Represented Queen's University Belfast EEECS/EPS at the BT Young Scientist event, working alongside a team composed of students, staff, and academics from EEECS. A professional and engaging experience was delivered for QUB's first appearance at the event. In addition to fielding general questions about the university and engineering study courses, a contribution was building and programming a robot head for the demo in collaboration with staff technician Gerry Rafferty. Notably, a student from Northern Ireland won a category award - congratulations were presented on behalf of the university, including small prize and photo release so that the achievement could be acknowledged publicly.
