Each year, the University of Strathclyde awards a small number of honorary degrees to people who have made an outstanding contribution to academia and learning, to the university, to society (nationally and/or internationally) or to enterprise or business in their particular field. Honorary degrees are now conferred at the university's regular summer and autumn degree congregations, but were formerly awarded at the annual Commemoration Day ceremony, or at congregations arranged for occasions such as the opening of new buildings on campus.
The registers record each honorary graduate's name, signature, the title of degree conferred, and the date.

The 'Annual Dinner' was established in 2012 and was held in April each year. It replaced the annual Commemoration Day/University Day Congregation.

Fabric design sample for the University of Strathclyde Golden Jubilee graduation cap; 2-page digital file summarising the design and manufacturing process.
The Golden Jubilee cap was a gift from Glasgow School of Art to mark the fiftieth anniversary of the University of Strathclyde’s Royal Charter of 1964. It was designed and manufactured by Christopher Barton and Jonathan Douglas, two final-year students in the School’s Department of Fashion and Textiles, and has been used in place of the more traditional, black cap at all University of Strathclyde graduation ceremonies since 2014. While the fabric of the finished cap is dark blue and black in colour, the sample is rendered in cream and black. The fabric was created using the Jacquard mechanism and woven from Lyocell, a type of rayon consisting of cellulose fibre made from dissolving wood pulp. This newly developed, natural yarn was chosen by the designers in honour of Strathclyde’s reputation for technological innovation, as well as to fit with the University’s sustainability policy, which seeks to minimise any detrimental effect upon the environment arising from the University’s activities. The design incorporates several key elements of the University’s coat of Arms: a cinquefoil, the heraldic emblem of the ancient kingdom of Strathclyde after which the University was named; an antique crown, again representing the kingdom of Strathclyde; a wave packet, signifying that Strathclyde is a technological institution; and two falcons, which were added to the coat of Arms in 1996 to mark two hundred years since the death of John Anderson.

The honour of Fellowship of the University of Strathclyde was introduced in 1988. Different from an honorary doctoral degree, it was bestowed by the University Court in appreciation of notably long and distinguished service to the governance of the university. Recipients were presented for admission to Fellowship at the regular degree congregations of the university.
The register records each Fellow's name, signature, and date of admission to Fellowship.
