The graduates will hear an inspirational speech from fantasy author, games developer and entrepreneur Ian Livingstone.

Celebrations will then continue at the German Christmas Market, where students will enjoy a photograph on the golden carousel.

Principal Professor Simone Wonnacott said: “Our graduation ceremony honours the hard work and dedication of our undergraduate and postgraduate students who go on to have successful careers in diverse creative roles, from fashion designers, creative directors to freelance artists; whilst others set up their own businesses, producing work for private commissions or major brands.

“We wish our graduates all the best for their future careers.”
