BSA History of Science Section - Postgraduate Rep
The History of Science Section of the British Science Association is
looking to recruit a current UK-based postgraduate student from the
history or philosophy of science to join its steering committee. In
addition to advising the BSA on issues related to the history of
science, the section organises a minimum of two events at the British Science Festival, held annually in September by the BSA.
This is a volunteer role and the postgraduate representative chosen will
be expected to attend between 2-3 Section meetings per year and the
festival itself (travel expenses covered). The postgraduate
representative will work with the rest of the Section committee to
source, develop, plan and deliver exciting lectures, debates and other
science communication activities. The role is open to any UK-based
current postgraduate student, who is studying any aspect of the history
or philosophy of science, and is a great opportunity for anyone
interested in public engagement and science communication to get hands
on experience and develop new skills.
