Reminder: nominations for Honorary Degrees now open

Wednesday, 27 April 2016

Don’t forget that submissions are now open for nominations of Honorary Degrees. The Joint Standing Committee of the Council and Senate on Honorary Degrees is inviting members of the University, or those associated with it, to submit nominations for recipients of Honorary Degrees.

Nominations should take the form of a single sheet of A4 paper, and should articulate:

(a) the eminence of the individual being proposed in his or her chosen field;

(b) the particular relevance of that eminence to this University be this now, in the future, or both; and

(c) the timeliness of the proposal.

The above should also be accompanied by an outline CV or a Who’s Who entry of the nominee. Nominations should be sent, in confidence, to Louise Sharman, Academic and Governance Services, by Friday 20 May 2016.

Please contact Louise Sharman for further information.
