The Rector’s
welcome
On behalf of
everyone at
Imperial, I am
delighted to
welcome our
graduands and
their guests
to Imperial for this day of celebration.
Our thanks go to you all for being
here so that we can loudly applaud
our students and share in the pride of
families and friends, whose support
contributes so much to their success.

Please switch off your mobile phone.
Graduation ceremonies are high points
in the College’s calendar, one of only a
handful of days during the year on which
the bells of the Queen’s Tower are rung,
and your presence on our campus creates
a fizzing sense of occasion. Today we will
host some 2,000 graduates and around
5,500 guests. And after crossing the stage
of the Royal Albert Hall, our graduands will
officially become graduates, entering into
a community of 160,000 Imperial alumni
spread across the globe.
This is the first Commemoration Day I will
attend as Imperial’s Rector and I know that
it will be a moving experience to see firsthand the enormity of what Imperial does
for individuals. I thank you for choosing
to bring your talents to Imperial. You,
I hope, have benefited hugely from your
time here and will continue to do so as
your careers progress.
Perhaps even more importantly the world
will benefit from your drive to apply your
knowledge that Imperial has instilled
and nurtured. I hope that you will be a
proud alumnus, flag-bearer, ambassador,
volunteer and supporter of the College
over the many years ahead of you.
This day is ultimately about your hard
efforts and high achievements, and it
is here to be enjoyed. Congratulations!
Whatever your next destination, our best
wishes shall go with you.
Warm regards,
Sir Keith O’Nions

Imperial
past and present
e
A new chapter in the
College’s history began with
the celebration of Imperial’s
100th birthday in 2007 and its new
status as an independent university.
Today’s graduation ceremonies
recognise the continuing high
achievement of Imperial’s students.
Imperial currently attracts over 14,000
students and 6,000 staff of the
highest international quality and has
a reputation worldwide for excellence
in teaching and research. The College
began its journey towards its current
position, as third in Europe and ninth in
the world overall (as rated by the Times
Higher Education world university
rankings 2010), a century ago with just
600 students and 12 professors.
The College was founded in July
1907 from the merger of three great
nineteenth century institutions — the
Royal College of Science, the City and
Guilds College and the Royal School of
Mines. Mergers in the late twentieth
century with St Mary’s Hospital Medical
School, the National Heart and Lung
Institute, the Charing Cross and
Westminster Medical School, the Royal
Postgraduate Medical School, Wye
College and the Kennedy Institute of
Rheumatology completed the formation
of the present Imperial College London.
Imperial’s founding charter created
an institution “…to give the highest
specialised instruction and to provide
the fullest equipment for the most
advanced training and research in
various branches of science especially
in its application to industry”. This
commitment to apply Imperial’s
research for the benefit of all has
been a constant theme throughout
the College’s history, and holds strong
today with current focuses including
interdisciplinary collaborations
to tackle climate change, and
mathematical modelling to predict
and control the spread of infectious
diseases, such as avian flu.
contribution to society during its
last century has been immense.
Inventions and innovations include the
discovery of penicillin, the development
of holography and the foundations of
fibre optics.
Famous names associated with Imperial
include T.H. Huxley, one of the greatest
scientists of the nineteenth century;
the author H.G. Wells; joint Nobel Prize
winners, Sir Alexander Fleming and Sir
Ernst Chain, discoverers of penicillin;
W.E. Dalby, the internationally
renowned railway engineer; W.H.
Perkin, inventor of mauveine, the first
aniline dye that led to the development
of the synthetic chemical industry;
Sir Almroth Wright, a pioneer of
vaccination; Eric Laithwaite, known
for his development of magnetically
levitated (maglev) high-speed trains;
and George Finch who, in 1922, was
able to climb higher than any previous
mountaineer due to his pioneering work
on oxygen and breathing apparatus.
Since the College’s creation, about
155,000 of the brightest students in
the world have been educated by such
authorities in their subjects. Today, the
College attracts students from over 150
countries across the globe, and has
a network of international links and
collaborations with many of the world’s
top universities.
Imperial College London Commemoration Day
Until 1955, Imperial’s graduation
ceremonies took place in the Great Hall
of the University of London, which was
then located in the Imperial Institute
at the heart of the South Kensington
Campus. Before each ceremony, a
formal College procession filed from
Prince Consort Road to the Great Hall
of the Institute. All that remains of the
Imperial Institute today is the Queen’s
Tower, saved from demolition in the
late 1960s.
The first College graduation ceremony
in the Royal Albert Hall was held on
26 October 1955. The day’s events
commemorated the 1945 centenary
of the Royal College of Science; the
oldest forerunner of Imperial. The
RCS centenary was attended by King
George VI and Queen Elizabeth and
its anniversary became known as
Commemoration Day in honour of
their visit.
Imperial undergraduates and
postgraduates were all presented at the
same ceremony in the Royal Albert Hall
on Commemoration Day each October
until 1996, when a new postgraduate
ceremony was added in May. In 2007,
as part of the College’s Centenary
celebrations, an additional graduation
ceremony was held in Singapore to
reflect the large number of students
coming to Imperial from Asia.
The College crest
The College coat of arms, which
incorporates the royal coat of arms,
was assigned by royal warrant dated
6 June 1908. The motto was devised
by Imperial’s Governing Body with
the name as well as the purpose of
the College in mind and perhaps
drawing ‘decus et tutamen’ from line
262 of Book V of Virgil’s Aeneid. The
translation appropriate to the spirit
of the age and the intentions of the
founders is “scientific knowledge, the
crowning glory and the safeguard of
the empire”.
With 68 Fellows of the Royal Society
among our current academic staff, and
distinguished past members of the
College including 14 Nobel laureates
and two Fields Medallists, Imperial’s

Imperial’s graduation ceremonies
Wednesday 20 October 2010 • Royal Albert Hall
The Imperial mace
Imperial’s graduation ceremonies see
the procession of the Imperial mace,
a generous gift from the Goldsmiths’
Company which marked Imperial
becoming a university in its own right
and the award of its new charter by
Her Majesty The Queen in 2007. First
used in 2009, the mace is made of
silver and gilt, and weighs 7.1 kg. It
was made by craftsmen from Padgham
and Putland of Kent and its intricate
workings incorporate the College crest
and motto.
The history of our academic dress
The robes our graduates wear today have
their origin in the everyday dress of the
Middle Ages which consisted of a tunic
and cloak and, to protect the head and
shoulders, a hood. The ancient universities
in Europe began as communities of scholars
and teachers in religious schools around
great cathedrals or monasteries. Students
there were clerics, who would have worn
clothing similar to that of everyone else at
the time. As fashions in the world changed,
the church and universities retained their
cloaks which became the main item of
academic dress.
For centuries, the shape of a university
robe’s sleeve denoted the degree attained
by its wearer. However, the advent of
many new universities, each requiring an
individual system of robes, brought changes
that continue being made to the present
day. All Imperial College London graduates
wore University of London academic dress
until 2007. Then, to reflect its status as
an independent university, new robes
were designed and today’s graduation
ceremonies see graduates wearing both
Imperial and University of London robes.
See page 7 for more details.

May every young scientist
remember... and not fail to keep his eyes open
for the possibility that an irritating failure of
his apparatus to give consistent results may
once or twice in a lifetime conceal an important
discovery.”

and Head of the Department of Physics at Imperial from 1953–63

New Singapore medical school
A new medical school training
undergraduate doctors in Singapore
and awarding joint Imperial College
London and Nanyang Technological
University (NTU) degrees is to be
established by 2013. The medical
school, which will be jointly managed
by NTU and Imperial College London,
will see Imperial developing and
delivering a course overseas for the first
time. There are already many members
of the Imperial family in Singapore –
the country is home to nearly 2,000
alumni and the College has developed
strong relationships there, working on
collaborative projects with universities
such as the National University of
Singapore and NTU, as well as with
research institutions overseen by
A*STAR, Singapore’s agency for science,
technology and research.
Fashion show at Imperial
More than 300 key figures from
industry, academia, fashion and
the media came to the College in
September to see Dr Manel Torres,
Spanish fashion designer and academic
visitor at Imperial, unveil his 2011
spring/summer collection. Celebrating
design-led technology developed at
Imperial, the show was a culmination
of 10 years’ work by Dr Torres, who,
with Professor Paul Luckham of the
Department of Chemical Engineering
and Chemical Technology, has created
the seamless spray-on material on
display. Fashion is just one of the
uses of this technology. Dr Torres
and Professor Luckham have set up
a spin-out company, Fabrican Ltd,
to explore other applications, such
as medicine patches and bandages,
hygiene wipes, air fresheners and
upholstery for furniture and cars.
Switching off has bigger impact
Switching off lights, turning the TV off
at the mains and using cooler washing
cycles could have a much bigger impact
on reducing carbon dioxide emissions
from power stations than previously
thought, according to research by
Imperial’s Grantham Institute for Climate
Change. A study in June showed that the
figure used by UK government advisors
to estimate the amount of carbon dioxide
saved by reducing people’s electricity
consumption is up to 60 per cent too low.

Antarctic research expedition
aims to break records
Imperial tops London unis in 2010
sports rankings
Imperial scientists are partnering with
the Moon Regan Transantarctic team for
a record-breaking 3,600-mile scientific
expedition across Antarctica, the driest
and coldest continent on Earth. The
research-led expedition, which uses
six-wheel drive mobile laboratories,
a biofuelled ice vehicle on skis, and
the latest in wireless mobile sensors,
will set out in November to gather
data in a number of research areas.
The team also aims to improve the
time for the fastest vehicle crossing
of Antarctica and be the first to test
biofuel while travelling across this
extreme environment. A network of
mobile wireless sensors, developed in
the Institute of Biomedical Engineering
and the Centre for Transport Studies at
Imperial, will be used to continuously
monitor the environment, the vehicles
and the explorers themselves during
the expedition.
Imperial has won pole position among
London universities and has climbed
five places from 22nd to 17th in the
British Universities and Colleges
Sport (BUCS) Championships’
national rankings since 2009. The
championships see university clubs
and individuals competing in a range
of sports, from hockey to clay pigeon
shooting. Imperial’s new position marks
a climb from 48th place 10 years ago.
New hi-tech cancer research
centre
A cutting-edge cancer centre dedicated
to robotic surgery, cancer imaging
and drug discovery was launched at
Imperial in June, putting London at
the forefront of cancer research. The
Imperial Cancer Research UK Centre
will see more than 200 clinicians
and scientists from Imperial College
Healthcare NHS Trust and Imperial
College London working together to
develop breakthrough treatments for
the disease. The Centre is the latest
link in a unique chain of centres being
launched around the country. Cancer
Research UK already supports research
at Imperial but is set to increase its
contribution to £8 million a year to help
develop the new Centre.
University research contributes
£45 billion a year to UK
The £3.5 billion a year currently
spent on publicly-funded research at
universities generates an additional
annual output of £45 billion in UK
companies, according to a study co-led
by Professor Jonathan Haskel of the
Business School. The data also suggest
that benefits of research spending
in higher education are greater than
those from other areas of governmentsupported research and development.

Bodywork may power cars of
the future
Parts of a car’s bodywork could one
day double up as its battery, according
to the scientists behind a €3.4 million
project announced in February.
Researchers from the Department of
Aeronautics are working with Volvo
Car Corporation and other partners to
develop a prototype material that can
store and discharge electrical energy
and is also strong and lightweight
enough for car parts. Ultimately, they
expect that this material could be used
in hybrid petrol/electric vehicles to
make them lighter and more energy
efficient.

Academic dress
The robes worn by graduates today have their origin in the everyday dress of
the Middle Ages. The ancient universities in Europe began as communities of
scholars and teachers associated with cathedrals or monasteries. As fashions
changed, the cloaks of that period were retained by the universities and
became the main item of academic dress.
Imperial College London
first degree robes
Imperial’s new academic dress was first worn
following the College’s independence in 2007. The
unifying theme of the robes is the use of the colour
purple, inspired by W.H. Perkin’s invention of the first
synthetic purple dye, mauveine, in 1856.

Honorary DEGREE
medal
K

Imperial College London honorary degrees are awarded to
people of conspicuous merit, who are outstanding in their field
or who have given exceptional service to the College.
Professor Sir Hugh Ford
The Rev’d Brooke Kingsmill-Lunn
Professor Sir Hugh Ford has been
widely recognised as the engineer who
revolutionised the production of plastics
and metals in Britain.
Brooke Kingsmill-Lunn’s association
with Imperial began in the early 1950s,
when he became one of the team of
bellringers charged with ringing the
bells in the Queen’s Tower on the
South Kensington Campus. Already an
experienced campanologist, Mr Lunn was
recommended to the College as someone
with the skills necessary to deal with the
unique challenges posed by the Queen’s
Tower, the chief among them being the
building’s subtle swaying motion, which
affects ringing.
His association with the College began
in 1934, when he began his degree in
mechanical engineering at City and Guilds
College, one of the constituent colleges
that later merged to form Imperial. A high
achiever from the outset, he was awarded
the Bramwell Medal for the best first class
Sir Hugh Ford
degree in his year. He later gained a PhD
for his work on heat transfer and fluid flow problems.
During the Second World War, Sir Hugh worked on the first commercial,
high-pressure polyethelyne plant, helping to establish what
subsequently became a major international industry. He later researched
the operation of cold strip mills, which reduce thick ingots of metal to
thin sheets, and developed techniques that were eventually adopted
worldwide.
In 1948, Sir Hugh returned to Imperial as Reader in Applied Mechanics.
Over the next three decades, a string of promotions followed, initially to
Professor of Applied Mechanics in 1951, then to Head of the Department
of Mechanical Engineering in 1965. He went on to the position of Pro
Rector, working alongside the Rector, Lord Flowers, until his retirement
in 1980.
Sir Hugh was President of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers from
1977–78 and of the Institute of Metals from 1985–87. He was a founder
Fellow of the Fellowship (now the Royal Academy) of Engineering and
held the position of Vice-President from 1981–83. He was elected a
Fellow of the Royal Society in 1967 and knighted in 1975.
Sir Hugh died on 28 May 2010 at the age of 96.

The Imperial College Medal is awarded for meritorious or
praiseworthy service to the College or for having otherwise
enhanced its reputation, mission and objectives.
Imperial College London Commemoration Day
Rev’d Brooke Kingsmill-Lunn
The College appointed Mr Lunn to take charge of bell ringing in the
Queen’s Tower in 1976 and since then he has continued to ensure
the bells are rung on the nine official dates each year, which mark
royal occasions and celebrate graduates’ achievements, such as this
Commemoration Day and the Postgraduate Awards Ceremony in May.
Alongside graduation ceremonies, Mr Lunn has also been present at
other significant milestones in the College’s life. He was there to ensure
the bells were rung to acknowledge the visit by Her Majesty The Queen
in 2007, marking the College’s Centenary and independence from the
University of London.
Managing the team of bellringers for over three decades, he has
encouraged campanologists amongst Imperial’s students and staff to
develop their skills. He has also worked with the College to review health
and safety requirements for ringing the bells in the Tower.
Alongside clerical duties in London, including serving as a Prebendary in
St Paul’s Cathedral, Mr Lunn has been involved in a number of bellringing
societies, occupying the position of Master of the Ancient Society of
College Youths from 1973–74 and serving as a member of the St Paul’s
Cathedral Guild of Ringers from 1957–2009.

Associateship
K
Associateships of Imperial College London are awarded to
longstanding members of staff, former students or other
persons, whether members of the university or not, who have
rendered exceptional service to the College.
Miss Sharine Brown
Sharine Brown, Head of Accommodation
Services, joined the College in 1988 as
senior housekeeper of one of Imperial’s
halls of residence in Prince’s Gardens,
Linstead Hall, after 15 years working in
the NHS.
Miss Sharine Brown
In 1996, Sharine was promoted to
Manager of Residences, which later
became Accommodation Services. Over
the years, she demonstrated tremendous
commitment to improving the quality of
the residential experience that Imperial
offers to students.
Working at Imperial was more than a job to Sharine – she threw herself
into life at the College. Living alongside students in Linstead Hall, she
had first-hand experience of their needs. She used this knowledge to
radically transform student welfare provision and to ensure that halls
of residence not only offered the highest standard of accommodation
facilities but also fostered a strong community spirit.
In seeking to extend the support offered to students, Sharine developed
the Private Housing Office. Launched in 1998, the service, which is
today part of the Student Accommodation Centre, provides advice to
students who are looking for accommodation in the private sector,
offering guidance on living in London to ease what can seem a daunting
prospect.
Throughout her career at Imperial, Sharine ensured that all staff in her
team felt valued and supported, and her door was always open to them.
Her dedication to duties outside her role was recognised in 2008, when
she was nominated for the Rector’s Equality Award for her efforts in
championing equality matters.
Sharine died on 26 April 2010 after a short illness.

Imperial College Commemoration Day
A common fallacy...
to which science is subjected
today is that it claims certainty,
infallibility and complete
emotional objectivity. It would be
more nearly true to say that it is
based upon wonder, adventure and
hope.”
— Sir Cyril Hinshelwood OM PRS,
Nobel laureate and Senior Research Fellow
at Imperial, 1964–67

A message for
new alumni
Congratulations! Today is special. You are
graduating from Imperial and this is a cause
for celebration.
Unless you are following Brian May’s (Physics 1968, PhD 2007)
example, chances are that you won’t be on the stage of the
Albert Hall again. So take your moment well. Revel in it. Smile
for the cameras. Give our Chairman a hug. High five your
Principal. Salute your classmates. Be as emotional as you like.
Just don’t embarrass the parents, please. And try not to lose
your way back to your seat because that gorgeous chemist
from halls sitting in the front row just winked at you.
Yes, Commemoration Day is your day to smile, swagger and glow in your general
magnificence upon graduating from Imperial.
Now comes the cool bit, thankfully, after the hot bit. Two hours in the hall in robes can
leave us all a bit warm. So you’ll need a drink at the reception afterwards, but that’s not
the cool bit I mean. Your days as a student are just the beginning of a lifelong relationship
with Imperial.
Now that you have completed your studies, you have become an alumnus of the College,
and on behalf of them all, I am delighted to welcome you into our community of 155,000
Imperial alumni in 190 countries. There are 48 international alumni associations around the
world but the Alumni Office, both at South Kensington Campus and online, serves as your
welcome sign back to the College.
As an Imperial alumnus, the College continues to look after you. You have access to the
Careers Advisory Service and Central Library, as well as a professional networking directory,
a dedicated alumni jobs board, and opportunities to meet other alumni at professional
networking events.
There are social events throughout the year in the
UK and overseas and you will hear about them all
as long as you register yourself as an alumnus at
www.imperial.ac.uk/alumni – membership is lifelong
and free, so please keep us updated with your latest
contact details.
Alumni are also proud supporters of the College. In
the last year alone, the generosity of alumni raised
almost £500,000 from small, individual annual
contributions, which go directly towards keeping the
College open to the brightest students and providing
a world class education. We hope that, in time, you’ll
be able to give something back. Together the smallest
gifts can make an enormous difference to lives.
Just as an example, if everyone graduating today
pledged to give £20 each for the next three years we
could provide a full scholarship to any of our courses.
