Migrants were vital to the economy and culture of Victorian Britain. The project will focus on how intra-European cultural exchange triggered by population movement is embedded in Victorian fiction. It will identify persistent attitudes to a cross-section of European migrants (Irish, Italian and Eastern European Jewish) and the dynamic cultural impact of the migrants themselves. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"520\" src=\"https:\/\/alumni.ucd.ie\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Emigration.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5349\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alumni.ucd.ie\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Emigration.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/alumni.ucd.ie\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Emigration-300x130.jpg 300w, https:\/\/alumni.ucd.ie\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Emigration-1024x444.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/alumni.ucd.ie\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Emigration-768x333.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption>Emigration from Ireland\nto the UK in the 19th century<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4 WOMEN IN STEM <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"color-blue wp-block-heading\">Stories of and for women in STEM<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>To tackle the lack of engagement by girls with science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) in disadvantaged schools, UCD researchers Professor Judith Harford, Assistant Professor Rachel Farrell and Assistant Professor Aoibhinn N\u00ed Shuilleabh\u00e1in worked with more than 1,000 pupils in disadvantaged schools in Leinster to understand more about attitudes to STEM.
