CSE Graduates Join Class of 2023 at Fall Commencement Ceremonies

Georgia Tech’s Fall Commencement festivities are in full swing this week, and 60 School of Computational Science and Engineering (CSE) students will join their peers in the graduating class of 2023. 

CSE graduates take the stage Dec. 15 at McCamish Pavilion for two ceremonies to officially “get out” of Tech. 17 Ph.D. graduates don their hoods at the morning Convocation while 43 M.S. graduates receive their diplomas in the afternoon.
