Happy Journey! SUSU Graduates to Be Awarded Their Diplomas

On June 29th at 10:00 the ceremony of awarding diplomas to the 2019 SUSU graduates will be held on the university square. Around four thousand students of South Ural State University will be awarded diplomas of one of the leading Russian universities. Honoured guests are invited to participate in the ceremony.

Students, who have completed their studies in 2019, have become witnesses to important events:

  • South Ural State University’s joining Project 5-100 , a program for enhancing the competitiveness of Russian universities;
  • Expanding and transforming of the university’s educational divisions into 10 new schools and institutes;
  • Opening of laboratories, and creation of unique developments;
  • Presenting the brand platform;
  • Being listed in the TOP 1000 of the world’s best universities, and in other prestigious rankings.

The 2018-2019 academic year has become special for students. They not only were preparing for the state examinations and defence of final projects, by also took part in the big-scale celebration of the 75th Anniversary of South Ural State University.

As the tradition goes, the Rector in his speech on the opening of the ceremony will give a command on carrying out of the university’s flag and on the marching of the attendees of the Faculty of Military Education.

“The ceremony will be short, to the extent possible, and won’t last for hours, and at the same time it will be quite spectacular and will give the graduates and guests vivid impressions. Wearing the mantles and academic caps always makes the event even more ceremonious. We can’t do without the funny tradition of flipping the tassels over from right to left, or without the speech of response on behalf of the graduates and parents. The celebration will open with a theatrical prologue performed by Deep Vision dance theatre and Mannequin Theatre Studio,” shared Director of the SUSU Recreation Centre Svetlana Filipchuk.

The event programs will also include the performance by drummer girls, who will open the ceremonious part and will accompany the graduates during their march around the university square. The famous university choir Primavera will perform the university hymn. The bright and unforgettable festivities will wrap up with Our SUSU song performed by the Ladies Band.

Recently, a decision has been made to quit launching balloons into the sky as a climax of the celebrations, as according to ecologists, this tradition negatively affects the flora and fauna. But this will not affect the brightness of the ceremony in any way, since an optimal replacement has been found – cold fountains. This variant is no less spectacular and completely safe for the environment.

Everyone is welcome!

Event starts at: 10:00
