Thursday 16, 2017 was graduation day for University of Bedfordshire students

Over the past two days, almost 800 students from the Bedford Campus, including the Faculty of Education and Sport, and Faculty of Creative Arts, Technologies and Science, donned their caps and gowns to mark the finish of their education at the institute.

Also graduating this week were the Faculty of Health and Social Sciences, and University of Bedfordshire Business School.

To mark the occasion a civil ceremony was held yesterday, including a procession through the town, led by the mayor, Dave Hodgson.

Parents, teachers, and students alike all marched through the town to celebrate the success of this year's graduating classes.
