The main event during the Academic Ceremony is the conferment of doctoral degrees on new and honorary doctors as well as the installation of new professors. In addition, we celebrate our new Associate Professors/Docents and the university's Pedagogical Prize is awarded to the teacher or teaching team who have made special efforts regarding students' learning.

The Academic Ceremony takes place at Borås Congress Centre. The ceremony and subsequent reception is open to the public. An invitation will be sent out to all university employees in mid-February with a link to RSVP.
