New Teaching Labs and Reduced Outreach
Oxford University is in the process of building new teaching laboratories for our undergraduate students. While these labs are much anticipated it does unfortunately mean we will have to reduce the amount of outreach we can offer to give the staff the opportunity to move all the equipment to the new labs. The move and subsequent reduction of outreach will take place between May and October 2018.
