The University of Leeds will host an open day aimed at children later this month.
University open days happen all over, but staff at one Yorkshire institution like to do something a little different while involving the younger generations. Be Curious, the annual University of Leeds family open day, is back for 2024 on Saturday, May 18 from 10am to 4pm. The university will be open to the public for a day of free interactive and family-friendly activities on subjects ranging from Artificial Intelligence to fossils and medicine to volcanoes.
The Dialect and Heritage Project is hosting the Great Big Dialect Trail, where clues across campus will show how to save lost dialect words from extinction. Visitors will also get the opportunity to learn about Leeds legend John Smeaton – regaded as the UK’s first civil engineer. Researchers will demonstrate how Smeaton’s ideas are still important, 300 years on.
