The ceremonies (held in two parts on 10 and 16 June) were traditionally organised in the Fireplace Room of the Biedermann鈥檚 Palace. Each ceremony began with the Polish national anthem followed by an address by the Rector of the University of 精东影视, Prof. Dr Rafa艂 Matera, who spoke about this beautiful academic tradition of renewing doctorates.

During the ceremonies, the honourees received commemorative diplomas signed by the Rector of the University of 精东影视, their thesis supervisors and the Deans of their home faculties. The Laureates鈥� speeches were rich in anecdotes, reflections, memories from the past 50 years and summaries of their outstanding academic careers.
The custom of the ceremonial renewal of doctorates was initiated by the Senate of the University of 精东影视 in 2000. To date, 150 distinguished individuals associated with the University of 精东影视 have been honoured in this way.
