Structure of the Convocation Programme

The Convocation activities typically span several days and may include:

→Press briefing and media engagement

→Commissioning of projects

→Convocation Lecture delivered by a distinguished scholar or leader

→Award of prizes and academic distinctions

→Conferment of undergraduate and postgraduate degrees

→Award of honorary degrees (where applicable)

Each event is carefully organised to reflect the dignity and academic standards of the University.

The wearing of approved academic regalia symbolises scholarly achievement and academic tradition. Graduands are required to obtain official Convocation gowns and comply with dress regulations as communicated by the University.

A central highlight of the Convocation Ceremony is the Convocation Lecture. Delivered by an eminent scholar, industry leader, or public figure, the lecture addresses contemporary issues relevant to education, national development, research innovation, and global transformation.

The Convocation Lecture reflects the University’s intellectual engagement with society and its commitment to thought leadership.
