The John Logie Baird memorial lecture was a biennial scientific lecture, delivered at the Royal College of Science and Technology and, from 1964, at the University of Strathclyde by a lecturer of distinction, on recent developments in radio, television or related fields of electrical engineering. The first lecture was delivered in 1959.
Details recorded are graduate's name, signature, degree and class of degree.
No graduation ceremonies were held during 2020 or in summer 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. A series of catch-up ceremonies, officially known as 'Celebrations of Graduation', was held from 18 March - 1 April 2022 so that students who had been obliged to graduate in absentia during the pandemic could attend a ceremony in person.
In 2024, the University introduced additional spring graduation ceremonies, held in March, specifically for the January intake student cohort. Most of these were international students and the spring ceremonies allowed them to celebrate their graduation together during the validity period of their existing visas.
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.
Details recorded are student's name, matriculation number, date of birth, address, previous qualifications, subjects of study, marks, attendances and final degree awarded.
