Graduation process for Robotics students
For MS Students
Per the Robotics Grad Manual, a student who has fulfilled all degree requirements must apply for graduation in the term in which completion is expected and will be prohibited from further enrollment.
Once the student has Applied for Graduation they must submit the completed and signed MS Degree Worksheet to robotics-sso@umich.edu.
PhD Embedded MS
Students who enter the PhD Program without a master’s degree in Robotics may decide to have a MS degree in Robotics conferred once they have completed the degree requirements. Students should inform the Robotics SSO that they would like the master’s degree conferred. The Graduate Coordinator will request that the Registrar’s Office add the MS program to the student’s record. The student is then required to apply for graduation via the Wolverine Access system.
Once the student has Applied for Graduation they must submit the completed and signed MS Degree Worksheet to robotics-sso@umich.edu.
Deadlines to Apply for Graduation
The deadline for having a name printed in the commencement booklet is typically the first weeks of October (for Fall/December graduation) and March (for May/Winter graduation). The final deadline to apply for graduation is the last day of classes in the term in which the degree will be conferred. The Robotics SSO will communicate these dates to Robotics students via email. For more details:
- Master’s students should refer to Rackham’s Master’s Degree Diploma Application Deadlines page.
- Doctoral students should refer to Rackham’s Doctoral Degree Deadlines as well as our Rackham’s Completing the Doctoral Degree requirements page.
More information on Diplomas and Commencement can be found on Rackham’s Commencement and Eligibility page.
The Robotics Department typically hosts an informal Commencement celebration the day before Spring Commencement. More information will be released via email as soon as it becomes available.
