It was another day of celebration at Aberdeen University as more students took to the stage to receive their degrees.

After years of hard work, hundreds of graduands became graduates at the historic King’s College in Old Aberdeen.

Three ceremonies were held throughout day four of Aberdeen University’s summer 2024 graduations to mark the success of students from across three different schools.

Those from the School of Divinity, History, Philosophy and Art History celebrated today, as well as those from the education and engineering schools.

The sun shone as everyone gathered on campus for the day’s events with groups posing for photographs to remember the special day.

Family and friends filled the audience and cheered as each graduate made their way across the stage to get their diploma.

A week of graduations will come to an end tomorrow with the School of Medicine, Medical Sciences and Nutrition.

You can find picture galleries from the first three days here.

Our photographer Darrell Benns was at Aberdeen University to capture all the best moments from day four of the summer graduations.


Aberdeen University Graduations for Philosophy and Art History graduates.
Celebrating with the best of the best.
This is just the beginning for all of us.
Together we made it!
The best is yet to come.
Proud parents of a graduate!
Chase your dreams and never look back.
From students to graduates – a new chapter begins.
From a dream to reality.
The world is your oyster.
Caps off to you, graduate!
Making a difference one step at a time.
The graduation ceremony.

Take pride in how far you’ve come and have faith in how far you can go.
What feels like the end is often the beginning.
The tassel was worth the hassle.
An end of one chapter, but the start of another.
