UPCOMING EVENTS

University of London Taster Days

The School of Architecture, Computing and Engineering is running undergraduate taster courses in a range of specialisms including Architecture, Design and Innovation, Computing and Engineering. During this one day course in Summer 2013 we will be holding a series of lectures, workshops and seminars together with exciting hands on activities in the laboratories and studios. The aim of the day is to give prospective students a better insight into what careers in our subject areas entail.

As well as having the opportunity to tour our state of the art Docklands campus, you will interact with current students and have the opportunity to talk to lecturers. The course aims to provide you with firsthand experience into university life.

The taster days are run in collaboration with the University of London and will run at UEL's Docklands Campus
