CSE Homecoming Celebration
Join your fellow College of Science and Engineering (CSE) alumni for one of the University of Minnesota’s longest-standing and most attended traditions—the Homecoming Parade! Before the parade officially kicks off at 6:30 p.m., head to Walter Library for light refreshments, a few family activities, and great conversations with old friends and new faces. As a token of our appreciation, all CSE alumni who attend will receive a free knit hat.
Why just watch the parade when you can be the star? We also invite you and your family to lace up your walking shoes and march with us in the procession. With nearly 40% of the Minnesota Marching Band made up of CSE students, you’ll be joining a strong tradition of representing the college in the parade! Whether you're proudly carrying your department’s banner, handing out goodies to future Gophers, or simply enjoying the excitement from a new perspective, it’s a unique way to engage with the celebration.
We hope you join us as we come together with students, alumni, faculty, staff, and future Gophers to showcase our University of Minnesota spirit!
This event is complimentary, but pre-registration is required. If you have questions, please email [email protected].
