Celebrate our students' achievements at winter graduation

20 Oct 2022

All members of General Assembly, Board of Governors, Senate, Emeritus Professors, Residential Life Officers and teaching and administrative staff are invited to attend and take part in the academic procession

Winter graduation

With ceremonies just under two months away, it's almost time to celebrate the achievements of our graduating students, which will take place in-person at Whitworth Hall, from Monday, 12 December to Friday, 16 December 2022.

Get involved

Graduation is a huge team effort and relies on a number of colleagues to come together so we can deliver a truly memorable experience. We encourage our University community to get involved.

All colleagues (academic and Professional Services) can join the academic procession during the ceremonies. 

Have a look at the full timetable to join the ceremony for the department or Faculty of your choice and then register to join the academic procession.
