About
Alyce Myers, International Officer for Durham University, will visit UW to talk with students and interested faculty/staff. Alyce will help demystify the differences in the US vs. UK higher education systems, the grad school application process, funding opportunities, and life in the UK. This will be a helpful opportunity regardless of which UK universities you may be interested in, or if you’re just getting started thinking about graduate study options!
Additionally, Alyce will cover Durham-specific programs and requirements for those interested. Durham University is a Russell Group research-intensive University with over 20,000 students with 150 bachelor’s and 130 postgraduate programs spread across four faculties (Business School, Arts and Humanities, Science, and Social Sciences and Health) and 27 departments .

- departmental postgraduate scholarships.
