@DCUPhysics @PhysicsDeptUL @PhysicsUofG are delighted to announce a further PDITP intake which upskills teachers to meet @TeachingCouncil requirements for LC physics. Enrolment free for eligible teachers thanks to @Education_Ire funding. Find out more @

@DCUphysics held its annual research day yesterday, with great discussions of undergrad, postgrad and staff research had by all. Congrats to all the winners of the student competitions. Thanks to BOC Ireland for their sponsorship of the prizes.

@DCUPhysics PHA 3rd yr students attending European Space Research and Technology Centre (ESTEC) in Noordwijk, Netherlands as part of their field trip. During the visit they have learned a lot on current & future ESA missions, such as LISA, PLATO and Solar Orbiter.

RT @DCUPhysics: Our Leaving Cert. lab days take place from Dec 2025 to April 2026. Great opportunity for students to get hands on with physics, to develop their understanding and to revise experimental work. Applications close Dec 12th so apply now to book your place
