Makerere University has set new dates for the 74th graduation ceremony, during which 13,000 students are expected to graduate at the institution’s main campus in Kampala.
Additionally, a letter released yesterday by Prof. Mukadasi Buyinza, the academic registrar, said the graduation ceremony will be held next year, between January 22 and January 26.
The University vice chancellor, Prof. Barnabas Nawangwe, revealed last month that the Senate would convene to consider the final graduation list. However, this was not possible, according to the university’s spokesperson, Ms. Ritah Namisango.

However, it had earlier been announced that the ceremony would be held from January 8 to January 12, 2024, but due to the expected NAM Summit, changes had to be made to avoid collisions.
While addressing the 4th Fulbright Prof. William Ssenteza Kajubi memorial lecture on November 7, Prof. Nawang noted that the institution had embraced artificial intelligence as the new normal to enable learning for all the students.
Ms. Namisango told our news reporters that “we call upon all those students who will be graduating to use this time to ensure that they have satisfied the academic requirements and financial obligations.”.
Remember the university held its graduation ceremony this year in February, but Prof. Nawangwe said the institution was slated to return to the old schedule in August next year.
