About the Conference
Always an exciting day, the conference gives us a chance to share the quality and breadth of our research with a wider audience.
Masters and PhD students from both Lincoln University and the University of Canterbury present their research either as a short talk, longer talk or as a poster. Students gain the opportunity to showcase their work while industry professionals from across the water sector learn what is happening in water research.
The conference took place Wednesday 12 November, 2025, at Lincoln University. In 2026, we anticipate the conference to run the week of November 9.
The event is free, thanks to our generous sponsors. If you are interested in sponsoring the 2026 event, please contact Suellen Knopick for more information.
