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.
