SPIA Undergraduate Convocation – 1:30 p.m. Ceremony

May 10, 2024 @ 1:30 pm - 3:00 pm

2024 SPIA Undergraduate Convocation – Friday, May 10, 2024

The Convocation of the School of Public and International Affairs celebrates our undergraduate candidates for graduation, our alumni, faculty and staff, and the entire SPIA Community. SPIA students are recognized individually for their hard work and dedication toward earning their degree.  

2024 SPIA Convocation will be held Friday, May 10, 2024 at the UGA Performing Arts Center. The ceremonies will be live-streamed via the SPIA YouTube page for those friends and family who are not able to join us in person.

Given the size of our venue & our numbers of candidates, SPIA will host two in-person ceremonies at 11:00 am & 1:30 pm. Both ceremonies offer the same experience and candidates will attend only one. Selection into the ceremonies will be first-come, first-served via the SPIA Convocation RSVP Form.

We are pleased to welcome former Lieutenant Governor of Georgia Geoff Duncan to campus to deliver our Convocation Addresses.

Given potential changes to UGA guidelines for social gatherings and indoor events, circumstances around SPIA Convocation 2024 may be fluid.

Visit the UGA Commencement webpage for more information about the University’s ceremonies.
