The Band have also been invited to perform at the Le Mans Festival this summer - look out for some fundraising activities, including a special gig on 26 Aprill in the Crawfurd Theatre. The Millennium Postgraduate Student Project aims to provide students and staff with teaching and learning tools through a series of web-based courses. The first course to be launched is Preparing and Presenting a Poster. The aims of this course are to empower students and staff to design their own posters, to give guidance on verbal and visual elements and to illustrate good practice in examples. This course will be of use to a wide range of people, including students and staff in schools, further and higher education and other professional groups.
Access is free.
