Convocation dates

Spring 2013

This page has been created to provide students with information dealing with their major categorized by degree, faculty and convocation ceremony. The "Major" is a student's area of specialization.

All ceremonies, with the exception of the Faculty of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, will take place on lower campus, under a tent west of the Roddick Gates.

Please make sure to dress properly for an outdoor event and keep in mind the weather conditions of that day.

This information will be useful to all graduating students. Below is a detailed list of all majors broken down by degree, faculty and convocation ceremony. This will allow students to identify the ceremony they must attend.
