Vice-Chancellor Tora Holmberg thanked the students for their time at Umeå University and delivered an inspiring speech to the new graduates. The ceremony was followed by mingle and light refreshments.

This year's student speaker was Linde Wits from the Netherlands. She earned a Master's Degree in Psychology with a specialization in Health Psychology. She spoke about her strong desire to connect to people’s well-being, which she found again at Umeå University, in addition to enjoying the small feel of a big green campus and vibrant sports culture.

The alumni speaker was Emma Fällman, who has bachelor’s degree in law from Umeå University and currently works as an attorney at her own law firm. She primarily represents women who have experienced violence and sexual abuse. During her studies, she had the invaluable opportunity to study abroad in both Copenhagen and Cambridge, experiences that have greatly enriched her professional career.
