In the exciting and rapidly developing world of energy, the NUI Galway Energy Society exists to provide and promote information and material about the needs, challenges and successes occurring in the field of energy today. Through talks delivered by experts in the field, open discussion and provision of relevant literature and films, the society invites it members to become more involved and infor
med in what is one of the modern ages most important concerns. Recent events include the first European screening of ‘The Switch’ a hard hitting and entertaining documentary concerned with possible energy sources for a growing population. Not neglecting one of the most important aspects of any society, we also ensure that EnergySoc is a good place for members to meet people and enjoy themselves by staging trips and more light hearted events as well. Our biggest event is the annual Energy Night, [often coordinated with the Chemistry and Engineering Societies]. The main event is a discussion or debate involving some of the most influential and knowledgeable figures on the Irish energy provision and academic scene, held after smaller scale events such as careers seminars, meet and greet sessions, and of course, some complementary refreshments.
