Chemical Engineering Diamond Jubilee Alumni event

The Chemical Engineering Diamond Jubilee Event was a journey through our history, looking forward to our future.

The Alumni event was a great success. We listened to memories from alumni through the decades; from the 1950s to the 2000s.

  • 1960s: Harvey Lancaster
  • 1960s: Stuart Strong
  • 1970s: Don Glass
  • 1980s: Fiona Rutherford

Refurbished Chemical Engineering Teaching Lab

The refurbished teaching lab was officially opened with Frank Brangwin from the very first Chemical Technology class (graduating in 1959) cutting the ribbon.

Diamond Jubilee Beers

The Diamond Jubilee beers (brewed by the staff, named by the students, labels design by our resident artist, Dr. Enzo Mangano):

  • Sanderson Sunshine (Tom Bell, 3rd year)
  • Beernoulli (Euan Dodds, 5th year)

Burns Supper

The event was closed with a Burns Supper with our own piper, Dr. Bob Low, and with Dr. Jennifer Skilling delivering the Immortal Memory and Jack Ponton's rendition of Tam o' Shanter.

Ceilidh Dance

We danced the night away with a final ceilidh, which is already on youtube:
