Students and colleagues are invited to submit nominations for the award of an honorary degree and Fellow of the University.
The deadline for receipt of nominations is Monday 16 September. Applications will then be sent to the appropriate Faculty for endorsement, before consideration by the Honorary Degree Advisory Group. The President and Vice-Chancellor will then present the recommendations to Senate and to Council for approval.
When making recommendations to Senate and Council, the Honorary Degree Advisory Group will take into account the following considerations:
Honorary degrees
- Recognition of an individual’s intellectual, creative and/or academic achievement.
- The recognition will be evidenced by international, or at the least national, distinction in the nominee’s field.
- Evidence of a direct link to the University of Southampton or to the City of Southampton.
