Congratulations to the members of the Caltech Class of 2021!

Our virtual degree conferral and graduation ceremony was held on Friday, June 11, 2021. The video is available on the Watch page of this site.

Caltech's 127th Commencement ceremony included remarks from President Rosenbaum and Board Chair David Lee, special remarks from notable Caltech alumni and friends of Caltech, and the conferral of undergraduate and graduate degrees. During the degree conferral, individual student names were read by the deans and division chairs, just as they would have been at a typical in-person ceremony. In addition, the virtual nature of this event provided us the opportunity to create a personalized slide for each graduate to accompany the reading of names.
