The ESRC Business and Local Government Data Research Centre is based at Essex, and is a collaboration with its Eastern ARC partners Kent and UEA. As part of its programme it is running a free lecture series on big data, and this year these will take place at Kent. They are open to both University staff, undergraduate and postgraduate students, and the general public. It is an opportunity to hear about big data, how it affects you and the decisions you make, the services you receive and the environment you live in.
The lectures are free and take place as follows:
- 28 Sept, 5:30pm: Canterbury Campus (Darwin Conference Suite)
- 19 Oct, 5:30pm: Medway Campus (Dockyard Church)
- 7 Nov, 5:30pm: Canterbury Campus (Darwin Conference Suite)
