Employees at the University of Gothenburg have the opportunity to attend this year’s Conferment of Doctoral Degrees the Swedish Exhibition Centre, Mässans gata 8 on October 24. The conferment ceremony is an academic practice with old traditions and a part of a university’s identity.
The ceremony recurs every year and can be seen as a closing ceremony for those who completed a doctoral degree in the period. At the ceremony honorary doctorates are also conferred. The Vice Chancellor opens the ceremony with a welcome address and then allocated a number of awards. After that, the conferment takes place faculty by faculty and the ceremony includes music elements and student courtship.
We have a number of tickets to the ceremony, and it is the principle of “first come first served” that applies. Registration is done below, by 10 October or until the seats are fully booked.
