Important Dates
August 10: Commencement Exercises
1:30 p.m. - United Spirit Arena
The commencement ceremony for Whitacre College of Engineering undergraduates will begin at 1:30 p.m. Graduates will enter through the drive-in bay at the north end of the arena, in cap and gown. To avoid confusion in the arena (practice court) where graduates are lining up, guests will use the other entrances in the arena. There will be signs and/or marshals to help you find the Engineering information table. You will line up alphabetically within your major. Please do not bring your personal belongings with you. As a courtesy to other graduates and guests, we ask that you and your guests remain seated until the ceremony is completed.
