Comments from teachers and students

Some comments from students andf teachers following school visits by the Schools Liaison team.

Teachers

Useful for me to find out about research areas
Very well prepared - good balance between developments in Physics and University specific projects
Sounded as if it (School of Physics at Birmingham) has "finger on the pulse" of current research
The pupils were very impressed
A very good level for the students - interesting
Particularly enjoyed snapshots of present and past students and their destinations
Brought in many interesting topics - showed the depth of Physics & what it leads to
Very informative & useful
Language used appropriate to students' experience
Good to have an ex-teacher giving the talk - can use the right language

The presentation was very informative, especially the mini movies
The level of the talk was just stretching enough
Some very interesting new Physics ideas
I found it very useful as I'm considering Astrophysics
Has encouraged me to look more into it
Very interesting even though I'm not considering Physics degrees
A range of topics were covered and they were all very informative
I felt a scary warming towards Physics
A number of things updated my existing knowledge
I'm now considering a Physics degree
I'm now aware of what new research is happening
I didn't know there were so many possibilities
I have learnt something about the latest Physics
I think there is a lot more to Physics now
[Physics degrees] are much wider than I thought before in terms of specialisation
