INSIGHTS Public Lectures
Welcome to the INSIGHTS Public Lectures website. Public lectures at Newcastle University are free and open to all.
Our aim is to offer a programme that will inform, stimulate, entertain, and excite debate. Many of our speakers are leaders in their field and all have something of special interest to convey. Our lectures cover a wide range of disciplines and frequently include key contemporary issues, particularly those that affect our daily lives. Please note that for some lectures it is necessary to reserve a place in advance.
Recordings of lectures
Many of our lectures are also available to download from our archive. Recordings of lectures are also available from Newcastle University's iTunes U page.
