6 November 2020Historic matriculation at UCPH accompanied by a Danish pop sensationMatriculation On 21 August, new students at UCPH could attend the first ever online matriculation held at UCPH due to COVID-19 restrictions. Usually, some 2,000 students gather on the square in front of the old university building in the city centre of Copenhagen to celebrate their matriculation to UCPH. The traditional welcome event for new students was therefore converted into an online event that was live-streamed on Facebook and UCPH’s website. In addition, it was probably not insignificant that the Danish pop diva Jada ended the show with a beautiful concert. The online matriculation symbolises our reality very well.
