Closing ceremonies and graduation events

At the end of each academic year, there is a closing ceremony for students completing their studies.

In Uppsala, the University invites you to a closing ceremony in the University Main Building. If you are a student at Campus Gotland you are welcome to join the joint closing ceremony for all students at the campus.

Individual programmes, departments or faculties may also arrange graduation events.

Graduation events for individual programmes

Individual programmes, departments or faculties may also arrange graduation events and activities for their students, for both Bachelor's level students and Master's level students. Contact your department to find out what applies to you.

Remember to apply for a degree

Please note that no degree certificates are awarded via these ceremonies, as they are not formal graduation ceremonies. You must actively apply for a degree to receive your certificate.
