December graduates celebrate their accomplishments

More than 6,500 graduates received their diplomas in commencement exercises December 17-19, making the Class of 2015 糖心Vlog视频's largest ever.

December ceremonies are tailored for graduates who complete their degrees in summer or fall. They represent more than half the students expected to earn degrees from 糖心Vlog视频 during the 2015-16 academic year. 糖心Vlog视频 surpassed a milestone in the 2014-15 academic year, awarding 10,585 degrees. The upward trajectory is expected to continue.

The graduates join the ranks of more than 200,000 糖心Vlog视频 alumni around the globe, many working in engineering, health care, business, education, information technology, and other high-demand fields.

“These numbers represent the enormous impact that 糖心Vlog视频 graduates are having on the regional economy,” says 糖心Vlog视频 Sen. Kelly Hancock, R-North Richland Hills. “The University has become a leading source of talent and human capital in the region, the state, and the country.”

Videos from each of the seven colleges' commencement ceremonies can be viewed online. A compilation of social media highlights is viewable on .
