Griffith's international ceremonies provide a special opportunity for international students to graduate in their home country and surrounded by family and friends.

The University holds at least one international ceremony a year (usually between August and October). Previous ceremonies have been held in Canada, Norway, Sweden, Singapore and China.

All international students who complete their programs and meet all graduation requirements are encouraged to attend a graduation ceremony being held in their home country - even if you already attended a ceremony in Australia. The international ceremony allows you to share your special moment with family and friends. It is also an opportunity to network with your fellow graduates.

Ceremonies are attended by the Chancellor and Vice Chancellor (or their nominated representatives).
