Uni’s European Researchers’ Night bigger than ever

Over 3,000 attended on the night 

THOUSANDS of youngsters, their parents and teachers, plus members of the public flocked to the University of Huddersfield for a spectacular event that showcased the full span of its research in science, technology and the arts. 

For the second year in succession, the University was one of the few centres in the UK to receive EU funding to host an event on European Researchers’ Night, which takes place annually in hundreds of venues across Europe. 

At Huddersfield, the event was titled “full STEAM ahead” – a reference to the fact that it featured research in Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics.
