What to expect

The evening will include a celebratory exhibition and drinks reception, a three-course meal and the opportunity to hear from our Senior colleagues, as well as some of our inspiring alumni.

The future

As the University celebrates its centenary, we are excited to be building on our work in the region with the launch of a University of Reading South East Asia Hub.
