A date for your diaries! We are delighted to be kicking off the new academic year in style with a very special lecture on 3rd October 2013.
Marek Reichman, Director of Design at Aston Martin and one of our prestigious Alumni will be talking about his career and designing for the “coolest car brand in the world” Marek is a great friend to the course and it is always a pleasure to welcome him back to Teesside.
