A huge congratulations to the聽graduates who have received their undergraduate, postgraduate and doctoral awards over the last two weeks.
Over the eight days of graduation, thousands of you walked across the stage, threw your hats and took many selfies!
Thank you to the hundreds of聽members of staff聽who support, organise and run graduation every year.
The Student Communications Team were busy capturing photos and videos live throughout graduation. Take a look at a selection of highlights below:

When you can’t decide between flowers or balloons… get both!
Our President and Vice-Chancellor (interim) Professor Mark Spearing said:
“Graduation is a time of celebration not only for our graduates and their family and friends, but for the whole of our University community. One of the highlights of the academic calendar, graduation gives us all a chance to reflect on the experiences of the past year and to admire the achievements of the 2019 graduating class. 聽It is a great personal privilege to have the opportunity to preside at graduation ceremonies and to hear first-hand from our graduates, almost without exception, how much they have appreciated their time with us. It is a wonderful reminder that what we do, is truly changing lives.鈥�
Graduates and their families from around the world met on Highfield Campus to celebrate this momentous occasion.

We聽wish the class of 2019 the very best of luck in the future!
