Our warm congratulations go to five students whose success in their Finals has seen them awarded several prizes by the University.

We are very pleased to share that E.P. Abraham Fellow and Tutor in Ecology, Roberto Salguero-Gómez, has recently been awarded Recognition of Distinction and conferred the title of Professor of Ecology by the University of Oxford.

Earlier this year Pembroke's recent sustainability progress, propelled by an enthusiastic group of students and staff, was recognised with a Gold Green Impact Award.

We are delighted to announce the return for 2025-26 of Pembroke’s Rokos Internship and Awards schemes. Generously funded by alumnus Chris Rokos, the programmes bring significant and unique opportunities for academic development among our undergraduate community.

Congratulations are in order for Pembroke alumni John Clarfelt (1971, Jurisprudence) and Joshua Macabuag (2003, Engineering Science) who were both awarded an OBE in the King’s Birthday Honours List 2025.

Pembroke's Tanaka Junior Research Fellow in Japanese Studies, Dr Chinami Oka, shares her thoughts below on the value of a transnational approach to Japan's history, allowing for a deeper understanding of a broader, interconnected transnational counterculture.

Having met at a disco in Brasenose Cellars in 1971, Paul and Phyl Carvosso were married in Pembroke Chapel on a snowy April day in 1975. We were delighted to have them back exactly 50 years later this April to celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary!

Pembroke alumnus Alex Joynes (2012, Theology) was recently named the winner of the People’s Play Award for his first full-length play Sides, staged at the People’s Theatre in Newcastle in May. 

The first of our 2025 Open Days in July saw hundreds of prospective applicants and their supporters welcomed to Pembroke for tours with students, informal meetings with tutors, and to explore all that Pembroke has to offer.
