Vice Rector 1 of UMPWR Dr. Dwi Irawati, M.Si., in her speech explained that graduation is different from graduation although the process is similar. Judicium is the determination of graduation and assessment and determination of graduation status by the faculty or university that has gone through all academic processes.
“This means that you have gone through everything and then declared graduated with the status you obtained. Then move on to graduation, which is the determination and inauguration of the degree. So it is somewhat different in substance even though the process is similar,” she explained.
She hopes that this process is not only ceremonial but there is learning that can be obtained by both judges and UMPWR.
“After graduating from here you must be independent, take the lessons given by the lecturers, practice the knowledge and contribute to society. As well as being responsible for maintaining the good name of the alma mater and continuing to learn. Hopefully in the future you will be successful in real life,” she said.
