Graduation 2026 is well underway, with the first week already over and filled with celebration.
This year sees 23 ceremonies taking place over 8 days from 21-30 July, where we celebrate 7,200 students and welcome over 22,000 guests.
We are also recognising nine inspirational individuals, who will be awarded honorary doctorates, with achievements across comedy, entertainment, maritime, business, music, humanitarian work, science, technology and sport, embodying the University's values of excellence, innovation and community impact.
