Class of 2025: Grad Class Send Off

Join us for a joyous celebration of your incredible academic achievements at a spectacular Graduate Send-Off Event in your honour!

Surrounded by your fellow science graduates, you’ll be joined by faculty, recent alumni, advisors, and staff from the Faculty of Science as we come together to celebrate your hard work, dedication, and the exciting milestone of your upcoming Convocation.

Don’t miss this unforgettable opportunity to connect, reflect, and revel in your success!

This year we are very happy to welcome back 2023 Class Valedictorian, Ahmed Abdelkader, as he addresses the Class of 2025 with his insightful journey of life beyond Waterloo.

We'll also have refreshments, a celebratory toast, science swag and plenty of opportunities for you to take timeless photos with your fellow graduates.

For those celebrating Ramadan, we offer a special welcome with hopes you'll join us.
