Commencement 2026

Class of 2026: 60th Commencement Exercises

Commencement will take place in three separate ceremonies—two for undergraduate and one for graduate. All ceremonies will be held at the Hartford HealthCare Amphitheater, 500 Broad Street, Bridgeport, CT 06604 and will be livestreamed so that those who are unable to attend can watch either live or at a later time. We look forward to celebrating with each of you in May.
