On 27-28 November 2025, thirty students and alumni of the Scottish Heritage MLitt and History PhD programmes gathered in Aberdeen and online for a vibrant two-day celebration of scholarship, community, and Scottish culture. The event featured a winter graduation at King’s College, festive meals, visits to Aberdeen’s museums and Christmas Market, and a full day of research presentations hosted by the Programme Coordinator, Dr Bradford Bow. Highlights included a Madeira wine tasting paired with the final paper, a collaborative art collage created by participants, and a lively historical tour of Old Aberdeen led by programme founder Prof Marjory Harper. The Gathering concluded with warm farewells—an affirmation of the inclusive, supportive community that defines the MLitt and postgraduate history programmes. All current students and alumni are warmly invited to join future events.
