Our Public Lecture Programme

Once a month we host free lectures led by top academics and professionals from across the UK that cover an enormous variety of different Earth science topics.

These lectures are open to all, and usually take place at our London headquarters in Burlington House, Piccadilly. They are also live streamed online. In addition recordings of every lecture are posted on our YouTube channel.
