Kingsway in Johannesburg is alive with gowned graduates again as the annual spring graduation ceremonies of the University of Johannesburg (UJ) take place in the Auditorium of the Auckland Park Kingsway Campus from September 25 to October 3.

This seven-day event, which brings colourful pageantry to the university and its surrounding areas, reflects the quality of UJ's students and its comprehensive educational programmes. Dedicated to the goal of seeing students graduate and go forth to be successful in their lives, the academia embraces each student's achievement during this period - as it represents honour both for them and for the university. "It clearly reflects the high international standards for which UJ and its students are striving and are being recognised for," says Prof Derek van der Merwe, Vice-Chancellor of the institution.
