In light of the current situation of the novel coronavirus outbreak in Japan, HU has carefully considered the realization of the 2019 Commencement Ceremony (Graduation Ceremony) which is scheduled for March 23, 2020. In this notice, HU would like to inform that the venue has been changed from the Higashi-Hiroshima Sports Park Gymnasium Hall to the Satake Memorial Hall (Higashi-Hiroshima Campus). The total number of attendees as well as the duration of the ceremony have also been reduced as described below.

To prevent a further spread of the virus infection, only the selected number of the graduating students representing each School or Graduate School can attend the ceremony. We regret to inform you that the rest of the graduating students are not allowed to attend the ceremony. On the other hand, family members are kindly requested to refrain from visiting the campus. For those who cannot attend the ceremony, the event will be live-streamed on YouTube. Please note that the ceremony itself may be canceled if the outbreak situation worsens significantly in the future. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding on this matter.
