The Scottish actor, who played the Fifteenth incarnation of the Time Lord, will receive an honorary doctorate from the University of Glasgow later this year.
The university said the individuals selected have had "a profound and positive impact within their professions and wider society."
Prof Andy Schofield, the principal and vice chancellor at the university, said: "Honorary degrees give us the opportunity to recognise individuals whose achievements have had a profound and positive impact within their professions and wider society.
Gatwa starred as the Doctor for two seasons, alongside companions Millie Gibson and Varada Sethu, exiting the series in The Reality War, shortly after regenerating into returning star Billie Piper.
"There was never an opportunity to recoup the energy – it’s just go, go, go. I was doing seven-day weeks for eight months, and I found it hard being away from home and family. I’d already been shooting in Cardiff for five years (on and off) prior to that with Sex Education, and we started shooting Doctor Who while I was still doing Season four of Sex Ed."
