Are you worried that the public ignore research?  Or concerned that not enough young people pursue research careers?  The Partnerships for Public Engagement (PPE) awards are your opportunity to do something about it.

The awards are a great opportunity for researchers to promote their work and create dialogue with the public about science and engineering.

In 2008 and 2009, the BA will run a series of workshops on behalf of the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC), who fund and organise the PPE grants.  The day-long workshops will be for scientists who currently hold, or plan to apply for, a Partnerships for Public Engagement (PPE) award.

• Find out more about the grants available
• Get tips on making your application
• Meet other grant holders and be inspired by what they do
• Network with other scientists in your subject area
• Find out about other public engagement opportunities in your area
