The process of awarding an Honorary Doctorate typically begins with a nomination, which can be submitted by faculty, alumni, or members of the institution’s governing bodies. Nominees are individuals who have made exceptional contributions to a specific field, society, academia, the arts, or humanitarian efforts. Once a nomination is received, it undergoes a thorough evaluation by an Honorary Degrees Committee, and the nominee is invited for a panel discussion which assesses the nominee’s achievements, impact, and alignment with the values and mission of the institution. After careful review, the committee forwards its recommendations to the academic council for final approval. Upon endorsement, the honorary degree is conferred during a formal convocation or special ceremony, where the recipient is recognized for their distinguished accomplishments and their contributions to knowledge, leadership, or service.
