We had a great time at our Women in #CompSci programme last week, which gives female & non-binary Year 12 students an insight into studying CS at uni. Students had lectures & workshops, stayed in @trinityhallcamb.bsky.social college, learned about applying to Cambridge & met women working in tech.

Students and staff on our Women in Computer Science programme enjoyed visiting and dining at Trinity Hall College Cambridge. Women in Computer Science is a programme we run every year to give female and non-binary students in Year 12 an insight into studying Computer Science at university.

His exploration of Greenland's rock formations found that the End Devonian mass extinction, almost 355 million years ago, was caused by extensive UV radiation exposure. This exposure triggered a series of detrimental environmental effects, from extreme climates to complete atmospheric breakdown.

The ice shelves of Antarctica act like brakes on the continent’s vast glaciers. When they crack and fail, glaciers speed up and sea levels rise.🌊🧊 Understanding how Antarctica’s ice fails plays a crucial part in predicting global sea-level rise.
