New design of IIUM convocation attire

Just to share, the new design of IIUM convocation attire..


The new design of robe has taken into consideration the comfort of the graduands whereby the material selected for the new robe will be light and cooler as compared to the previous material for robe which is heavy, bulky and may cause discomfort if it worn for a long period of time.

The colour of the new graduands’ robe is turquoise which truly reflects the corporate colour of the University as compared to the previous robe which is green in colour.

The use of mortarboard for graduands is to standardize the dress code of convocation with other local public institutions of higher learning nationwide. Nevertheless, songkok will still be used for other official function of the University. The dress code for Muslim and non-Muslim female graduands require them to wear a cream coloured tudung under their mortaboard.
