UT Southwestern Graduates Celebrate Commencement
Around Campus
In May, nearly 300 graduates of UT Southwestern’s Medical School and Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences celebrated earning their degrees. Students returned to campus for in-person commencement ceremonies for the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic caused cancellation of on-site graduations in 2020. UTSW medical students consistently match for residencies at some of the top-ranked medical programs in the nation, while UT Southwestern is ranked among the top 20 graduate schools for biological sciences by U.S. News & World Report. In December 2020, the largest class of UTSW School of Health Professions students to date – nearly 150 – celebrated their graduation in a virtual ceremony.
