Outreach Activities
At the CDT, outreach is central to our mission of advancing research and widening participation in fluid dynamics. We believe that sharing knowledge beyond the academic community not only strengthens public understanding of science but also inspires the next generation of researchers.
KS3 Photography Competition
CDT students facilitate an annual photography competition, where school students can submit images or videos, alongside explanation, of fluid dynamics phenomenon occurring in their everyday lives.
Be Curious
As part of our students Professional Development module, they contribute to the University of Leeds' Be Curious annual event. Children and families from across Leeds are invited to join us for a day of fun, creativity and discovery, exploring exciting research happening at Leeds.
Learn more about Fluid Dynamics
Read our CDT student blogs. Learn about the important properties of fluids, finding out how each influences the way a fluid moves and how we see their impact in the real-world.
Reach for Excellence
The University's Reach for Excellence scheme facilitates an opportunity for college level students (in year 12 and 13) to be exposed to research and university life. The fluids CDT regularly carries out session as part of the Reach for Excellence week, to demonstrate experiments within fluid dynamics.
STEM
The University's STEM outreach team aims to inspire young learners in science, technology, engineering and mathematics by delivering activity online, in school and welcoming students onto campus.
MathsCity
MathsCity is a MathsWorldUK production. MathsWorldUK aims to create the UK’s first National Mathematics Discovery Centre, an interactive space to explore the wonders of Mathematics.
