Photo Gallery: Commencement 2018

The second weekend in May was full of celebrations, awards, and smiling graduates. Across the University of Wisconsin–Madison School of Pharmacy’s PharmD, Pharmacology-Toxicology, and graduate programs, we ushered more than 100 new graduates into the next stage of their life, whether that means pharmacy practice, research, academia, or the pursuit of another degree. 

In addition to the state of Wisconsin gaining a new group of world-class pharmacists and researchers, the School of Pharmacy also added dozens of passionate professionals to our alumni network. Let’s take a photo tour of the weekend’s commencement events.
