Alumni news and events

Together we build: Supporting our alumni entrepreneurial community

To mark Entrepreneurship Week, we caught up with recent graduate and former NUSU Postgraduate Officer Chirag Kumar to hear about his entrepreneurial journey, which has seen him successfully raise £250k to get his business off the ground! We also share how Newcastle University can help budding alumni entrepreneurs.

Step into Christmas (past and present!)

The festive season has well and truly started in Newcastle! To celebrate, we share what local graduates have to look forward to this year and look back at some alumni memories of Christmases gone by.

Remembering Newcastle University during the Great War
