Your diploma/certificate was issued in 2015-2016 or later
If your diploma/certificate was issued in 2015-2016 or later, you also received a digital copy of your diploma/certificate.
This document contains an authenticity code which enables third parties to verify your diploma/certificate.
If you have lost the hard copy of your diploma, you can use this digital copy and do not have to request for a duplicate.
However, this solution is not possible for certificates where, in addition to the signature of the rector, other signatures appear (e.g. certificates of continuing education/training from the lifelong learning offer).
Physician-specialist: attention
If you started your training before academic year 2009-2010 (this means if you did not achieve the 'master in de specialistische geneeskunde'), you do not have an academic diploma of your specialisation.
This means that you can not obtain a duplicate of your diploma 'physician-specialist' at Ghent University.
We suggest to take contact with the qualified recognition committee.
You need a duplicate of your diploma supplement
You can obtain a duplicate of your diploma supplement free of charge from the Faculty Student Administration.
