QMUL is one of over 20 venues around the UK which is offering families, schools and community groups the chance to come and watch a livestream of the lectures as they’re recorded live at the Royal Institution. These are in-person events.
Some venues are charging to cover costs, other venues are free. If costs are a barrier do contact the Ri (xmaslecs@ri.ac.uk) as there are some free tickets available too and discount codes etc. Also, everyone will be able to watch the lectures when they’re broadcast on television.
The Teaching London Computing / CS4FN team at QMEECS are organising the following events at the People’s Palace on Mile End Road. Colleagues at the Centre of the Cell are also screening the livestream events.
