A Strong Tradition

Always marked by a little sadness, university graduation is nevertheless a very happy event. New adventures and a life full of hope lies ahead. Since 2013, HSE has held an entertaining farewell party for its graduates at the end of each year. Undergraduates and Master’s students from every faculty listen to parting words from the university officials, including deans, professors and the Rector himself, and everything happens in the best academic traditions, with gowns and caps that fly in the air.

But can there be a party be without a show and dancing?

Since 2014, HSE graduations have been marked by costume parties dedicated to a certain theme. Party guests have already travelled to the visionary world of the Back to the Future trilogy, remembering the most interesting and important things to happen in HSE’s past, imagining the cosmic future of its graduates, and dancing with Marty McFly. In 2015, they found themselves in the Star Wars world, with the atmosphere created at a Moscow night club. Graduates fought with lightsabers, danced in the beams of galactic gas, and received a great parting message from Master Qu, into whom the rector had been transformed. The theme of graduation in 2016 will be movement. You’ll be immersed in the atmosphere of a high-tech future and, of course, music, which will give the graduates – engines of progress – the tempo needed to launch into the professional world.

Engines of their generation

An engine is something that transforms energy into action. An engine brings cars and trains to life, overcomes gravitation, and makes your laptop work. And what is the force that provides energy to create various technologies, both social and engineering? The answer, of course, is knowledge, the most powerful engine, which is able to supply power to science and the whole of human evolution.

HSE is the workshop where such super-engines are produced; they are not internal combustion, but real jet engines! Today’s graduates are already becoming the mechanism that creates the future; they are the drivers of progress. Now is the time to give them the right speed!
