Are you involved in public engagement with research? Have you worked on a brilliant project that you want to share? The NCCPE Engage Competition is back for 2016 and open for applications.

The NCCPE are running this national competition to find and celebrate high quality public engagement with research projects.

Across the UK researchers are engaging the public in lots of different ways and for lots of different reasons. We want to recognise and reward high-quality examples of public engagement in practice, and we want you to get involved. We are interested in applications covering projects from all disciplines, of any size, length and cost. Whether you are new to public engagement, or have been engaging with the public for years we are keen to hear from you.

There are six competition categories, and the winner of each category will receive a prize of £1,500 to go towards further public engagement work.

  • Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences
  • Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM)
  • Health and Wellbeing
  • Engaging With Young People
  • Working In Partnership
  • Individually Led Projects

The closing date for entries is Monday 18 July 2016 at 12 noon.
