Celebrating graduating students

This week the Department celebrates our graduating students, with a reception and graduation ceremony on 30th June, as well as other ceremonies throughout the week for joint honours students. We are delighted to congratulate all our graduates, celebrating their wonderful achievements through their years of study and wishing them the best for the next step. We look forward to keeping in touch and seeing whatever comes next for them!

Among those graduating are four PhDs, all of whom have contributed a huge amount to the Department in their time with us, through their excellent research and in teaching our first and second year students.
