Economics website

by Seda Erdem

Dear Team, I am excited to share that we've made some updates to our website, including the addition of a news item and an up-to-date events calendar. If you have any news or upcoming events that are not currently listed, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me (or Carl) — we would love to include your contributions! Additionally, if applicable, could you consider including the Economics website link in your email signatures? This will help direct visitors to the most current information, as the University link is temporarily outdated and requires some IT adjustments. You can find the link here: www.econ.stir.ac.uk. Please feel free to send any suggestions for further website improvements my way. We truly value your input! Don’t forget to check out our latest news item! We are also actively sharing our updates on social media to enhance our outreach - we still need to decide one for the Division. Thank you for your collaboration! Best regards, Seda ________________________________ Scotland’s University for Sporting Excellence The University of Stirling is a charity registered in Scotland, number SC 011159
