INDIAN INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY KANPUR
ACADEMIC SECTION
Prof. R K Thareja
Dean, Academic Affairs
As you are aware, the Convocation 2006 of the Institute will be held in the Community Hall (Auditorium) on 05th June, 2006 Monday at 10:00 hours. Shri. Kapil Sibal, Honb’le Minister of Science and Technology and Earth Science, Govt. of India, has kindly consented to be the Chief Guest. A full scale REHEARSAL of the function will be held in Auditorium on Sunday the 04th June, 2006 at 15:00 hours. The Senators, who intend to participate in the Academic procession and all Department/Programme Heads, are requested to participate in the rehearsal. The degree recipients are requested to report in the Auditorium at 14:00 hours in order to confirm their participation in the rehearsal at 15:00 hours on June 04, 2006. The Senators, all Heads and the degree recipients are requested to be present for the rehearsal at 14:30 hours SHARP.
In case the graduating students do not participate in the rehearsal, I am afraid; it may not be possible for us to entertain requests for inclusion of their name for receiving the degree in person.
The Degree recipients may please ensure that they have obtained and submitted to this office a NO DUES Certificate from all Sections concerned. The Postgraduate students must also ensure that they have submitted the bound copy of the thesis to the Postgraduate Office. Unless a clearance to this effect is produced, it will not be possible to allow them to receive the degree in person.
The Convocation Gowns (along with the Invitations Cards for parents) will be made available free of charge. However, there is a nominal refundable deposit (Rs.500/- Caution Money) needed for the same for the graduating students.
