THE GRADUATE SCHOOL

 

The University of Kentucky began offering graduate
work in 1870 and awarded its first graduate degrees in
1876. The Graduate School became a distinct unit in the
University organization in 1912.

The Graduate School is concerned with advanced
study, graduate instruction and research conducted by
the faculty and students of all colleges and departments.
The total graduate resources of the University are
merged under it for the purpose of promoting the
acquisition of knowledge in an atmosphere of free and
lively inquiry.

Graduate work is offered in most colleges in the
University. A general description and tabulation of
courses for each of the various programs is given in the
Graduate School Programs section of this bulletin.

Organization of The Graduate School

The Graduate Faculty consists of the Dean of The
Graduate School, Associate and/ or Assistant Deans of
The Graduate School, and Full and Associate Graduate
Faculty Members. As the chief University agency for the
promotion of the ideals of graduate study, it determines
the policies of The Graduate School and makes recom—
mendations to the University Senate and to the Presi-
dent, or to other administrative officials as appropriate.
All rules affecting graduate work and the inauguration of
new graduate programs must be approved by the Gradu:
ate Faculty.

Any proposed change in the rules of the Graduate
Faculty must be included in the agenda of its meeting
and circulated to the Graduate Faculty at least 10 days
prior to the meeting at which it is to be considered.

The Academic Common Market

Kentucky is a participating state in The
Academic Common Market, an interstate agree-
ment among Southern states for sharing academic
programs. Students who qualify for admission may
enroll in a specific program in another A.C.M. state
on an in—state tuition basis. At present, the agree-
ment has been limited to unusual graduate pro-
grams. For information, write: Southern Regional
Education Board, 130 Sixth Street N.W., Atlanta,
Georgia.

New Graduate Faculty members may be proposed to
the Dean of The Graduate School at any time by the
college deans and department chairs concerned, or in
the case of persons not attached to a college faculty, by
the appropriate Chancellors of the University. Eligibility
qualifications are as follows:

1. The doctor’s degree or its equivalent in scholarly
reputation.

2. The rank of assistant professor (or equivalent), or
higher.

3. Scholarly maturity and professional productivity as
demonstrated by publications, editorial sen/ices,
research surveys, creative work or patents; and 1
research in progress at the time of appointment. ‘
4. Demonstrated participation in the graduate 1
teaching and research program.

Appointment to full Graduate Faculty membership is
made by the Vice President for Research and Graduate
Studies on nomination by the Dean of The Graduate
School after consultation with the Graduate Council
when appropriate.

Full members of the Graduate Faculty are particularly
responsible for:

1. Guidance of graduate student research and study
to its completion. The finished work should meet
or exceed accepted standards for publication,
dissemination or performance within the particular
discipline and

2. Participation in the formulation of graduate
curricula and policy.
