“By creating we think, by living we learn” Patrick Geddes
Revealing Research is the public engagement office at the University of Dundee. We provide a range of services that support all staff and students in their public engagement and research activities at the University of Dundee.
We work with researchers from all disciplines from arts & design, humanities & social sciences to computing, biomedical and physical sciences.
There are many different ways that you can engage with non-specialist audiences and including public lectures, school workshops, appearing at festivals, speaking to policy makers and involving the public in your research project.
We recognise the importance of communicating your research to wider audiences.
Enhancing the impact of your research on society and increasing the benefits this brings to the public and your work is our key focus.
All of our events can be found at the Engaging Scotland website – the best place to find out about fun and inspiring events in your local area.
