July 2013 | Alumni Profiles

This month is a bumper edition with a festival theme as we chat to alumni who are involved in some way, shape or form with this year's Fringe.

We are interested in the role that the University has played in your life, either directly - in terms of skills and knowledge - or indirectly, via friends, experiences or chance encounters.

Please get in touch and you and your experiences could feature on our website.
