Abstract

This article presents a model for representing and studying academic intangible cultural heritage pertaining to conferment ceremonies organized by universities in Europe since the 1100’s. A new Linked Open Data (LOD) service and semantic portal on top of it in-use called ConfermentSampo – 100 conferments of the Faculty of Philosophy at the University of Helsinki 1643–2023 is introduced. It allows data related to conferment celebrations, rituals, and academics involved in different roles to be published, stored, and researched using Semantic Web technologies. A goal of our work is to preserve and foster conferment traditions for the future generations of academics.
