Augustine University
Augustine University Announces Convocation Schedule 2025

Augustine University has fixed Thursday, 30 October 2025, for its 7th Convocation Ceremony. The event includes certificate awards, prize presentations, and the inauguration of the new Pro-Chancellor. All invited guests and the public are encouraged to attend.

The management of Augustine University, Ilara-Epe, has announced the date for its 7th Convocation. The ceremony, which comes up on Thursday, 30 October 2025 at 11:00 a.m., will take place inside the grand Convocation Hall. It is expected to be both colourful and reflective, a day that blends formality with joy.

Key Highlights of the Convocation

The programme is not only about handing out certificates, it carries with it a deeper weight. On the day, the following will take place:

  • Formal inauguration of the 2nd Pro-Chancellor
  • Awards of Diploma and First Degree certificates to graduating students
  • Presentation of prizes to outstanding students who made their mark

Moments like these remind the community of the reason universities exist, to train, to reward effort, and to send young people forward into the world.

The Convocation Lecture

Adding colour to the occasion will be the convocation lecture. This year’s address is set to be delivered by Professor Steve Afolami on the theme, “AUI at 10: Fulfilling the Mandate of Providing Integral University Education for a Borderless World.”

The lecture, apart from marking a decade of Augustine University, will spark conversations about education that cuts across borders, cultures, and disciplines.

Final Word

Convocation days are not just about gowns and certificates, they are about memories, about handshakes that seal years of effort. Augustine University’s 7th outing promises all of that and more, with a blend of ceremony, reflection, and a little bit of history in the making.
