D. REHEARSAL (COMPULSORY)

There will be a rehearsal of the convocation process at 2.30 pm on June 19, 2025 (Thursday) (i.e. on the afternoon of the day before the Convocation). So, the respective graduands are requested to occupy their designated seats in Bhubaneswar Behera Auditorium (BBA). Since the Convocation is an august event, the event must move without flaw. Only a complete rehearsal shall ensure compliance by all concerned. Hence, it has been decided not to permit a Graduand to participate in the Convocation if he/she misses the rehearsal.

E. YOUR NAME

Please note that your certificate will bear your name as listed in our website www.nitrkl.ac.in/convocation.

Please let us know if (and only if) there is a spelling mistake before June 06, 2025 (Friday). You can intimate through email at jayaprakashs[at]nitrkl.ac.in or acad.res[at]nitrkl.ac.in.

We shall have no opportunity for correcting it in future.

F. ACCOMPANYING PERSON

Persons accompanying the degree recipients are welcome to witness the Convocation (not the rehearsal). Degree recipients are requested to try to limit the number of accompanying persons to a maximum of one per degree recipient due to the paucity of space. I regret that children are not allowed into the Convocation Hall. The Convocation can also be viewed Live in youtube.

G. ACCOMMODATION

Since we have limited rooms in our Guest Houses and both the Guest Houses will be occupied with our Distinguished guests, we will not be in a position to provide accommodation in our Guest Houses. You may contact local Hotels directly for accommodation.

You are requested to register online (link available in the Convocation portal) in the Institute website latest by June 15, 2025 (Sunday) so that we will be able to make necessary arrangements for you.

Expecting your presence in the XXII Convocation.
