Summer Graduation will take place at O2 Guildhall Southampton from Wednesday 19 July to Friday 28 July 2023. On Thursday 20 July 2023, ceremonies will also take place at Winchester Cathedral, for Winchester School of Art graduands.
We are inviting colleagues from across the University to be part of the Graduation experience, to ensure that this is an occasion full of joy and memories that our students and their families will treasure.
Staff can fulfil a range of key roles from Graduand Usher to Esquire Bedell. More details on these roles as well as the ceremony schedule can be found on the Graduation Updates SharePoint site.
