15 October 2016 | Celebrate 50 years of Chemical Physics

2016 represents the 50th anniversary of the first class to graduate with a degree in Chemical Physics from University of Edinburgh in 1966. The degree programme was founded through the efforts of Professor Tom Cottrell who came to the University as Chair of Chemistry from 1959.

This celebration will include highlights of current research and teaching initiatives, reminiscences from some Chemical Physics alumni, plus a forward look at the future of Chemical Physics both in Edinburgh and on the global stage.

They would also like you to send copies of photographs, past or present, for this collection.

Whether or not you can attend the celebration event, the School would very much like to hear from you. Please contact them by sending an email to chemphys-50@ed.ac.uk, or visit the Chem Phys 50th Anniversary Event Page.
