Celebrating #UGAPublicHealth Class of 2021!
A special message from Dean Marsha Davis
Congratulations Class of 2021! We know how hard you’ve worked to get here, especially this last year – navigating online courses and life on campus amid a pandemic.
The world now knows the important work we do in public health and how necessary it is to protect and improve the lives of our communities.
We know so many of you find public health because you want to help others. Let that passion carry you along the path that lies ahead.
We are so proud of our CPH Dawgs, and we can’t wait to see what you do next.
Marsha Davis
Dean, UGA College of Public Health

2021 Spring Commencement
The University of Georgia has announced Commencement ceremonies for its spring 2021 graduates, inviting them to join together and celebrate their accomplishments in Sanford Stadium this spring—provided these gatherings are declared safe by federal and state health officials.

CPH Graduation Celebration
Update
Dear students,
As many of you know, UGA will be hosting in-person commencement ceremonies in May for undergraduate and graduate students.
In order to safely hold the event, commencement ceremonies for undergraduate students will be staggered across three days. College of Public Health students will be celebrated in the evening on Saturday, May 15th.
UGA’s graduate student commencement ceremony will be held in the morning on Friday, May 14th.
You can find more information about each ceremony, along with safety guidelines, ticket details, and alternative participation opportunities at commencement.uga.edu.
CPH will not be hosting additional commencement events. We know that this may be disappointing for many of you, but we feel that the rate of transmission in our community is still too high to host a large, in-person gathering of our faculty, staff, students and families.
However, this does not diminish the pride and excitement we feel for you and your accomplishments. We are proud of all you have done and will do to advance the health for all.
Please do not hesitate to reach out to us if you have questions.
Dean Marsha Davis
