GRADUATION – NOVEMBER 2016

The graduation ceremony THE UNIVERSITY OF NEWCASTLE FANFARE

WITH DISTINCTION

The Fanfare is played at all ceremonial functions to herald the entry and departure of the Chancellor and other members of the Council. It was composed by Professor Robert Constable and first performed in 1994.

A bachelors or masters degree is conferred with distinction in cases where a candidate has achieved a Grade Point Average of 6.0 or above in the degree, out of a maximum of 7.0.

COMBINED DEGREE

THE UNIVERSITY MEDAL The award of a University Medal is an honour made only when there is a candidate of sufficient merit. To be considered for this award, a graduate must have a consistent record of exceptional academic achievement at all levels of their degree program, and qualify with the highest level of that degree.

HONOURS The award of Honours is given to students who complete an additional year of study after the completion of a bachelor’s degree.

Some bachelor’s degrees, such as Engineering or Education, have Honours embedded in the four year degree program. Honours generally consists of part coursework and part research requiring submission of a thesis. Honours can be awarded as Class I, Class II Division 1, Class II Division 2, or Class III.

A combined degree is one where a student studies for two separate degrees at the same time. It is possible for the student to complete the degree requirements for one degree ahead of the other. The student receives a testamur for each degree. Places for combined degrees are very competitive and offered to the highest performing students who apply.

A brief history of graduation The graduation ceremony is one of great antiquity. Its essential features have been the same since the 12th century when the first universities came into existence. Its necessary constituents are the Chancellor or his or her Deputy, the academic staff, the graduates, and the public.

The church had a monopoly of education, partly because it was the guardian of true doctrine, and partly because clerics were almost the only people who could read and write. As a result, the only person who could license a teacher was the bishop of a diocese until, under pressure of other business; he deputed the task to his chief secretary or chancellor.

The second group participating in the ceremony is the academic staff. In the 12th century they would all have been called “masters” or MAs. At that date they were paid no salaries, but hired their own lecture rooms and charged their own fees. But they also formed themselves into a guild or union, which is what universitas originally meant. In the 13th century they won a great victory when they persuaded the Pope to decree that chancellors were obliged to confer degrees on all those nominated by the masters. That is why the masters examine the candidates, why the Dean, acting as their spokesperson, reads out the names of those who are to receive degrees, and why the masters at this ceremony watch to see that the Chancellor or his Deputy does what is required of him.

Thirdly the graduates. The word “degree” comes from the Latin gradus, which means “a step”. When students are admitted to a bachelor degree they move one step up towards the mastership.

When they are admitted to a master’s degree they climb another step and come up on a level with the masters, who then receive them into their guild or universitas.

The academic gowns are derived from the everyday dress of the medieval clergy. In the Middle Ages they were not open in front, but closed like a clergyman’s cassock. It was in about 1500 that academics had the front opened up so as to display the fine clothes which they were wearing underneath. The hood was the normal medieval headwear, but it soon acquired a coloured lining. By the 17th century, if not earlier, these colours were strictly controlled so that anyone could identify from the colour of a graduate’s hood, the university and the degree.

The public is the fourth participant. It has an important function because the whole point of the proceedings is that they should be seen and heard by valid witnesses. The public hears the words of the Dean and the Chancellor and sees the new graduates dressed in their respective gowns or robes.

The foregoing is an adaptation of an address given at a graduation ceremony at the University of Birmingham by Emeritus Professor R H C Davis and reprinted in his book ‘From Alfred the Great to Stephen’ (Hambledon Press, 1991), pp. 307-309. It is reproduced with kind permission of the author’s widow.

GRADUATION – NOVEMBER 2016

For many people a university education is essential to achieving their dreams. For some students the challenges of acquiring education are significantly greater. Imagine studying with a debilitating medical condition while struggling financially, or being a full time carer and trying to decide between pursuing your education and supporting your loved ones. These are some of the many circumstances that some students face daily. A little support at this time would change their life and the life of their loved ones forever.

Without support, students like Daniel are often forced to make a life changing decision to abandon their education and their dreams.

At the University of Newcastle we believe that a university education should be available to everyone with the passion and the potential to succeed, whatever their circumstances. Over 27 per cent of UON students are from low socio-economic backgrounds, far higher than the national average of 16 per cent.

They need your support.

At age three Daniel was diagnosed with ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder), with the paediatrician telling his parents that he was the most extreme case he had seen in his 20-year career. While clearly defying his doctor’s expectations, Daniel has still had to overcome significant obstacles to pursue his dreams of a university education.

His only form of income is a disability pension that is not enough to pay for the text books, hardware and ongoing medical treatment he requires. He is also unable to drive due to his condition, so he must use a private bus company to make the 200km round journey from home to university, at a significant cost.

“I may have problems communicating verbally, but I can express myself clearly through writing.”

Daniel Thanks to the assistance of the Singapore Alumni Scholarship, Daniel is now enrolled in a Bachelor of Communications. He plans to undertake a career in professional writing. “The financial support this scholarship has provided is allowing me to successfully complete my university education, enabling me to pursue my career dreams and goals.” He is currently excelling with a distinction average, and has had many publications in local media and several awards recognising his many achievements. “As this scholarship will make a great difference in my life, I am looking forward to being in the position where I can give back and help others have the same opportunities I have been given.”

“By focusing on my strengths, I’m now in my second year of studying journalism at the University of Newcastle, well on my way to achieving something worthwhile in life.” Daniel You can support the futures of other promising students like Daniel.

Please contact us or donate to the Singapore Alumni Scholarships online. 100% of your donation will assist a promising student facing challenging circumstances. Whether your donation is small or large, together we can make a real difference to the future of disadvantaged students. A $4,000 Scholarship will literally change their life.

UON Singapore Message from the Pro Vice-Chancellor and Chief Executive Officer A very warm welcome, class of 2016!

Today marks a very special moment for you, and I am excited to be celebrating your achievements in making the transition from being a University of Newcastle (UON) student to a UON graduate.

We are immensely proud that our presence in Singapore has contributed to further strengthening of the Australia–Singapore relations, and achieving Singapore’s national agenda by producing quality graduates who are important stakeholders in the society. Through the support of our valuable partners, PSB Academy and BCA Academy, I know that you have gained both personal and educational excellence filled with discovery and fulfilment.

This year, we are among the Top 250 in the world, with 14 disciplines ranked Top 200 globally. As we achieved the Top 8th position among universities in Australia for research that is ‘well above world standard,’ we continue to play a pivotal role in leveraging the University’s excellence in research and innovation by developing mutually beneficial relationships and partnerships with industries, public and private institutions, and the wider community.

The differentiating hallmarks of a UON future-ready graduate are the right skills, knowledge, competencies, and attitude to meet and exceed expectations in an increasingly globalised world.

Thank you for your individual contribution as a UON student in Singapore. I hope you continue to nurture lifelong friendships and networks as you move on to your professional lives and be an inspiration to future students while building on the promise that you have gained through your education journey with UON. I urge you to take full advantage of the many opportunities that you have as an Alumnus and continue to stay connected with the UON family.

Wishing you the best in the many exciting years to come as you acquire new experiences, pursue your interests, and expand your potential. Congratulations, once again.
