Graduation

Taught postgraduate degrees are conferred each year at the Higher Degree Congregations in January. Details are circulated to departments and students by the Ceremonies Office, and those students whose award recommendations are expected in time for the annual cross-Faculty deadline in November are sent an advance invitation.

In late November, once recommendations have been awarded, students are sent confirmation of award in the form of an official result statement. Degree certificates are presented to graduating students on the day of their ceremony, or sent on afterwards, if this has been requested by those not attending.

Students who have been awarded a postgraduate certificate are not invited to attend a degree ceremony, but are asked to confirm a secure address to which their award certificate should be sent.
