St Andrews

Kindly hosted by Olexandr Konovalov at the University of St Andrews, we’ll be hearing about the St Andrews RSE team from Olexandr and also finding out what it’s like to volunteer at RSECon from volunteer chair Becky Smith.

Inaugural meeting

Our very first ScotRSE event took place virtually on Wednesday 14th June 10-11 online.

This first event provided an informal opportunity for various RSEs to get to know each other a little and to think about community building and how they would like to see the community evolving.

Keep in touch!
