I work for 
Thesis Exam and Graduation
On Thursday the 28th I had my thesis exam. We started with a short presentation of selected parts of our work, which was followed by an individual examination. Our censor was Michael Schwartzbach, who contributed to the development of the Cartesian Product Algorithm, the scientific center piece of our thesis. Anyway, the exam went well, and we all got the grade 11! Super cool! Especially because our censor really knew the subject, which made the grade so much more meaningful.
With this exam my studies at Aalborg University are complete, which is kind of strange. But still a happy day. The last thing to attend was the graduation ceremony (dimission), which was held yesterday.
There was a bunch of speakers at the ceremony including a representative for the local companies. Grimur Lund from Logimatc talked about the transition from being a student to being an employee, and praised some of our qualities as graduates from AAU. It’s kind of funny that he spoke at the ceremony because when I attended FutureCamp Nordjylland back in 2001 I was in the same group as him, namely the Digital Business.
We got our exam papers, and there were a lot of graduates (in excess of 200) so it took a while. Afterwards there was a small reception and then I rode my bike home.
A couple of pictures from the ceremony below; the rest are in the gallery.

[...] Sure thing. And now it’s up. The page erroneously lists me as a student, which is wrong. Anyway, who am I to complain If my scribblings can help explain to prospective Student Partners [...]
