Biological Sciences graduating students receive their degrees
210 Biological Sciences graduates received their degrees from the University of Southampton on 23rd July.
Graduation is the highlight of the academic year and a tribute to the hard work of our students during their time at Southampton. It is also a time for students to express their thanks to their families and to the staff who have supported them through their endeavours.
After receiving their hard-won degrees, the new graduates, parents, families and friends joined Biological Sciences academics and staff at a reception to celebrate their success and to recognise the achievements of prize winners.
In Biological Sciences, the teaching of our degrees is driven by our cutting-edge research. Our BSc programmes in Biochemistry, Biology, Biomedical Sciences, Pharmacology and Zoology cover the spectrum of the biological sciences, and are taught by academics who are involved in ground-breaking work in a range of areas from human fetal development to environmental change.
Professor Keith Fox, Head of Biological Sciences says: "It's great to celebrate the achievements of our students. They have worked hard, and the skills that they have learnt will give them excellent opportunities in the years ahead.”
Our 2012 Biological Sciences graduates join a Southampton alumni community that is 160,000 strong and spans the globe. We encourage all of our alumni to stay connected and to continue their involvement with the University.
