MSc programme degrees are handed out at the graduation ceremony. Graduation ceremonies are scheduled six times a year. The ceremony lasts about 30 minutes per student and is held in the Faculty room at the Academiegebouw. You will be invited for the ceremony after all your grades have been registered. 

You can invite your family and friends. The ceremony comprises a 5-10 minute presentation by you about (one of) you research project(s) and a short questioning by the graduation committee, after which you will receive the official documents and sign the graduation book. The presentation must be understandable for the public, but can dive deeper into the subject on the last 2-3 slides, just for the understanding of the committee.
You can choose which project to present (major, minor, business, communication, education etc.) After the ceremony, you can sign your name in the 'zweetkamertje', as is the tradition for students finishing their studies at Leiden University. 

You are responsible for the compatibility of the equipment for their presentation. In the faculty room, a large screen with HDMI input is available. Alternatively, a presentation can be played from a USB stick directly plugged into the screen.
