Alison McMillan

I'm involved in many different activities, some academic, some other professional, and some that are really only hobbies (music). Information about me and my activities is available through various websites, most of which are constrained by a particular purpose, and do not have the scope to capture everything. The purpose of this webpage is to curate all this information in one place.

Some of these websites are not controled by me, so if there are links that don't work, I would be very glad if you could let me know, so that I can update them. Thank you.

Academic

I work at Wrexham Glyndwr University, where I have a 0.4 FTE position as Professor in Aersopace Technology.

As part of this role, I have lead the CoMManDO Research Centre, and organise various conferences, seminars or other events. I supervise PhD students. From time to time I give workshops as part of the programme of the postgraduate research activity of the university.

There are a number of online tools that catalogue academic publications and other activities:

  • Orcid: 0000-0003-4191-096X lists my publications, brief career details, and my peer review activity
