We are deeply saddened to share the news of the death of Robert Andrzejewski, a first year Physics student and a valued member of the department.

Rachel Edwards, Robert’s personal tutor, described him as a very likeable and gentle young man who played an active role in his tutorial group. He was developing his passion for physics and was exploring a newly found ambition of working in teaching.

He will be greatly missed.

We know this news will cause distress and upset and would like to express our sympathy to Robert’s family, friends and peers.
