Graduating students on the steps of the Queen's Tower
The first truly sunny day of the year after an unusually cold spring conspired to make Postgraduate Graduation Ceremonies 2013 particularly memorable.
We caught up with graduands around campus and asked them how they were feeling on the big day and about their plans for the future.
“It’s a fantastic experience to be here and I think it’s one that I will cherish for a really long time. I’ve got a job back home in Nigeria working in the chemical industry as a strategy analyst – it’s a good blend between business and technical expertise.”
EGWONO KELVIN OKPOKO, PHD CHEMICAL ENGINEERING
“To have graduation at the Royal Albert Hall is just amazing, it’s so beautiful. At the moment I’m moving towards fashion. I’m taking a course at Condé Nast College, part of the large publishing group, and I’m planning to complete a Vogue diploma there.”
ANFISA BULGAKOVA, MSC STRATEGIC MARKETING
“I’m working for a bank in London at the moment but as for future plans I’m not sure, we’ll have to see. My short-term plan is to become a British citizen; I’m actually taking the test tomorrow!”
DOMENICO CORAPI, PHD COMPUTING
