.
We support student attendees in a lot of ways and one of these is to ensure those travelling from farther afield have accommodation – this year we have 5 hotels booked and students have been informed which hotel they are in.
