Venue: The PNC Bank Arts Center, a beautiful outdoor performance space, was identified as the venue that best matched our community’s needs after thorough discussions with students, parents, staff and faculty. It offers ample seating and parking to accommodate everyone. Stevens is in the final stages of confirming the contract with PNC; families should refrain from making non-refundable, final travel plans until further notice.

Ceremonies: There will be two ceremonies on the big day — a morning ceremony for all undergraduate candidates and an afternoon ceremony for all graduate candidates. Names of candidates from Summer 2023, Fall 2023 and Spring 2024 will be announced at the appropriate ceremony.

Special Ph.D. Hooding Ceremony: For our Ph.D. graduates, a special hooding ceremony will occur on Monday, May 20, 2024, on the Stevens campus. Ph.D. graduates are also welcome to participate in the Graduate Ceremony on May 22, 2024.

Gradfest: All are invited to this traditional celebration honoring the Class of 2024 and their families on Tuesday evening, May 21, 2024, on the Stevens campus.
