Alumni Newsletter
Our alumni newsletter brings together news, voices and stories from across the School, including research highlights, staff and student news, and stories from graduates building careers around the world. The Summer 2025 edition is out now.
In the 2025 edition
As the School approaches its twentieth anniversary, the Summer 2025 newsletter looks back at a landmark year. Read about the findings of the School's first Quality Review since 2009, meet the eight new academics who joined our four departments, and hear from Head of School Professor Paul O'Grady on the strategic vision taking shape for the decades ahead.
Two major inaugural lectures made their mark on the year: Professor Carol Newman on evidence-based development in an uncertain world, and Professor Taha Yasseri on the myths and realities of artificial intelligence.
There's also news from the BESS Alumni Panel, the 2025 Dermot McAleese Teaching Assistant Awards, and much more from across Economics, Philosophy, Political Science, and Sociology.
