This long-standing academic tradition marks the occasion when new doctors receive their doctoral insignia, including the hat or laurel wreath, in recognition of their achievements. The ceremony is known as promotion in Swedish, from the Latin verb promovere, meaning to advance or to promote. You can read more about the tradition on Lund University’s website and watch the full ceremony on YouTube.
