Graduation 2016

11 July 2016

More than 2,400 students will be graduating from Aberystwyth University this week as Graduation 2016 gets underway tomorrow, Tuesday 12 July.

Graduation week, which this year features eight ceremonies over four days from Tuesday 12 until Friday 15 July, is the highlight of the University calendar and is a celebration of the achievements of Aberystwyth students.

It is also an opportunity for graduates to celebrate and enjoy the occasion with family and friends.

Professor April McMahon, the University’s Vice-Chancellor, explains: “Graduation week is one of the real highlights of our University year which the Aber family of staff and graduates can enjoy together. As this year’s cohort of graduands look forward to celebrating their achievements with friends, families and supporters, it will also be our privilege to honour eight new Fellows, and present four Honorary Doctorates and Degrees.”
