Departmental Receptions

Can my guests come to my Departmental Reception?

Guests with tickets to attend the Graduation ceremony will be able to join you at your departmental reception. Light refreshments (drinks and canapés) are included in the price of their ticket. Unfortunately, it is not possible to buy ‘reception only’ tickets for additional guests.

What happens at my Departmental Reception?

The receptions provide an opportunity for you to celebrate you degree with staff from the department and fellow students. Prizes are often handed out at receptions and some departments organise department photos. Each reception is 1.5 hours.

Information on Receptions

If you and your guests decide to visit the University's catering outlets, please note that refreshments are not included in the price of your Graduation Ceremony ticket.

Information on departmental receptions will become available in June 2012.
