About
You are invited to attend the BPS Scottish Undergraduate Conference on Saturday 30th March 2024, hosted by the School of Psychology at the University of Aberdeen!
The BPS Scotland UG conference celebrates the rich diversity of undergraduate research in Scotland. This conference provides a forum for final year psychology students to deliver a conference talk based on their final year thesis project, whilst also providing an opportunity to meet students from other universities and learn about their work.
Over an extended lunch break the Futures Fair hosts representatives from all the major Divisions of the BPS (e.g. Clinical, Health, Occupational etc) where you can meet practitioners to discuss their profession and to get careers advice.
Situated along the northeastern shore, the School of Psychology at the University of Aberdeen is excited to welcome you to its historic campus. We look forward to welcoming you to Aberdeen for this celebration of outstanding undergraduate research in psychology.
