Class of 2025 celebrated at UCO graduation ceremony

University Campus Oldham celebrated the achievements of the Class of 2025 at a graduation ceremony held at a Greater Manchester venue, recognising students across construction, health, education, creative arts, criminology and teacher education programmes.

Graduates processed in academic dress to receive certificates and diplomas validated by partner universities including Sheffield Hallam University and the University of Huddersfield. Awards ranged from HNCs and HNDs through to foundation degrees, honours degrees and postgraduate certificates in education.

Student speakers reflected on the challenges and triumphs of balancing study with work and caring responsibilities, thanking tutors and support staff for personalised guidance. Employer representatives attended to celebrate students who completed placements with their organisations.

Photography from the ceremony will be available through the alumni portal. Graduates are encouraged to stay connected via UCO Alumni & Graduate Support for networking events, further study discounts and careers resources.
