Summary of Changes from Previous Version

The Honorary Awards Procedure has been updated following a review, and the main changes are:
• Broadening the honorary doctorate categories to enable the conferral of a doctorate in a discipline which is offered by the University;
• Outlining the nominations and approvals process for the various honorary awards;
• Contemporising the language and ensuring reflective of diversity and inclusivity;
• Providing greater clarity around criteria for the various honorary awards.
