Dear John, Billy, Paul, Ian, Keith

A Happy New Year to you all !

It is the time of year when I look to find a new committee to organise 
the University Research day and there is to be an information event on 
Jan 24th to help people decide if they want to join or not.

Normally we get around 30 volunteers and the committee only then 
operates between February and June...........so it is not too onerous 
and not too long a commitment.

It is good for those people who would like to grow the citizenship part 
of their CV say for ADR/promotion purposes and/or who would like to find 
out more about the wider university.

This year's event has a KE slant and will be focused on Public 
Engagement..........particularly with schools.

I wonder if I could ask you to forward this email to your dept contacts 
and ask them to circulate it then to their dept colleagues.

Some more information:

The annual University of Strathclyde Research Day will be held on the 
5th June 2013. It is a celebration of Strathclyde’s research 
achievements, an opportunity for the interdisciplinary sharing of good 
practice in research, a vehicle for promoting interdisciplinary 
collaboration, and a training mechanism for early stage career researchers.


This year University Research Day will be focused on Public Engagement 
activities, and will see schools and the public engaging in our 
excellent research. A Dragons' Den Style Event will also take place.

Each year a new organisation committee is formed from a wide range of 
academic and non-academic staff, and early stage career researchers 
across a wide range of disciplines.

If you would like to find out more about the event and how to get 
involved in its organisation then please come along to the “fact 
finding” meeting, 24th Jan 2012, 12:30-13:30, Colville room 405. Lunch 
will be provided.

If you are intending coming then, for catering purposes, can you please
