Congratulations to all the successful students who joined us at Queen’s for our Postgraduate Taught Presentation event, hosted by Dr Anne Campbell on 24 January in the Great Hall. On behalf of the School of SSESW, our Director of Graduate Studies Dr Dirk Schubotz welcomed the students and their guests to the event, which marked their achievement in completing Certificates or Diplomas across all our postgraduate programmes.

Guest speaker Professor Ian Young (Chief Scientific Advisor, Department of Health, and Director of HSC Research and Development) congratulated the students and highlighted that their completion of courses such as these, which extend their knowledge base, not only supports their professional development but also enhances the experience of those in their care.

Our academic programme leads then presented parchments to the completing students while family and friends took photos of the moment. After the presentation, students enjoyed a catch up with fellow students and SSESW staff over a light lunch. We look forward to welcoming many of them back to Queen’s for the next stage of their study.
