Autumn 2019, alumni update:
We had plenty to celebrate in October! It was the University's 53rd birthday and a week earlier, Team Bath men's 1st XV stormed to a 52-25 BUCS Super Rugby victory over Cardiff University.
On the night, we launched our Ivor Powell Sports Scholarship crowdfunding campaign to support a student athlete at Bath. Find out more.
We also opened a simulated pharmacy on campus, thanks to a donation in memory of honorary graduate Dr Kirit Patel MBE. The £100,000 gift from Day Lewis Pharmacy will enable students to learn through realistic patient interactions. Read more or watch the video.
There's still more to look forward to, as you'll see from our events listing below. You're sure to have a fang-tastic time!
