The College of Health & Human Services is pleased to invite graduating students from our master's and doctoral programs to take part in a hooding ceremony. The hooding ceremony is a special recognition event for students receiving their master’s or doctoral degrees only. Candidates will be recognized and honored by College administration and program faculty in the company of your family and friends. This ceremony is a College of Health and Human Services event and does not replace the large University-wide ceremony taking place at the Golden1 Center where your degree is officially conferred.

Eligible students will receive an email with a personal invitation to confirm your participation and indicate how many guests you will have attend (up to 4 guests per graduate, unless more is specially requested). To ensure your spot, please RSVP by May 1, 2025.
