Gowns and Hoods


Gowns
are worn open and are designed to hang straight with a four-inch gap down the front.

Mortarboards and birretum are worn so the board or brim is flat above your head with the tassel hanging on the left hand side.

Ceremonial hoods are pinned with the narrow black strip showing across the front gap of the gown.  Hoods are colour-coded to identify the graduate’s field of study.

*Note that the following list includes hoods for both current and retired programs.
