Dear UHD Faculty,
We are pleased to announce that the University of Houston-Downtown will host the 78th Commencement Ceremony on Saturday, May 17, 2025 at 1pm, at NRG Stadium. The event honors the accomplishments of UHD’s Spring 2025 undergraduate and graduate students and will be celebrated in one ceremony for all academic colleges.
As we prepare for this auspicious occasion, we seek faculty participation.
To ensure ample parking passes and to facilitate regalia rental for faculty who may need it, we ask that you confirm your attendance by completing the Faculty Attendance and Staff Participation Form no later than Friday, April 18 by Noon. After April 18, while we still welcome faculty to register to attend, we will be unable to guarantee parking passes and regalia.
Regalia and parking validations will be distributed prior to the ceremony on designated dates. Confirmed commencement participants will receive more information in the coming weeks.
Guest tickets are not required for this ceremony. If your students have questions about commencement, please direct them to email uhdgraduation@uhd.edu.
This is an exciting milestone for our students and their loved ones as they depart UHD to embark upon their future endeavors.
We eagerly anticipate your participation in making this day memorable. Your presence will add immeasurable value to the celebration.
Warm regards,
Dr. Deborah E. Bordelon
Provost and Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs
University of Houston-Downtown
