Welcome, MIT faculty and lecturers!

The Commencement 2025 ceremonies are scheduled for May 28–30. Information will continue to populate this site as details for the 2025 festivities are confirmed.


The Commencement ceremonies are celebratory events honoring significant academic achievement. Our primary concerns are the safety of our community and guests and the ability of all to enjoy the festivities at graduation time. The MIT guidance on free expression at campus events recognizes that such expression is essential to the Institute’s mission, while not being permitted to unreasonably interfere with or disrupt Institute events, programs, activities, academics, research, or operations.
