Still Images from the Graduation Video Room

Students representing the many MSc courses within Computer Science, stopped by the video room yesterday, to provide a short snippet of their MSc experience. Excellent work everyone. Videos will follow in due course. A bit of reflection and much hilarity ensued but here is a clue as to the personalities involved.

Bake Sale for Children in Need

It’s Children In Need this Friday. Well done to Sophie Gent, who raised £133 for children in need in October. The delicious cakes were the result of 3 days hard baking in the Gent household. They proved to be very popular and were certainly a welcome addition during coffee time in the school. Find out Bake Sale for Children in Need

PhD Reading Party 2012

The PhD Reading Party was held at the Burn House, just outside Edzell in the North East of Scotland. It was an opportunity for the research students to give a talk in a relaxed atmosphere, about their research interests. It also allowed for some socialising while wandering through the nearby woods and rivers. Each student PhD Reading Party 2012
