Advancement to Candidacy Ceremony
Each year, immediately following the Graduate Research Conference Awards, the Graduate School hosts a special ceremony for our new doctoral candidates. Advancement to candidacy is a significant milestone on the journey toward a doctoral degree and deserves to be recognized. We invite mentors, guests, and all attendees of the GRC to celebrate the new candidates and honor their hard work thus far. The ceremony will be followed by a reception.
Ph.D. candidates who have advanced to candidacy since January 2023 are eligible to be recognized in this year’s Advancement to Candidacy Ceremony. If you will participate, please submit a photo to be included in the ceremony by April 5th, 2024.
Candidates, please register here.
