Academic Ceremony

Held every second year, the Academic Ceremony at Dalarna University highlights and recognises the academic achievements of researchers and teachers. Dating back to medieval times, the tradition is one upheld by most if not all universities and higher education institutions in Sweden. Merging tradition with contemporary overtones, Dalarna University’s academic ceremony is held alternate years in Falun and Borlänge.
