Pint of Science 2024

Friday, 20 October 2023
The international science festival is looking for volunteers.

Pint of Science is an international science festival that takes place in May each year and sees science researchers making their way from the lab to the pub to share their research stories with the public.

Organisers are currently looking for a team of enthusiastic and inventive volunteers to help run the festival in May 2024. The role requires part-time commitment from October 2023 – May 2024.

Pint of Science is a great way to boost your CV and to develop your team-working, event management and science public engagement skills, plus you’ll meet likeminded people and help showcase the world-class science that happens at UK universities.

At the festival, we have the opportunity to host events on the following topics:

  • Beautiful Mind (neuroscience, psychology and psychiatry)
  • Atoms to Galaxies (physics, chemistry, maths, astronomy)
  • Our Body (medicine, human biology, health)
  • Planet Earth (geosciences, plant sciences, zoology)
  • Tech Me Out (biotechnology, robotics, computers)
  • Our Society (law, history, politics, policy, languages)
  • Creative Reactions – where science meets art (a gallery space showcasing work inspired by our speakers)

This year, event organisers are looking to recruit team members, event leads, a finance manager and a social media manager.

For more information, visit the Pint of Science website and if you have any further questions, contact the team.
