Honorary Degrees Awarded by NUI and Its Member Institutions

Prior to 1997, all NUI Honorary Doctorate Degrees were awarded by NUI at a central location . Subsequent to the 1997 Universities Act *, honorary conferring ceremonies have been held in NUI and in the four Constituent Universities. This Act re-constituted the then Constituent Colleges as Constituent Universities, and in addition, the then Recognised College, St. Patricks, Maynooth as a Constituent University.
