Spring does not just bring warmer weather and blossoming flowers, it also ushers in another graduation ceremony on the Bloemfontein Campus.

On Thursday, 18 September 2014, the university will award diplomas and certificates up to and including honours degrees to our graduates from all seven of our faculties.

Firstly, at 09:30, the Faculties of Economic and Management Sciences, Health Sciences and Natural and Agricultural Sciences will confer degrees during the morning ceremony.

During the afternoon ceremony at 14:30, the Faculties of the Humanities, Education (CE, NPDE and ACE excluded), Law and Theology will confer their degrees.

A total of 727 degrees will be conferred at this year’s Spring Graduation:

Well-known satirist Pieter-Dirk Uys will be the guest speaker at both ceremonies on the day, certain to both entertain and motivate the graduates and audience alike.
