Schedule: 19-23 January 2026
The January 2026 degree ceremonies will take place from Monday 19 January 2026 - Friday 23 January 2026. There will be two ceremonies per day (except for Friday 23 January) commencing at 11am and 3pm. All ceremonies will be held in the Butterworth Hall, Warwick Arts Centre, University of Warwick.
Students due to graduate in January 2026 (all students with degree level awards conferred between July - December 2025) will be invited to register their intentions in November 2025 and will have the option to attend their ceremony (certificate issued on the day of the ceremony), graduate in absentia (certificate posted or made available for collection following the ceremonies) or to defer their graduation to July 2026 or January 2027 (certificate will not be issued until the deferred ceremony date).
Please note, the schedule of ceremonies is based upon anticipated student attendance. Spaces at the ceremony are not guaranteed and are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. In the event that a ceremony reaches full capacity, graduands will be offered the opportunity to register for an alternative ceremony, usually on the same day but this cannot be guaranteed.
The table below shows the confirmed allocation of departments to the ceremonies. If you are reading for a joint degree you will graduate alongside the department which has lead responsibility for your course; please check carefully.
If you are unsure which ceremony is the correct one for your course, please contact the Awards and Ceremonies TeamLink opens in a new window.
