Tyndall TY Week Programme 2025
The Tyndall TY week Programme will take place from Tuesday 4th February – Friday 7th February 2025.
Applications will open Tuesday the 15th October 2024 from 12pm and close Friday the 18th October at 12pm. Due to the high demand, each application will be weighted and assessed. There are a limited number of spaces available and so not every student who applies will secure a place. Students will be notified regarding the outcome of their application by the end of October. Please check your spam and junk folders if you have not received an email by the end of October.
The programme gives transition year secondary school students a flavour of a week in the life of a researcher in our world-class research facility as well as the opportunity to learn about topics like electronics, sensors, materials science, electrochemistry, photonics and physics through talks, demonstrations and lab tours and hands on activities where we can.
As part of the programme, students will also be assigned a ‘mini project’ to research on during the week based on an interview with one of our researchers. Each student must research their assigned topic area and create a presentation in teams of 2-3, which they will present on for 5 mins each at the end of the week.
