?The School of Busi­ness and Com­put­er Sci­ence Ltd (SBCS) host­ed its an­nu­al grad­u­a­tion cel­e­bra­tion last Sat­ur­day.

Six hun­dred and thir­ty-eight stu­dents earned ei­ther a mas­ter's or bach­e­lor's de­gree from one of SBCS' five part­ner uni­ver­si­ties: Ed­in­burgh Busi­ness School-Heri­ot Watt Uni­ver­si­ty, Uni­ver­si­ty of Lon­don, Uni­ver­si­ty of Green­wich, Uni­ver­si­ty of Sun­der­land and Uni­ver­si­ty of Leices­ter.

The grad­u­ates were con­grat­u­lat­ed by rep­re­sen­ta­tives from each of the five uni­ver­si­ties, who came to wish them well and present the mes­sage that the grad­u­ates now join the elite ranks of the alum­ni of five world class in­sti­tu­tions of high­er learn­ing, SBCS said in a state­ment. The 2010 grad­u­at­ing class was al­so ho­n­oured with the pres­ence of Steve Cram, for­mer Olympian ath­lete, and chan­cel­lor of the Uni­ver­si­ty of Sun­der­land.
