    Default with no name of

    "I received this pony certificate of graduation with no name of the conferred degree specified."


    Is the structure of the underlined phrase grammatically correct?

    I also want to know how, as an alternative, "without the name of the conferred degree specified" sounds.

    Which one, if any, is good to use?

    Thanks

    Your alternative reads better, in my opinion.
