The Solent Branch Lecture Competition provides entrants the opportunity to give a 20-minute presentation on an aerospace topic to a live audience, thus allowing them to gain experience of presenting in a realistic environment. It also provides an avenue for the winning entrants, and runners-up, to enter the main society’s prestigious N E Rowe Lecture competition.

The topic should consist of an original presentation on any aspect of aerospace which is of particular interest to the entrant, or in which the entrant has been personally involved. In the case of a group activity the entrant should clearly define his role in the project or study.
