Like last year, the University of Debrecen will hold its speech-day at the Stadium of Nagyerdő this year with a graduation ceremony, due to the high number of graduates and restrictions, on three consecutive Saturday afternoons.
The year-end ceremonial public senate meetings will be started at 4 pm on the 26th of June by the event of the Faculty of Law, Economics and Business, Informatics, and Agricultural and Food Sciences and Environmental Management.
The ceremony of the Faculty of Medicine, Humanities, Science and Technology, and Music will begin at 4 pm on the 3rd of July.
The series of ceremonies will end with the ceremony of the Faculty of Health, Dentistry, Child and Adult Education, Pharmacy, Engineering, and Public Health at 4 pm on the 10th of July.
The number of students graduating from 14 faculties of the University of Debrecen this academic year exceeds 4100. So, at these festive events, one Hungarian and one international student will receive their degrees – on behalf of their fellow students – from the representative of the rector’s management and the dean. The dean will also give their degrees to the awarded graduate students. (Students can get information from their own Faculty’s Department of Studies about how to get their degrees, for example, Humanity students by mail.)
