School of Education and Graduate Studies Hold Separate Graduation Ceremonies

Master’s and doctoral students can attend either or both but must register for them separately

Master’s and doctoral students have the option of attending two ceremonies: one hosted by Graduate Studies and one hosted by the School of Education. This does not apply for credential students.

School of Education Graduation

  • The School of Education ceremony on June 12, 2024 in the Mondavi Center is just for our credential, master’s, Ph.D. and Ed.D. students, and the program is focused on the education field rather than being for a general audience. All students are presented by their primary faculty advisor/supervisor and receive a cord or stole placed over the shoulders. Ph.D. and Ed.D. students are not hooded at this ceremony.
  • If you have any questions about the School of Education ceremony, contact our graduation staff at soe_graduation@ucdavis.edu.
