TESTIMONALS
“The ESRC Festival of Social Science represents a great opportunity to present our research findings to a general audience. I have been organising a session for the last 5 years and find it both a refreshing and enriching experience. The audience interaction is always fantastic, an engaged citizenry is an essential component in creating a push for sound policy making and I think the Festival provides an excellent platform to get people engaged and understand the value of good social science research.”

“Being part of the ESRC Festival of science was a great privilege, being part of the Discovery Day was even more so. The experience of being in a room with the liveliest, creative and thoughtful group of school students who gave so much to the session was a revelation”

Professor of Marketing, College of Social Sciences
"I would like to say a huge thank-you to your team for Friday's taster day; I really enjoyed myself and found the topics so interesting, as well as having such inspirational and knowledgable speakers - it was definitely worth the long trip! I'm going to be sending my university applications in the coming weeks and am applying to Birmingham for two subjects, so hopefully I will see you again in the not too distant future! Again, thank you for all of your help and for providing such a brilliant day"
