Reception

All guests are cordially invited to join the reception at the Campus

Center after the ceremony.

University Regalia

In its choice of academic regalia, Jacobs University has fused the

traditional with the modern. Sibilla Pavenstedt, a fashion designer

from Hamburg, was commissioned to design a special scarf to be

worn over a single-colored academic gown. The result is a refresh-

ing mixture of old and new, of tradition and innovation. Although

clearly identifiable in its basic form, this version of the academic

gown bears no standardized color or cut. In addition to the gown

and the scarf, the graduates will wear the traditional mortarboard

and faculty and PhD students will wear a special scarf over a silver

grey academic gown.

Procession

A procession of all graduating students will mark the beginning

of the graduation ceremony. The procession will be led by the

President and the Elected Deans. Undergraduate students will

march in according to their residential college affiliation.

Each college will be led by its respective College Masters as listed

below, accompanied by the College Office Managers, Resident

Associates and Honorary Members. Graduating Master students,

PhD students and Faculty will complete the procession.
