On this page, we introduce a number of our alumni from different departments. Each has taken their own path after graduation, shaped in part by their time here and by the interests and questions that continue to guide their work. Some have graciously shared their stories; they reflect on where they are now, what drives them, and how their studies have influenced their professional practice. We hope their experiences offer insight into the many directions our programmes can lead.
This is a first selection, we will gradually add more stories over time. As our alumni continue to develop their practices and move through different stages of their careers, this page will grow with them, offering an evolving picture of where a shared educational background can lead.
