Overview

On completion of your studies, your degree is conferred on you in person or in absentia at a Congregation, or graduation ceremony. Degree Congregations take place in the historic Senate House, where members of the University have graduated since the Eighteenth Century.

On the morning of graduation, graduands assemble in Â鶹ËÞÉáµçÊÓ¾çCollege for the all-important dress check and rehearsal, followed by a celebratory reception with their guests. Graduands are then led in procession to the Senate House from Â鶹ËÞÉáµçÊÓ¾çby our Praelector, David Goode.

 

Details

The programme with detailed timings will be sent out to the graduands prior to the graduation day, as this information is only available once the final number of students graduating across the University is known.
