Degree Congregation – University of Birmingham – 9th December 2009

I passed my BA Honours in War Studies during the summer and on December 9th we went up to the University for the degree congregation ceremony. It was a fitting way to end the six years of study.

First some pictures from around the main campus:

First I went to get my gown fitted. The official photographs were also taken at the same time but I won’t get them for some time yet – I’ll post them to the blog when they do arrive.

After a quick lunch we made our way over to the Great Hall for the ceremony:

Ceremony over, here’s four of the five of us who completed and passed the War Studies degree course:
