Annual Events
Geological Survey Ireland participates in a number of national events every year. This gives people the chance to interact with our scientists, understand our data, have a chat, and maybe even win a prize or two!
BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition
We have a large, interactive stand at the BT Young Scientist and Technology Exhibition every year in January. Join us to experience the lighter side of geology and have some fun! For students, if your project has a geological component, you could be with a chance of winning our coveted BTYSE geology award.
