Alumni Associations and Events With established alumni associations spread across the world, there are endless opportunities for graduates to stay connected to life at Edinburgh Napier. This year, we celebrated with our graduates in Europe and North America. 40 year BSc Industrial Design & Technology reunion French Alumni Association Have you visited our new online merchandise shop yet? We were lucky to be reunited with a fantastic group of graduates from the BSc Industrial Design & Technology course who were celebrating 40 years since they began at Edinburgh Napier! To celebrate, the group had a tour of the Merchiston campus to see the developments that have taken place since 1976, before making their way into Edinburgh to continue their celebrations. Thanks to Dr Iain MacDonald for leading the tour and posing for a photo with the group! We’re looking forward to celebrating the next milestone in 2020. In June 2016, we celebrated 10 years since the launch of the French Alumni Association at the Highlander Pub in Paris. To mark the occasion, Professor Ian Smith from the School of Engineering & the Built Environment joined us for drinks and canapés to reminisce and celebrate. What’s New… With over 2,000 graduates in France, it was wonderful to visit the country again and meet up with some of our graduates.
