University of York degree results

Almost all the students – about 80 to 90 per cent – have completed postgraduate masters and PhD courses, but the two events will also see some undergraduates being conferred with degrees at Central Hall.

Alongside the students, three honorary degrees will be awarded; to charity fundraiser Penelope Worsley, who lives in Heslington, pioneering physicist Professor Archie Howie and soprano Dame Emma Kirkby.

The two ceremonies today, and another tomorrow, come before the university’s main graduation ceremonies, which are held in July.

The spring ceremony is held to reduce the wait for postgraduates who finish their courses in September and PhD students who can complete their studies at any point in the year.

The list of degrees below starts with those awarded their degrees today and will continue in Saturday’s edition of The Press, alongside those presented with their degrees on Saturday.
