Four people distinguished in their field were also awarded an honorary degree at the University’s postgraduate graduation ceremonies.
They are Andy Rubin, Vivien A.F. Bickham MBE and Baroness Catherine Ashton , who received an Honorary Doctor of Laws, and Robert Rimmer, who received an Honorary Doctor of Science.
