The American University of Kurdistan is holding its second commencement ceremony for graduating classes of 2019, 2020, and 2021. As graduation ceremonies and gatherings, in general, were not possible the past two years due to the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic and the safety regulations by The Kurdistan Regional Government, AUK is awarding degrees to a total number of 118 graduates this year and celebrating their academic success within the circle of families and high-ranked guests.
