What is The Friendship Story @UEA?

A university is far more than its buildings; it's a place where lifelong friendships are made. Each episode tells the story of a friendship formed at the University of East Anglia (UEA), from the uplifting to the unexpected, in their own words. These stories of staff and students create intimate portraits of our UEA family and the joy we give to each other. Music: Robert Schumann - Scenes from Childhood, Op. 15 - I.
