Page "Universities in the United Kingdom" Paragraph 33

In common with practice worldwide, graduates of universities in the United Kingdom often place not only their academic qualifications but also the names of the universities that awarded them after their name, the university typically being placed in parentheses, thus: John Smith, BSc ( Sheffield ).

Degrees are generally listed in ascending order of seniority followed by diplomas.

An exception may be made when a degree of a different university falls between two degrees of the same university: John Smith ; BSc PhD ( London ), MSci ( York ).
