Ceremony in Oman recognises Stirling graduates

Students from the University of Stirling’s accountancy, business and computing science courses delivered in partnership with Muscat College in Oman celebrated their graduation at a special ceremony this month.

The University of Stirling recently extended the successful partnership with Muscat College and introduced new undergraduate degrees in Human Resource Management and Marketing in September 2017. It will also introduce a Masters in Management in January 2018.

Degrees were conferred upon more than 30 graduates from courses delivered by the Faculty of Natural Sciences, and Stirling Management School.

Dean of Stirling Management School, Professor Sharon Bolton, travelled to Oman with Professor David Mackay, Associate Dean for Internationalisation at Stirling Management School, to celebrate the students’ achievements.
