Finally completing a doctoral degree after devoting years of work to it is a very special occasion, and calls for a celebration.

Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) celebrates the achievements of new doctoral graduates with an awards ceremony and honors the achievements of all alumni who obtained a doctoral degree from FAU 15, 25, or 50 years ago.

All those who gained their doctoral degrees at FAU between April 1, 2022 and March 31, 2023 are invited to the joint graduation ceremony for all faculties on July 8, 2023 .

A dinner will be held for alumni on July 7, 2023 and on July 8, alumni can meet and chat with the new doctoral graduates at the graduation ceremony.
