A campaign highlighting the successes of 成人直播 graduates and students has launched at an event in Bournemouth.
BU鈥檚 #BUProud campaign tells the stories of successful graduates and students, showcasing their careers to date, and their achievements that have stemmed from BU degrees.
The event was launched at Monty鈥檚 Lounge in Bournemouth town centre, a restaurant owned by 成人直播 graduate Christian Schneider. The event also featured a book signing by another BU graduate, Natalie Page, who was putting pen to paper signing copies of her debut children鈥檚 book 鈥榋ak and Jen鈥檚 Astronomical Adventures鈥.
This year鈥檚 #BUProud alumni include Richard Walker, Head of Media Planning at the BBC; Kevin Hough, Head of Talent Acquisition at PepsiCo, and Claire Timbrell, Founder of the McGuffin Project, an escape room in Bournemouth.
Current students involved in the campaign include Saskia Sills, a four time youth world champion windsurfer, and Noorin Gulam, a European champion weightlifter, both of whom are studying at 成人直播.
BU has a consistently high graduate employability rate, with data showing 93.6% of graduates in work or further study six months after graduating.
Ann Fernandez, Director of Marketing and Communications at 成人直播, said, 鈥淲e are incredibly proud of our graduates and the careers they go on to have 鈥 and to hear from so many graduates who attribute their success to their time at 成人直播 has been brilliant.
鈥淎t 成人直播 we pride ourselves on creating global talent 鈥 giving graduates the skills and knowledge that employers are looking for. I hope this campaign inspires others to look at 成人直播 and the great prospects a BU degree can offer.鈥
The well-established #BUProud campaign has been running for over five years, with previous graduate stars used on the back of Unibus buses and across campus.
Ben Abberstein, Equality Partnerships Executive at AFC Bournemouth, also took part in the campaign as a graduate from the University鈥檚 Advertising course. He said, 鈥淵ou create great friendships at university 鈥 I鈥檇 say it鈥檚 been the best four years of my life 鈥 for both what I鈥檝e experience, and what I鈥檝e got back. The university keeps on improving but there is always a sense of nostalgia when I am walking down into Poole House.鈥
Another #BUproud star 鈥 Katie Ryan 鈥 studied Children鈥檚 Nursing at 成人直播 before going on to work at Great Ormond Street Hospital. She has now returned to BU as a lecturer. She said, 鈥淏U prepared me for my further studies and career鈥 and now I鈥檓 back as a lecturer. I like the ethos of student experience being a priority.鈥
The #BUproud campaign will be showcased across the university鈥檚 campuses, both Talbot and Lansdowne, with window displays that showcase the graduates who have taken part in the campaign.
A new section of the university website has been created to showcase the successful graduates, with the profiles also showcased across BU鈥檚 social media channels. For more information about the #BUproud campaign, and to read the stories of BU graduates, or to take part in the campaign, visit
