This is a time of celebration for all of us and I very much hope that you find it an enjoyable and memorable occasion. Each congregation is an opportunity to mark your achievements and acts as a bridge between the end of your studies and the beginning of the next stage of your lives, be it further study, a working career, or perhaps a chance to travel and learn more about the world around you. Across the degree ceremonies we have graduates who have engaged with the University in different ways. Many will have studied on campus full-time or part-time, while others from all over the world will have completed distance learning programmes and may be visiting the University for the first time. It is a particular pleasure for me to extend a warm welcome to all of you on behalf of everyone at Leicester. The University of Leicester is a leading international university which is committed to delivering excellence in research and teaching. A degree from this University is a major achievement which I am confident will benefit you throughout your careers. Leicester graduates now number over 135,000 worldwide and we are very proud of their many achievements. I wish you every success for the future now that you have joined this remarkable group and I hope that you will wish to keep in contact with the University of Leicester by attending events organised by the Alumni Association, by visiting us, and possibly by studying with us in the future.

It admitted its first students, nine women, in 1921 and remained a small society of about 100 students until 1945. In the period that followed, the College gained recognition from the University Grants Committee and every aspect of its life began to develop rapidly. On 1 May 1957, the College gained full degree-awarding powers and was granted its Royal Charter, becoming the University of Leicester. The University has now established itself as a prominent member of the international academic community, with worldwide links in teaching and research. It is internationally-renowned for the discovery of the remains of Richard III and the revolutionary technique of DNA genetic fingerprinting. It houses the biggest university-based space research group in Europe. Leicester also has specialist research centres in Bioengineering, Medical Humanities and Landscape and Climate, with others under development. The University is committed to offering an extensive programme of undergraduate and postgraduate degree courses which are firmly rooted in a strong research culture. The University continues to invest in new methods of teaching and learning, using the latest communications technology for the benefit of its students. During the past two decades the University has experienced a period of significant growth, particularly in respect of postgraduate students. There are around 21,000 students registered on accredited programmes, with almost half of these registered for postgraduate qualifications. The University is committed to widening participation and offers a diverse range of foundation degrees, continuing education courses and professional development programmes. Students from approximately 150 countries are currently studying at the University. The University works closely with business and industry and, particularly in the fields of Medicine, Biological Sciences, Physical Sciences and Engineering, has established links with company research and development programmes. It has an international reputation for research across a wide range of activities. Academic staff of the University act as advisers to the British and international governments and other organisations. The quality of the University’s graduates is one of its major assets and those graduating today demonstrate not only their personal achievements but also the University’s success and high academic standards. They will be well placed to make a contribution to society in the 21st century and to demonstrate the benefits of higher education to the wider community. The Right Honourable The Lord Grocott is a Leicester graduate and former academic, television presenter and Labour MP. As MP for the Wrekin he served as Deputy Shadow Leader of the House, adviser to the Leader of the Opposition and Foreign Affairs Spokesman. He was Parliamentary Private Secretary to Tony Blair from 1994 to 2001. He stepped down from the Commons in 2001 and was made a life peer, and from 2002 to 2008 he served as Government Chief Whip in the House of Lords. He was installed as the University’s Chancellor in January 2013. This is a memorable occasion, celebrating achievements of which you should be very proud. Your degree from Leicester will stand you in great stead going forward in your careers, whatever path you choose to follow. I greatly enjoyed my time at Leicester where, indeed, I met my wife, and it is a well-known fact that students make life-long friends whilst at university. Today is also a day for celebration with the families and friends who that have supported you during your studies. Good luck in the future, many congratulations and enjoy your day. The Right Honourable The Lord Grocott The Chancellor A message from the Students’ Union Congratulations to you on this very special day. Graduation is a wonderful way to celebrate the completion of your studies and reflect on your time at the University of Leicester. This will be a special day for us all, as I and the rest of the officer team will be graduating alongside you. It’s a day to celebrate with family, friends and loved ones, so really do make the most of it. The award you receive today will stay with you for the rest of your life, and it may well be the most valuable and beneficial investment you will ever make. Wherever you go, whatever you do, your award from the University of Leicester will be with you, so treasure it. I hope you will look back at your time at the University with fondness. On behalf of everyone at Leicester Students’ Union I want to wish you all the best for the future. Please stay in touch as we’re always happy to hear from you and find out how things are going. The very best of luck for whatever the future may hold. Rachel Holland Students’ Union President 2015-2016 6 UNIVERSITY OF LEICESTER DEGREE CONGREGATIONS 2016 7 A Guide to Academic Dress A Guide to the Ceremony The degree congregation brings together the University community for the purpose of conferring degrees on our qualified students. It is a time of celebration and pride, where, together, we mark graduands’ achievements as they come to the end of their journey with us. This January, students will be graduating from the University across four ceremonies held over two days. The Academic Procession Each ceremony commences with a procession, which comprises senior University officers, local dignitaries, members of Council and Senate and recipients of honorary degrees. The University’s Chancellor is the last to ascend to the stage, preceded by the University Mace Bearer, and once the platform party is in position, the National Anthem is sung and the Chancellor declares the degree congregation open. Conferment The main and most important part of the ceremony is the conferring of degrees. Students are invited across the stage one by one to be presented to the Chancellor, or the President and Vice- Chancellor, or a Pro-Vice-Chancellor. Awards The award given to each graduating student is based on the level of their study and subject of their course (see the guide to academic dress on page 9). Honorary Graduates The ceremonies may also incorporate the conferring of honorary degrees and awards. These are given to leading figures who have made an outstanding contribution in their field. Student Prizes In recognition of students’ academic and other achievements, a number of prizes are awarded. A full list of this year’s awards can be found on pages 36 and 37. Teaching Fellows In recognition of inspiring contributions to teaching and curriculum innovation and development, Distinguished Teaching Fellowships are also awarded at some degree ceremonies. Glossary The wearing of academic robes may be traced back to medieval Europe, when all students were in clerical orders. Today the robes worn by graduating students, academics and dignitaries form a distinctive element of the graduation regalia. Academic dress comprises a gown, a coloured hood and a hat, the shape and colour of all of which differ from institution to institution. Gowns for graduating students at Leicester are traditionally black, except those for recipients of a PhD, which are red. The colour and pattern of hood varies depending on the award received. Members of the academic procession wear the academic dress associated with the university from which they graduated, creating the rich variety of colours seen at the ceremony. Council: The Council is the University’s supreme governing body. It has 25 members, a permanent majority of whom are lay members, which means that they are neither staff nor students of the University. Council is chaired by a Pro-Chancellor. Senate: The Senate is the University’s principal academic board. Senate is concerned with directing and regulating the academic life of the University. Distinguished Honorary Fellow Doctor of Laws Doctor of Letters Doctor of Medicine Doctor of Music Doctor of Science Doctor of Philosophy Doctor of Clinical Psychology Doctor of Education Doctor of Engineering Master of Arts / Master of Philosophy Master of Business Administration Master of Education Master of Laws The Chancellor: The office of Chancellor is held by a distinguished individual from academia or public life. President and Vice-Chancellor: The President and Vice-Chancellor is the chief executive officer of the University. Provost and Pro-Vice-Chancellors: The Provost and Pro-Vice-Chancellors each have responsibility for major areas of policy; some are also Heads of College. They assist the President and Vice-Chancellor. Registrar and Chief Operating Officer: The Registrar and Chief Operating Officer is secretary to Council and head of the professional services and is responsible for the administration of the University. 8 UNIVERSITY OF LEICESTER Doctor of Social Science Master of Research Master of Science DEGREE CONGREGATIONS 2016 9 History of the Mace Music at Leicester Music at the University of Leicester is organised by the University Music Association (MA) which is affiliated to the University’s Students’ Union. Seven groups make up the Association: Band and Gig, Big Band; Chamber Choir; Chorus; Concert Band; Orchestra; Voices. Music at Leicester is a student-led activity. Currently the Concert Band and Big Band are conducted by students and some items are conducted by students in the programmes of Orchestra and Chorus. In all, more than 300 students are involved in music at the University. Each group gives one main concert per term but there are many other performances, including lunchtime Sound Bites at Embrace Arts, events at local residential homes, charity and student balls given by Big Band and a myriad of carol singing events leading up to Christmas. The University Gospel Choir, ‘Voices’, competes in University Gospel Choir of the Year. Thursday 21 January at 3pm and Friday 22 January at 11am Leicester University Chorus The Lion King: The Broadway Musical, Choral Medley arranged by Mark Brymer, (published by Hal Leonard). The University Chorus is a friendly, welcoming and fun-filled choir for all of those who love to sing; it requires no auditions. It covers a wide range of musical genres from classical to pop and songs from musicals. Concerts have included Les Miserables, Handel’s Messiah, Hairspray and Karl Jenkins’ Requiem. There are performance opportunities at the University, so any students who come to study here can continue their musical interests. There are currently music scholarships, financed by alumni of the University and by the Philharmonia Orchestra, which are awarded each year on a competitive basis, with tuition provided by visiting teachers. There is also a conducting class, where potential leaders of the various groups are identified and taught individually and in Philharmonia Master Classes. Programme of Music The following selection of music will be performed prior to the beginning of the degree congregation: Arr.

It performs a mixture of both sacred and secular choral works in various locations throughout Leicester and further afield, including performances in both Peterborough and Derby Cathedrals. Ceremonial maces derive from the maces originally used as weapons. From the middle of the 13th century, maces were carried by the Sergeants-at-Arms to protect the monarch, but with the demise of heavy armour, they began to take on a ceremonial role. Cities and organisations throughout the country were increasingly granted the right to have their own ceremonial maces. For many universities, the ceremonial mace is a feature of official processions, particularly on occasions such as degree ceremonies. At these events, the University Mace represents the internal authority of the officiating officer to confer degrees, the independence of the University from external authority, and the historic and ceremonial significance of graduation itself. Our Ceremonial Mace and Staves In November 1957, Gerald Benney, a leading London designer and one of the most outstanding and influential British Goldsmiths of the second half of the 20th century, was engaged to design and produce a University Ceremonial Mace and ten Usher’s Staves. The Mace and Staves were presented as part of a gift to the University from Leicester City by the Lord Mayor and City Council of Leicester on 1 May 1958. The robes for the Chancellor and two Pro-ViceChancellors were also presented to the University on this occasion. The Mace, which at the time was considered to be of modern design, is three feet, eight inches in length and has a rectangular head with rounded edges formed in silver. It was made in sections and then assembled with the head containing the City’s coat of arms on the reverse of a panel bearing the University arms. The Staves are seven feet long, having a rectangular and hollow head containing a fire-gilt book seen from both sides. The head is supported by a forked pillar on a black beech stem with a ferrule of silver. They were first used on the visit of HM The Queen on 9 May 1958 to open the new Students’ Union Building. Gerald Benney was awarded an Honorary MA by the University on 30 March 1965. DEGREE CONGREGATIONS 2016 11 Honorary Awards The University will confer honorary degrees on the following individuals in recognition of their outstanding achievements. Mohammad Shahid Raza (Doctor of Laws) Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha (Doctor of Laws) Muhammad Shahid Raza serves as Head Imam at Leicester Central Mosque and is a leading Muslim cleric and teacher. He is awarded the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws for services to the understanding of Islam in Leicester and in the UK as a whole. Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha is founder of King Power Group, one of Asia’s leading duty free retailers, and is the Chairman of Leicester City Football Club. He is awarded the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws for his impact on international business and his charitable activities. Muhammad Shahid Raza was born and educated in Eastern India, and he received his higher Islamic training there. In 1978, he was invited by the Islamic Centre in Leicester to serve as its Head Imam. In Leicester he has established a tradition of inter-faith dialogue by welcoming to the Centre many groups and individuals from different faith communities. He has also actively participated in the formation of the Federation of Mosques in the city, one of the first organisations in the UK to facilitate intra-faith dialogue within the Muslim community. From 1978 to 1984 he served as Head Teacher at the Islamic Centre evening school, and used this opportunity to impart moral and Islamic education to young people. He still serves in the capacity of Head Imam and leads the Friday prayer at the Leicester Central Mosque. In 1984, he moved to London to live, and joined The Muslim College, at the time a pioneering institution in Western Europe for the training of Imams and community leaders. Here he designed and conducted the first in-service training course for Imams. He is currently Executive Secretary and Registrar of The Muslim Law (Sharia) Council UK, and is engaged in a number of initiatives directed towards the wider community in Britain, Europe and North America through his association with organisations such as the InterFaith Network UK and the InterFaith Youth Trust, London. In the 2008 New Year’s Honours he was awarded the OBE for services to the Muslim community in Leicester. Michael Smith (Doctor of Laws) Michael Smith was founder and Chairman of Shoe Zone shoe retailers. He is awarded the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws for his impact on local and national business. Michael Smith was born locally and was educated at Uppingham School. He qualified as a Chartered Accountant before working as Finance Director of Drury Holdings from 1965 to 1972, and Francis Parker from 1972 to 1979. His grandfather was a footwear manufacturer and owned shares in BensonShoe, a shoe store company. In 1980, Michael Smith and his brother were able to buy out BensonShoe, which by then had 48 stores; they then went on to acquire other local shoe companies, such as the Oliver Group, Shoefayre and Stead and Simpson. The Shoe Zone name was adopted in 2000, and Michael Smith served as the company’s chairman until 2014. He also served as a NonExecutive Director of the Market Harborough Building Society and General Commissioner of Taxes (Leicester Division), including a period as Chairman. Shoe Zone currently owns 500 stores in the UK and the Republic of Ireland, sells 20 million pairs of shoes annually and has 4,000 employees. The Shoe Zone Trust was established under Michael Smith’s chairmanship in 2005, and to date has made charitable donations of over £1 million. 12 UNIVERSITY OF LEICESTER Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha was a pioneer in the establishment of the duty free business in Thailand and has become one of Thailand’s leading businessmen. He began his travel retail career in Hong Kong, returning to his native Thailand to open the country’s first downtown duty free shop as a joint venture with the Tourism Authority of Thailand, before expanding into Cambodia, Macau and China, as well as to Thailand’s international airports. Today, King Power Group operates the duty and tax free businesses at the country’s two airports and in city centres, and is the master commercial concessionaire at Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport. The group has complemented its highly successful core retail activities with other tourism and travel-related businesses, including theatre, restaurant and hotel management and in-flight duty free sales, and it employs over 10,000 people. It is also committed to raising funds and actively participating in projects for the less privileged in society through the King Power Foundation. In addition to his business interests, Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha has a passion for sport, especially polo and football. He established an outdoor polo field in Thailand, ranked as one of the top international facilities, and has served as the President of Thailand Polo Association (TPA). He acquired Leicester City Football Club in 2010.
