Graduation 2011: congratulations to students from the information and PR programmes

Graduation represents the formal conferment of undergraduate and postgraduate awards. This week LJMU students have been attending the graduation ceremonies at the spectacular Liverpool Anglican Cathedral to receive the ultimate reward for all their academic studies. This includes many students graduating from our information and PR related programmes based at Liverpool Business School, including students graduating from our BSc (Hons) Business Information Systems, BA (Hons) Business Management & Information, BA (Hons) Business & Public Relations, and MA/MSc Information & Library Management.
Members of the successful BA (Hons) Business Management & Information student cohort with lecturers Janet Farrow, Elaine Ansell and Chris Taylor.

Congratulations to all the students graduating from our programmes! We wish you the best of luck in your future endeavours!

BSc (Hons) Business Information Systems students celebrate their success!


Andrew Prescott.
Several students achieved the highest academic status by achieving First Class undergraduate degrees, or attaining Distinction at MA/MSc level. A special "well done" goes to these students. However, a further special mention goes to Andrew Prescott, who aside from graduating with a First Class BA (Hons) degree in Business Management & Information, received an award for Outstanding Placement Student from the Chartered Management Institute (CMI). Andrew's industrial placement was based at General Motors in Luton where he concentrated on Supply Chain Management for a year. Andrew was the only student who had his placement extended, spending two additional months at the Ellesmere Port branch where he spearheaded a project on line side delivery optimisation – finding ways to reduce waste and overall costs of production. Andrew has since secured a two year graduate scheme in the logistics department of Bentley. Well done, Andrew!
