Alumni who have completed postgraduate study at Durham are invited to join current Durham students and staff for a Q&A panel on campus. After the sessions, you are welcome to share your Durham experience with more prospective students by joining the Alumni Stand at the Open Day Fair.

Travel expenses will be covered if you were travelling to Durham from within the UK.
