Graduation Ceremonies 2006 This year’s graduation ceremonies are divided into Postgraduate, at the Jesuits’ Church and the Aula Magna of the Old University in Valletta, and Undergraduate ceremonies at the Sir Temi Zammit Hall on campus.

During the four Postgraduate ceremonies parents and guests were seated in the Jesuits’ Church in Valletta. The Academic Body robed at the Foundation for Iinternationa.Studies and then processed down the steps of the Old University, around the block, which is decked with decorations and street lights. The Graduands, seated in the Aula Magna followed the ceremony by means of a big screen connection with the Church below. In the Church there was an audio connection with the Aula Magna. The ceremonies included the Oration by an Academic and a Speech by a Graduand, as well as some musical interludes provided by the University Vocal Ensemble and a small string orchestra.
