Pharmacy is involved in a number of engagement activities, ranging from subject tasters to summer schools and residential events.

Able, Gifted and Talented events

Specifically the School of Pharmacy runs four Able, Gifted and Talented events over the course of the year:

  • The story of Aspirin usually held in December which is aimed at year 10 and 11 students,
  • The Medicinal Chemistry Masterclass (new this year) aimed at year 11 and 12 students,
  • The Chemistry and Pharmacy Summer School - a two day residential summer school, usually held in July targeted at year 12 students 
  • Discover day aimed at year 12 students.

Community University Engagement at UEA

UEA has a small dedicated Community University Engagement team, Julie Worrall and Ruth Selwyn-Crome, who are on hand to advise staff and students about different aspects of their engagement activity including ideas, planning, evaluation and impact.  Financial and practical assistance is also available via a Small Expenses Fund and the loan of equipment such as audio recorders.  You can find more information and case studies on the Community University Engagement website.
