Degree DaysDegree Days
Christ Church is very pleased to facilitate the taking of degrees by members of the House. Degrees are not automatically conferred at the end of the course, but rather at a degree ceremony, for which bookings need to be made in advance.
The academic arrangements, including formal submission of degree candidates to the University at the Sheldonian Theatre is undertaken by the Censor of Degrees currently Dr Ronald Truman assisted by Professor Henry Mayr-Harting. All the organisational, administrative and hospitality arrangements are made through the Steward’s Assistant,

Undergraduate and postgraduate taught students who complete their course and receive their examination results after June 2013 will be assigned a date for their degree ceremony at the start of Michaelmas term of their final year. For example, if your course finishes in June, July or September 2013, you will be assigned a date in October 2012 for your degree ceremony in 2013 or 2014.
