Graduate Student Reunion

Reunite with Your Physics Classmates at the 2025 Graduate Reunion!

April 4-6th, 2025

We are excited to invite all alumni of the Department of Physics to join us for the Physics Graduate Reunion in conjunction with Washington University’s University-Wide Reunion weekend in April 2025. Whether you’ve stayed connected with the department or it’s been a few years since you’ve visited campus, we’d love for you to come back and reconnect with your fellow alumni, faculty, and current students.

 

WashU Reunion

The Physics Graduate Reunion will take place on the same weekend as the University-wide Reunion, but we’ll be hosting exclusive events and programming designed just for our physics community. You’ll have the chance to reconnect with former classmates and faculty; hear updates from the department and learn about current research and innovations; tour the state-of-the-art facilities and labs; participate in social gatherings and networking opportunities with alumni from various years; enjoy a specially curated program that highlights the impact of our department’s research and its ongoing contributions to the field of physics. This is your opportunity to celebrate the vibrant and growing Physics Department at Washington University, all while reliving fond memories from your time as a graduate student.
