Join us on Thursday, June 10, 2021 at 5 pm PDT for the premiere of the Virtual Celebration for the Doctoral Class of 2021. Celebrate the achievements of doctoral graduates in a communal way, with mentors, peers, family, and friends. The 90-minute virtual celebration will start with brief congratulatory remarks from UCLA leaders. Each doctoral graduate will be recognized thereafter.
If you are having trouble viewing the video above, you may also view the celebration by visiting the UCLA Graduate Division StageClip Site directly.
Note that the virtual celebration is a prerecorded video and not a live-streamed event. The video will remain accessible online for an extended period of time. We encourage you to post your celebration photos on social media by using the hashtags: #UCLADoctoralClass2021 #UCLA2021 #BruinProud.
Click the button below to see the graduate celebration clips of the 2021 doctoral graduates. You will be directed to the StageClip site.
The graduate celebration clips will be searchable by name and each one will highlight the degree being awarded and their major. Graduates who responded to our invitation to submit their content, their photo, a 10-second video clip, and/or a custom message will also be included in their celebration clip. The downloadable graduate celebration clip is a perfect way to cherish and share this momentous occasion with family and friends.
The digital program contains the complete list of doctoral graduates with the name, degree awarded, major, dissertation title, and dissertation chair(s).

Eligibility and Participation
To ensure the safety of our community, the UCLA Graduate Division will not be holding the traditional in-person Doctoral Hooding Ceremony this Spring quarter. Unfortunately, we will have to delay this year’s event until it is safe and we are allowed to hold large gatherings on campus. More information regarding an in-person ceremony for the doctoral classes of 2020 and 2021 will be shared as it becomes available.
