Augustine University Announces 7th Convocation Ceremony for October 30
Augustine University has officially announced the date for its 7th Convocation ceremony. The event will take place on Thursday, October 30, 2025, at 11:00 a.m. inside the university’s iconic Convocation Hall.
The ceremony is expected to be both colourful and reflective, celebrating academic excellence, student achievements, and the university’s commitment to shaping future leaders.
Key Highlights of the Convocation
According to the university management, the 7th Convocation will go beyond the formal distribution of certificates. The day’s events will include:
- Formal inauguration of the 2nd Pro-Chancellor
- Award of Diploma and First Degree certificates to graduating students
- Presentation of prizes to outstanding students for academic excellence
For many, convocation day is not just a ceremony but a reminder of the true purpose of a university – to nurture talent, reward dedication, and prepare graduates for life beyond the campus.
The Convocation Lecture
Adding depth to the celebration, this year’s convocation lecture will be delivered by Professor Steve Afolami. The theme is:
“AUI at 10: Fulfilling the Mandate of Providing Integral University Education for a Borderless World.”
The lecture will mark Augustine University’s 10th anniversary while addressing critical issues in education, particularly the importance of building a curriculum that transcends borders, cultures, and disciplines in today’s interconnected world.
Why This Convocation Matters
Convocations are more than just formalities – they are milestones. They symbolize years of hard work, resilience, and personal growth. For Augustine University, the 7th Convocation will also serve as a historic moment, blending ceremony with reflection and pointing toward the institution’s vision for the next decade.
As graduates walk across the stage to receive their certificates, the event will not only highlight individual success stories but also underscore the university’s contribution to national development and global scholarship.
