Photography and merchandise

In addition to the photography studios on the day, each graduate will have their photo taken while crossing the stage. These photographs can be viewed after the ceremony.

Please note that to avoid obstructing the view of other guests or causing a distraction, members of the audience may take photographs from a seated position, but should not move about the venue or use flash apparatus.

All graduands and guests should be aware that graduation ceremonies and receptions are public events. Each ceremony will be broadcast live on the day, and digital recordings of the ceremony will be available to purchase. 

Audio/visual images of the ceremony and graduation reception are publicly available and will often be used in University webpages and publications.

By attending the ceremony, each graduand and guest gives their consent to potentially being filmed and/or photographed.

Attaining a degree after several years of study is a milestone in your life and the graduation ceremony is an occasion to remember. Purchase a USB of your ceremony, showing the magic moment when your degree is conferred.

Each USB will be supplied in a presentation case designed by the University. They are available to purchase on the Union Shop website for £14.99 plus postage and packaging. Once you have purchased your USB, you will receive an email from the Union Shop to confirm your ceremony date and time. USBs will then be despatched within 28 working days.
