Thirty-six high-achieving seniors will graduate from the Jeffrey S. Raikes School of Computer Science and Management at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln on May 17. The Raikes School is an interdisciplinary honors program known for developing innovative leaders at the intersection of technology and business.

To graduate from the Raikes School, students must earn at least a 3.5 cumulative grade-point average, satisfy Raikes School curricular requirements, complete a two-year experiential-learning capstone called Design Studio and fulfill other University Honors Program requirements.

“These students exemplify the core values of the Raikes School, and we are proud of all they have accomplished during their time at Nebraska” said Adam Britten, director of recruitment and student success for the Raikes School. “We are excited to see the great things they will unquestionably accomplish in the years ahead.”

The 36 students join nearly 600 alumni who have graduated from the Raikes School since the school welcomed its first cohort in 1999.
