Durham Convocation 2023
Convocation is the formal ceremony for the conferral of degrees, diplomas and certificates, and a time-honoured tradition that celebrates every student’s academic accomplishments. It is a commemoration of your life at Trent and an opportunity to share this significant milestone with your family and friends.

Please note that convocation ceremonies will be video recorded and photographed. Convocation ceremonies are public events that are recorded in various ways including webcast, video and photography. These images and recordings may be used for official purposes, such as promoting Trent University. If you have any questions, please contact joannesokolow@trentu.ca.
