Digital Diplomas and Diploma Supplement
The Faculty produces digitally signed diplomas and Diploma Supplements, approximately at the same time as the ordinary diplomas are produced. You will find the digital diploma as a digitally signed pdf in the document archive in Studentweb. You can also share it with others via the Diploma Registry. You log in to Studentweb or the Diploma Registry with ID-porten.
Conferral ceremony and ceremonial diploma
Previously, the diplomas were awarded at the conferral ceremonies, together with the ceremonial diploma in Latin. As of 2020, it is only the ceremonial diploma that will be awarded at the conferral ceremony.
The conferral ceremony takes place four times a year, and it is not mandatory to participate. Doctoral candidates are invited to the ceremony by e-mail approximately five weeks prior to the conferral. If you do not attend the ceremony, the ceremonial diploma will be sent to you by post.
