Texas A&M To Award More Than 11,200 Degrees At May Commencements
Texas A&M University will award approximately 11,203 degrees to spring graduates at 15 in-person commencement ceremonies this month. Commencements will be held May 7 through May 28 for undergraduate, master’s and doctoral students.
“Along with a sense of renewal and fresh opportunities for growth each spring, Texas A&M University proudly sends Aggie graduates out to shape the world’s future and positively impact solutions to challenges around the globe,” said Interim Provost and Executive Vice President Dr. Timothy P. Scott ’89. “Congratulations to each graduate and their friends and family.”
Graduates will have their names called and walk the stage, then return to their seats. Diplomas will be mailed after the ceremony. Diploma tubes will be provided at the ceremonies for photographs.
School officials note commencements are a celebration of each student’s accomplishments, and every effort is made to ensure safety, security and decorum of a public event befitting their success. Guests are encouraged to refrain from disruptive behaviors, which may negatively impact this special moment for students and their families. Clear bags are also required at all commencement ceremonies at Reed Arena.
All seven College Station ceremonies will be televised live by KAMU-TV and livestreamed via the KAMU website.
