Celebrating together
in Kuala Lumpur.
Completing a degree takes work, often alongside a career and commitments at home. Graduation gives our community a moment to pause and celebrate that achievement in person.
The formal ceremony takes place on Thursday, 26 November. The evening before, UBIS faculty, alumni and current students can catch up at the Global Gathering.
All times on this page are Malaysia Time (MYT, UTC+8).
