The art deco interior of the Forum - photo by Walter DirksThe Summer Degree ceremonies on 9 & 10 July will again take place in Bath city centre.

The venue for the event will be the Forum in the centre of Bath, a beautiful art deco theatre seating up to 1700 people, which is ideal for the ceremonies.

Student registration, photography, and academic gowning will all be under one roof, with gowning for all students in Carpenter House just around the corner. No doubt the event will achieve a high profile in the city.
