For UW students graduating between summer 2022 – summer 2023 with their Physics bachelor’s, master’s, or doctoral degrees, we invite you to participate in the Physics Department in-person graduation recognition celebration.
Cap and gown are optional for the Physics Departmental Graduation Ceremony. You may reserve your cap and gown and also parking to attend the Physics Department Graduation Ceremony through the UW Commencement registration form (https://www.washington.edu/graduation/registrationorder-form/) which will be open between May 3-21, 2023.
Those who are interested in the campus-wide ceremony at Husky Stadium, please visit the UW Commencement website for schedule details for the stadium event, cap and gown orders (required if you attend the Husky Stadium ceremony), parking, tickets (to the Husky Stadium ceremony), and registration to participate. The campus-wide ceremony at Husky Stadium opens their doors at 12:30pm with the procession at 1:30pm—It is possible for you to attend both the Physics event and this if you choose!
The campus wide ceremony is managed entirely by the Office of Ceremonies. For any questions about the campus wide ceremony, visit their website: https://www.washington.edu/graduation/
