UBC Congregation 2002

Since 1916, UBC graduates have gathered to celebrate their success as students in Congregation ceremonies that bring together faculty, staff, alumni, families and friends.

From May 22-29 more than 5,000 graduates will cross the stage at UBC's Chan Centre for the Performing Arts to receive their degrees from UBC Chancellor William Sauder. In 22 separate ceremonies, degrees from 12 faculties as well as 12 honorary degrees will be conferred.

This year's UBC graduates, whose ideas and innovation are creating new approaches to local and global issues, will join the more than 200,000 alumni now living and working in countries around the world.
