nubiz Bulletin		Nov/Dec 2014

Welcome to the latest nubiz e-bulletin with all the latest news, developments and events from the Nottingham University Business School alumni community.

The Business School has a reputation as a leader in responsible and sustainable management education. We were one of the first signatories to the United Nations Principles for Responsible Management Education (UN PRME) in 2010 and we are a PRME Champion school. As such we produce a biennial Sharing Information on Progress report detailing developments, activities and achievements towards implementing the principles over the last two years. Download the 2014 report (PDF 13.7Mb).

Are you a golfer? We will be holding an informal golf day for staff and alumni on Monday 24th November. If you are interested, please contact Adrian Mateo for further details at adrian.mateo@nottingham.ac.uk
