Thousands of students from all 35 UiTM campuses nationwide have been waiting for this moment - to finally graduate!
However, the World Health Organisation (WHO) recently declared the Covid-19 as a pandemic on Wednesday (11 March). Due to the advisory issued by the Ministry of Health (MOH), Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) has decided to postpone its 92nd convocation ceremony that is scheduled for March 24 to April 26 at all their campuses nationwide.
According to BERNAMA, Vice-Chancellor Emeritus Professor Datuk Dr. Mohd Azraai Kassim said the decision was made after taking MOH’s Covid-19 report into consideration.
“Following the announcement of Covid-19 as a pandemic by the World Health Organisation, UiTM’s executive management at a special meeting today decided to postpone the convocation ceremony with immediate effect until a new date is announced.”
A number of people have supported UiTM’s decision to postpone the convocation as the ceremony will be attended by more than 3000 attendees including lecturers, families, and students per session.
