The 51st convocation ceremony of Tribhuvan University is scheduled to be held at the Dasharath Stadium in Kathmandu on Poush 10. The Office of the Controller of Examinations has stated that 16,338 students will participate in the ceremony. Students who have applied and paid the fee will be invited to participate in the ceremony, said Controller of Examinations Laxman Poudel.
The office has stated that 89,191 students who will receive academic degrees from bachelor's to doctorate will be convocations from 2081 Asar 1 to mid-2082 Jestha. Only 18.31 percent of the students who passed have shown interest in participating in the ceremony.
The office has stated that gowns and scarves will be distributed to the participating students from Poush 1. Information Officer Kabiraj Poudel informed that gowns, scarves, caps and other materials will be distributed until Poush 8.
Students who have applied online to participate in the convocation ceremony have been urged to collect their gowns from the office in Balkhu. Tribhuvan University has been distributing the gowns to the students for the convocation ceremony by taking a deposit.
Since the gowns will not be distributed from the Dasharath Stadium, the venue of the ceremony, the office has stated that they will be distributed even on public holidays until Poush 8.
Tribhuvan University has been criticized for causing chaos in the city, including vehicles, by congregating thousands of students at once in the main area of Kathmandu. Following the criticism, the Tribhuvan University Executive Council also held discussions on holding convocation ceremonies at separate places and times for each faculty.
Tribhuvan University has nine faculties, including Medical, Engineering, Science and Technology, Forestry, Agriculture and Animal Science, Management, Humanities and Social Sciences, and Law, offering undergraduate, postgraduate, MPhil, and PhD programs. After Deepak Aryal was appointed as the Vice-Chancellor, Tribhuvan University had reached the conclusion of holding the convocation ceremonies on the same day and at the same place as before.
