Welcome to the 2025 Computer Science and Engineering Expo.

I love the expo. It's that time of year. We can see the lights at the end of the tunnel.

This is a showcase of what students have been working on for their final year projects, so we can actually see the results in public.

They can show their friends, show colleagues, show academics, and also show businesses.

There's also businesses here today giving short talks, and often they will have jobs available.

Or they might want to interview a few of the students.

And there's no better way of making a first impression than the poster showing probably the biggest project they've worked on so far.

My name is Pranav Rookie SPG. I'm a third year Electronic Engineering student here at Bangor.

my project is on making biodegradable electronics, specifically our tree cellulose.

So at the moment most of the electronics that we have goes well until the end of life cycles made out of petroleum based things.

It's really toxic to the environment. So this essentially out there, the end of life cycle can go and be turned into compost.

So the whole thing is biodegradable. When you make electronics, your body produces like 100,000 skin cells every second.

So even one of those can contaminate a sample. So I work in a clean room, which basically covers my whole body.

So I have to work in a room where 81,000 particles exist any second.

We've got some companies here today. There's talks going on throughout the day as well.

Some of the students have got some CVS with them,

so it's an opportunity for them to see not just what's out there but what's out there locally as well.

So all the companies that with us today are local. My name is Brad Newman and I work for the TV and aerial filming specialist company Aerial Works,

where we specialise in aerial footage for television and film, and we also do R&D as well.

So we wanted to see what the latest and greatest minds coming out of Bangor University are.

And what they could potentially offer us in terms of the R&D side of things.

Plus it also gives them a little bit of an insight into seeing what sort of industries that are to offer,

you know, not just the stereotypical sort of industries. There's always people looking for stuff in the drone world as well.

My project is exploring VR interaction for history education.

So basically you're set in the Roman times.

and you've got a table in front of you with artefacts where the player picks them up and interacts with them.

The support from the lecturers is really good. Um, they have an open door policy where you can go in and ask them anything.

So they've worked with me very well. with the community.

It's just a lovely place to be here. Over the last three years I've had a variety of different modules.

I've had app focussed modules, UI focussed modules, game focussed modules,

and I wanted to combine them into one final project which was creating a UI that people could use to track their progress.

and all my lectures that I've had have also helped me.

I've spoken to them individually about the projects as well, so I've had a lot of help from them.

Can you tell me why this expo is such a good opportunity for students like yourself?

Yeah. Well, first of all, hence the name, um, Expo is a good way to expose my products to other people.

Also, it's a good opportunity to see other people what they'd be working on at.

It's it's great just to come together, isn't it, to share everything really.

Well, that's the end of 2025 Expo for Computer Science.

I've really enjoyed looking around today, seeing what the students should be doing, and good luck to everybody in the future.
