The congregation ceremony will take place at the Ballroom in Holiday Villa, Johor Bahru and will follow the format of our traditional ceremonies.  We will, therefore, need to take some safety precautions to enable us to hold the ceremonies as safely as possible.   

These precautions include: 

• Graduates/guests will be required to wear a face mask during the ceremony.   
• Graduates will place their own hood before the ceremony (rather than having it placed over them during the ceremony) and will acknowledge the Presiding Officer with a nod of the head rather than a handshake 

Your graduate ticket and up to two guest tickets are free of charge. All tickets include:

• entry to the congregation ceremony
• ceremony programmes (one per graduate and one per two guests)

We are appointing a student orator from the class of 2022 to deliver a short speech on behalf of the graduating cohort. If you are interested in applying for this role, you can click the following link: Student Orator Application Form

Here's some guidance on your speech: 

• Your speech should last about five minutes and be between 500 and 700 words in length. 
• It needs to be positive and uplifting. Reflect on your time at NUMed Malaysia and talk about the graduation day and hopes for the future. 
• Don't be too specific to your course or subject area. You may be speaking on behalf of graduates from different academic schools, as well as your own. 
• You can mention how university life has benefitted you as a person, and students generally. 
• It is fine to acknowledge the support given by family and friends, but don't include personal thanks and don't mention anyone by name. 
• You can include anecdotes of your time at university but be sure the story is meaningful to the whole cohort and suitable for the audience, which will include senior members of the university as well as parents. 
• Remember, you'll give your speech at the end of the ceremony, so you can refer to graduation in the past tense. 
• When preparing your speech and practising your delivery, have a look at our videos of past ceremonies. 

The deadline for applications is Thursday, 30^th June 2022.  

Auditions will be held at NUMed or via Zoom from 4^th July – 8^th July. 

The Congregation ceremony is subject to Government guidance, including any changes to national restrictions relating to COVID-19.  You will also be required to follow any protocols and procedures required by the University. 

The safety of our graduates, guests and staff for this ceremony is of paramount importance.  Therefore, please be aware that attendees will be required to wear a face mask during the ceremony. 

Can I bring more than 2 guests?

The guest allowance is maximum of 2 per graduate to the ceremony. 

The University will be offering a Facebook live screening to accommodate for family and friends who are unable to attend the ceremony in person. 

Why do I need to wear a face mask during the ceremony?

In order to accommodate a normal capacity, we need to take extra precautions to compliment the ventilation in the hall.  Therefore, it is the University’s requirement that you will need to wear your face mask during the ceremony, and we hope you will support us in helping to keep everyone as safe as possible. 

Is there any food provided after the ceremony? 

Due to COVID-19 safety protocols, there will be NO refreshments served after the ceremony. 

Is there car parking available?

Yes, with a fee of RM5.00/per entry.

Can I share photos?

Yes. Share your celebration photos/videos with us by using #nclgrad & #numedgrad via social media including Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, TikTok and Facebook.
