Graduation ceremonies
Graduations should be celebrated properly! Anyone wishing to do so has the opportunity to take part in a special ceremony in the university’s grand assembly hall, the Große Universitätsaula.
General information
In order to avoid confusion, we would like to state that the completion of a degree programme is certified by the respective Examinations Office with the legally binding document “Notification of Award of the Academic Degree”. Participation in an official graduation ceremony at the University Salzburg is voluntary. Registration for the ceremony takes place exclusively via the online registration form (see link below).
Please note! Registration for the graduation ceremony is only possible with a valid notification of award! Without a valid notification of award, you will be deregistered from the ceremony and your participation fee will be refunded.
