Every year, on the penultimate Friday of March, Ghent University celebrates its Dies Natalis or birthday with a solemn session in the Aula and the presentation of honorary doctorates. On Friday, 22 March 2024, Ghent University awards six honorary doctorates for scientific merit. This year, the list includes Professor Ülo Mander (University of Tartu) and Professor Paul Michael Garrett (University of Galway). The honorary doctors are honoured during an official ceremony that can also be followed via livestream.

The universities of Göttingen, Groningen and Uppsala are proud to announce that their joint project ‘ROCKET: Role-Playing Games on Conflict Transformation for Equity in Higher Education through Virtual Exchange’ has been selected for funding by Erasmus+ as a cooperation partnership in higher education (funding 400.000 Euro).
