A message from the Dean |
Professor Allan Layton |
Following our latest graduation, we welcome another 465 Alumni to the Faculty. It was a great day, with an inspirational speaker who encouraged graduates to contribute their skills to the wider community, pointing out that even a few hours of community service a month can make a difference in peoples' lives. Especially pleasing was that we graduated nine PhDs and two DBAs who have made a great contribution to our research.
In this edition, the Faculty celebrates the achievements of Faculty staff members and the ongoing initiatives of our Alumni. We look forward to working with our Alumni to ensure our relationship with you continues beyond graduation.
