Convocation

Class of 2025

Thank You for Joining us at Convocation!

Convocation is a time for graduates to gather with friends, family, faculty, and staff to celebrate well-earned accomplishments. Filled with symbolism and tradition, convocation is the capstone to your university journey.

On May 31, Concordia University of Edmonton (CUE) proudly celebrated convocation — a pinnacle moment for our graduates — and honoured two exceptional individuals whose professional and community achievements embody the university’s commitment to independent thinking, ethical leadership and the common good.
