Listen: University of Aberdeen offers opportunity to unemployed oil and gas workers

The University of Aberdeen is offering a discount on postgraduate education to unemployed oil and gas workers.

The offer of a 20 percent discount for full-time or part-time study is open to people who live in Aberdeen City or Shire who have been made redundant or left unemployed as a result of the downturn in the sector.

We spoke to the university's Executive Director John Scrimgeour about the initiative.
