Graduation
On the day
Your graduation ceremony should be a great day for you and your fellow graduates to celebrate your achievements and success with your family and friends.
Each graduation ceremony commences and concludes with the official fanfare of the university. Throughout the ceremony formal speeches will be made by a number of presenters and includes the presentation of awards for graduates. We will also enjoy a short musical interlude showcasing the talented musicians from our university. Graduates will sit together in their degree cohort and Graduation staff will guide graduates throughout the ceremony.
Ceremonies are expected to be 1.5 to 2 hours in duration.
Please select your graduation campus location for more information about your package, tickets, arrival and registration, order of proceedings and photography and memorabilia.
