The first British Conference of Undergraduate Research was held at the University of Central Lancashire in April 2011. Over 150 students from across the country presented their research through posters and spoken presentations. Keynote speeches from Simon Haslett and Rod Dubrow-Marshall set the tone for a very dynamic, inter-disciplinary conference.
