QES End of Year Poster Session (Policy Paper)

-

Quantitative Environmental Sciences is a course offered in the Natural Sciences Tripos at Cambridge for second year students. As part of the course, students make a policy paper, using an environmental data set that they need to present to answer a question. The policy paper is in the form of a modified POSTnote, which includes figures. We are holding a poster session and end of year party where many of our students will present their policy work and would love to discuss with you their approach. This year's policy paper topics were:

*Groundwater Contamination and Seawater Incursion in India

*Air Pollution in Cambridge and what the University should do about it

*Flood Risk in the UK and its impact on housing prices

*Iceberg frequency off Antarctica and risk to shipping lanes

The party and poster session this year will be on June 11th, from 4:30-7pm, in the Department of Applied Maths and Theoretical Physics on Clarkson Road in the Core Pavilion A. Light refreshments and drinks will be provided. Please complete this form if you plan to attend.
