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.
Unauthorised photography is not allowed in the Royal Albert Hall.
(Official photographers receive special permission beforehand.)
Please switch off your mobile phone.
Today we host some 2,140 graduates and
around 4,500 guests at our two annual
Postgraduate Award Ceremonies held in
the splendour of the Royal Albert Hall.
As the bells of the Queen’s Tower ring to
mark this milestone in the academic life
of the College, your return to Imperial
creates a wonderful sense of occasion.
It inspires us, reminds us of the goals
we are striving to reach, and refreshes
our commitment to education and the
opportunities it provides.
After crossing the stage of the Royal
Albert Hall, graduands officially become
graduates, and join a community of over
157,000 Imperial alumni spread across the
globe. Many countries and regions have
their own associations and they will be
delighted to welcome you as the newest
members of the worldwide Imperial family.
All study at Imperial is demanding, but
a postgraduate degree in particular
requires sustained hard work, and the
clear demonstration of critical and creative
thinking. Thank you for choosing to bring
these talents to us at Imperial. I also want
to thank the family members and friends
present, who have provided invaluable
support over many years of study and
who I know will take great pride in the
achievements we celebrate today.
Warm regards,
Today is all about your hard efforts and
high achievements. Well done on your own
personal achievement. Whatever your next
destination, our best wishes go with you.
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 ceremonies recognise the
continuing high achievement of
Imperial’s postgraduate students.
Imperial currently attracts 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, as rated by the THE World
University Rankings, 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.
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, over
167,000 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.
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
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, a special graduation
ceremony was held in Singapore to
reflect the large number of students
coming to Imperial from Asia.
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 its intricate workings
incorporate the College crest and
motto. It weighs 7.1 kg.
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. Imperial College London graduates
wore University of London academic
dress until 2007. To reflect its status as
an independent university, new robes
were designed and today’s graduation
ceremonies have graduates wearing both
Imperial and University of London robes.
See page 5 for more details of the robes
being worn.

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

Equality benchmark success
Her Majesty The Queen’s New Year
Honours 2011 recognised both past and
present staff of Imperial. The following
staff were made Members of the Order
of the British Empire (MBE): Miss Linda
Jones, Faculty of Natural Sciences
Projects Manager and Operations
Manager for the Department of Physics;
Mr Lindsay Green, Administrative
Director at the Medical Research
Council’s Clinical Sciences Centre,
which is part of the Faculty of Medicine;
and Mr David Gentry, formerly Safety
Manager in the Faculty of Natural
Sciences, who left recently after 40
years’ service.
In February 2011, a global review of
materials science researchers with
the highest citation impact scores for
papers published since January 2000
ranked Imperial joint second in the
world with Massachusetts Institute of
Technology (MIT). Imperial had four
entries in the list of 100 – half the UK
entries. The review, undertaken by
Thompson Reuters, placed scientists
from Imperial’s Centre for Plastic
Electronics first, second, fourth and
sixth in the UK.
In January 2011, it was announced that,
for the second year running, Imperial
has gained a position in the top 100
employers for lesbian, gay and bisexual
people. The ranking, in Stonewall’s
2011 Workplace Equality Index, makes
the College one of only five universities
in the top 100. The index is published
annually to showcase the UK’s best
employers for LGB people, based on
the steps being taken to create a work
environment in which all staff feel
secure and valued.
Closing in on dark matter
New health app
In January 2011, Imperial physicists
working on the Compact Muon Solenoid
particle detector, part of the Large
Hadron Collider experiment, said they
had had a better than expected year at
CERN in Geneva. They have now carried
out the first full run of experiments to
smash protons together at almost the
speed of light to recreate conditions
similar to those of the Big Bang, when
the universe was formed, some 13.7
million years ago. The scientists are
optimistic that their rapid steps forward
will enable them to prove the existence
of supersymmetric particles, thought to
be natural candidates for dark matter,
in the next few years.
An iPhone app that empowers patients
to make more informed decisions
and better manage their health was
launched in November 2010. Wellnote
by Dr Darzi is the first smartphone
health portal that allows people to
maintain their own health records,
set medication and appointment
reminders, and anonymously rate
the healthcare services they use. The
application, developed by Professor
Lord Darzi and his team at the College
and Imperial College Healthcare
NHS Trust is free to download and is
available from the Apple Store.
Antarctic first
In December 2010, a team of explorers
and scientists completed the first ‘point
to same point’ crossing of Antarctica
in wheeled vehicles. Travelling in a
one-man biofuelled ice vehicle on
skis and two six-wheel-drive science
support vehicles, the Moon-Regan
Transantarctic Expedition set a record
time for crossing the continent and
returning to the starting point and
covered a total distance of 4,000
kilometres. The Winston Wong Centre
for Bio-Inspired Technology in Imperial’s
Institute of Biomedical Engineering was
the scientific partner in the expedition,
monitoring the environment, the
vehicles and the explorers’ own bodies
using wireless sensor technology.
Bringing invisibility a step closer
Imperial scientists have developed a
method of manipulating the speed of
light as it passes over an object, making
it theoretically possible to ‘cloak’ its
movement, so that it is not noticed
by an observer. A team of physicists
led by Professor Sir John Pendry has
already demonstrated that a new class
of materials called metamaterials can
be artificially engineered to distort light
or sound waves to create undetectable
blind spots that render an object
‘invisible’. Now Department of Physics
researchers, led by Professor Martin
McCall, have mathematically extended
that idea to manipulating light rays.
Some are speeded up and others
slowed down, resulting in brief periods
where an event, such as the movement
of an object, is not illuminated and
appears not to be happening.

Your genome in minutes
Research published in December 2010
by Imperial scientists has demonstrated
the development of technology that
they hope could ultimately sequence
a person’s genome in minutes at
a fraction of the cost of current
commercial techniques. Researchers
from the Department of Chemistry
have patented an early prototype
technology that can rapidly sequence
DNA propelled through tiny holes called
nanopores. This suggests that an entire
genome could eventually be sequenced
in a single lab procedure. At present,
a genome has to be broken down via
a highly complex and time-consuming
process. Fast, inexpensive and accurate
genome sequencing could allow rapid
DNA testing, as well as provide huge
benefits for police and security work.

Imperial College London Postgraduate Awards Ceremony
After graduating from Imperial in 1986 with an MEng in
Chemical Engineering and Chemical Technology, Mr Howard
joined the investment bank Salomon Brothers, where he
became Head of Interest Rate Trading. He moved to Tokai
Bank Europe in 1995 and in 1997 he joined Credit Suisse First
Boston (CSFB) as a Managing Director. In 1998 he became
Head of Proprietary Trading (Europe) in the Developed Market
Rates Cluster of Fixed Income Trading within CSFB, and then
Global Head of Proprietary Trading in 2001.
In 2002, Mr Howard left CSFB to launch his fixed-income
focused hedge fund Brevan Howard, which was one of
the most successful start-ups in the business. It made
£76 million in its first year of operation and is now one of
the most successful hedge funds in Europe. The firm employs
over 300 people and manages in excess of $32 billion of
assets for more than 500 institutional investors in over
30 countries.

Professor Sir Liam Donaldson
Mr Philip Blissett
Professor Robin Smith
Sir Liam Donaldson, Chair of the
National Patient Safety Agency, Chair
of the WHO Patient Safety Programme
and Chancellor of Newcastle University,
has pioneered many changes, both in
British public healthcare and in global
health, during his long career.
Mr Philip Blissett, formerly the Faculty
of Medicine’s Operating Officer, worked
for the College for 35 years and was
responsible for ensuring the highest
standards of planning and control
within the Faculty.
For over four decades Professor Robin
Smith has made huge contributions
to the teaching, research, and
administrative work of Imperial’s
Department of Physics.
Sir Liam began his career as a clinician,
earning his doctorate in medicine from
the University of Leicester. He then
served for a decade at the Northern and
Yorkshire Regional Health Authority,
rising to Regional General Manager
and Regional Director of Public Health
in 1994.
As Chief Medical Officer of the
Department of Health from 1998–2010,
Sir Liam led revolutionary changes in
the patient safety and quality agendas
in the National Health Service (NHS)
and was the author of a series of
groundbreaking reports which aimed
to transform many different areas
of healthcare. He produced the UK’s
first comprehensive health protection
strategy, proposed new legislation
to allow carefully regulated stem cell
research, addressed poor clinical
performance, and empowered selfmanagement of chronic diseases by
patients. He also created the concept
of clinical governance, a clinically led
approach to assuring high standards
of care, which is now an internationally
recognised approach in healthcare.
In 2002, Sir Liam published An
Organisation with a Memory, a
revolutionary analysis of patient safety
in the NHS which led to the creation
of the National Patient Safety Agency.
He brought this onto the global stage
in 2004 when he launched the World
Health Organisation (WHO) World
Alliance for Patient Safety. Later he
established the innovative WHO Safe
Surgery Checklist, estimated to have
saved thousands of lives in both the
developed and the developing world.
Sir Liam was knighted for his services
to public health in 2002 and, in 2009,
took on the role of Chancellor of
Newcastle University.
Mr Blissett joined St Mary’s Hospital
Medical School as Deputy Finance
Officer in 1974 and was appointed
Director of Finance there in 1980.
In this role he led activity to
accommodate a funding cut of
20 per cent and introduced the concept
of business units to deliver academic
services. In 1988 St Mary’s Hospital
Medical School merged with Imperial
and Mr Blissett took on the position of
Director of Finance and Administration
for the medical school, a role in
which he was responsible for staff
across Finance, Purchasing, HR and
Research Services.
In 1997, the Imperial College School of
Medicine (as the Faculty of Medicine
was then known) merged with three
other London medical schools, and
Mr Blissett was appointed Head of
Finance for the enlarged Faculty. In
this position he established a resource
allocation model which provided
greater transparency to the Faculty’s
finances and also undertook a process
review into research administration for
the College (RAMP). In 2008 Mr Blissett
was appointed the Faculty’s Operating
Officer, and oversaw the development
and implementation of the new
organisational structure before retiring
from the College in May 2010.
Mr Blissett has been Secretary and
Treasurer to St Mary’s Development
Trust and the Liver Research Trust for
the last 20 years. He is also a Trustee
of the Genesis Trust and the St Mary’s
Renal Trust. He has recently been
appointed one of the Trustees of the
Imperial College Trust, having held the
position of Treasurer for 10 years.
Wednesday 4 May 2011 • Royal Albert Hall
Professor Smith joined the Department
in 1964 on a BBC Engineering Research
Scholarship. In 1968, after gaining his
PhD, he was appointed to a lectureship
in the Applied Optics Group, rising to
become Professor of Physics in 1996.
He was the Department’s Senior Tutor
(1974–80), College Tutor (1980–84),
Head of the Applied Optics Group
(1987–92), Director of Undergraduate
Studies (1992–94), Director of Studies,
incorporating both undergraduate and
postgraduate teaching management
(1994–98), and Associate Head of
Department (1998–2005). He also
undertook the role of Acting Head of
Department when Sir Peter Knight
became Faculty Principal in 2005.
In addition, Professor Smith has
pursued a broad range of research
interests in the field of applied optics.
His expertise in these fields is widely
recognised and he has been extensively
employed as a consultant on optical
system design by industry in the UK
and in the USA.
Professor Smith has also shown an
immense dedication to teaching.
While working full-time at the College,
he taught an undergraduate course
almost every year and also many of
the components of the MSc course
in Applied Optics and Photonics. In
1991–92 he was voted best lecturer of
the year by the first year Physics class
and, in 1994, he won a College Award
for Excellence in Teaching. Keen to
broaden the experience gained by
Master’s students, he was responsible
for the introduction of an ERASMUS
exchange scheme with three
universities in Europe.

Since October 2005, when Professor
Smith formally retired, he has continued

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 enjoy that moment! Revel in it. Smile for the
cameras. High five your Principal. Salute your supervisor. Be as
emotional as you like. Just don’t embarrass the relatives, please.
Yes, today is your day to smile, swagger and glow in your
general magnificence upon receiving your postgraduate degree
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 postgraduate 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 over 157,000
Imperial alumni in 190 countries. There are 54 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.
zRelive your special day
Watch footage of your graduation online from 9 May
at www.imperial.ac.uk/blog/graduation and
www.youtube.com/user/imperialcollegevideo
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.
Finally, please keep in touch and share your news via the
Alumni Office, and look out for the next edition of the
Imperial magazine, which will be in the mail shortly.
I hope you and your family enjoy the Postgraduate
Awards Ceremony and you enjoy your first official alumni
event, the reception that follows this ceremony. Many
congratulations once again, and welcome to the
Imperial family.
