Alumni days

For the first time, UoB is arranging the alumni days on Friday 9. and Saturday 10. May. This is going to be a weekend with scientific input, social gathering and a broad selection of popular scientific contributions. The detailed program is published in the alumni portal.

 

Registration form for employees can be found here. There is no registration fee, however, one has to be registered as alumnus. We encourage everyone, also earlier students, to register themselves here.

Have a good one,
