Graduates from across a range of disciplines were rewarded for their endeavours.
The event included a special award presentation to Máirtín Mac Gabhann, who received the Ulster University's Convocation Postgraduate Student of the Year award. Martin helped to spearhead a campaign that led to a change in Northern Ireland’s organ donation laws. It has been named Dáithí’s Law after his young son who is currently waiting on a new heart.
