I do not wish to shake hands at my graduation ceremony, what should I do?
If you do not wish to shake hands during the ceremony you can doff your cap instead. If you are not wearing academic dress then you can place your hand on across your chest or use namaste.
If you have any questions related to your graduation, please email the Ceremonies Team. Current students can use Surrey Support by clicking the “Ask us a question” button below.
