Welcome to the MARU Forum

This is the new website launched in 2010 for the UK and International MARU alumni and current academic student network.

Aims Of The Site

Our aim is to facilitate dialogue between the alumni with news, events, research and a discussion forum for project information, or any innovative topics you like!

It has been developed in response to alumni wishing to have a safe place to test ideas, contact peers, keep in touch with international alumni and be aware of recruitment or work opportunties.

Above all it will mean alumni having the ability to contribute directly to debate, for example on published policy, and share useful information with others.
