The 116th Commencement

Saturday, May 13, 2023

A Message from the Dean

On behalf of the USC Alfred E. Mann School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, I am pleased to congratulate the members of the class of 2023.

Today is a historic day. You are each a member of the first class to graduate from our 118-year-old school with its new name. Today is also unique as we gather for Commencement at the USC University Park Campus for the first time in many years.

To the family and friends of the graduates: I would like to give a special acknowledgement to you for your support during these challenging, but rewarding, years. Today, I hope you will relish the shared feeling of pride in what your graduate has accomplished and in the abundant opportunities ahead.

To the graduates: As you receive the degree you have worked so hard to earn, remember that you are a driver of change and innovation. Whether you are now a new pharmacist, pharmacologist or pharmaceutical scientist, health economist or regulatory expert, you are entering the healthcare continuum with the potential to save lives and improve the human condition. We are counting on you and the change you will bring to our world.

In the years to come, I encourage you to remain close with your former professors and fellow Trojans. We will take great pride in your achievements throughout your career, and you are forever a member of the Trojan family.

Congratulations, again, to the class of 2023. Fight on!

Today’s ceremony is being live-streamed, and will be available to view at https://commencement.usc.edu
