CONVERSION NOTES This is the Graduate Catalogue. Most references to Undergraduate programs and options have been

removed and put in the Undergraduate Catalogue.

This catalogue was created by converting HTML content into a PDF file. The complex inter-linkage of references was only partially duplicated, but all data from the HTML structure is in this PDF file. The most complete information on any Degree or Program will be under the College or School, in the Department’s Academic Offerings.

Hyperlinks There are hundreds of hyperlinks in the text. Most of them link to pages in the PDF, but some link back to the website, and may link to web pages with current information that is not applicable to this catalogue. To find out where the link goes: hover the cursor over a hyperlink. If the cursor becomes a hand with pointing finger, it is a local link that will go to a page in the PDF. If the cursor becomes a hand with pointing finger and a box with a “W” in it, the link goes to the web.

Courses specific to a Program are listed under the College/School under the Departments and Programs link.

Odd Characters The conversion program changed lower case “st” into a ligature: It sometimes changed apostrophes and hyphens into a diamond with a question mark:

The Find/Replace function does not recognize these characters, so they could not be replaced.

The University of Vermont and Burlington Community

The University of Vermont was founded in 1791, taking its place among the handful ofcolleges founded in this country in the eighteenth century for the higher education ofyoung colonials and Americans of the frs posrevolutionary generation. The Universitywas the ffth New England college chartered (after Harvard, Yale, Dartmouth, andBrown), the second esablished by a sate to grant the bachelor�s degree, and thetwentieth in the nation to do so.

The University pioneered in yet another area of society, that of giving women equalsatus with men in higher education, by becoming the frs insitution in the country toadmit women to full membership in the scholarly society, Phi Beta Kappa.

Though it has enjoyed a long tradition of subsantial private support, Universitydevelopment has been identifed closely with that of the State since 1791, whenVermont�s founding General Assembly granted a charter to the University and set asideabout 29,000 acres throughout the State with the intent that rents from this land wouldsupport the new educational insitution. The same Vermont General Assemblyesablished that the bylaws of the University should give no preference to any religioussect or denomination or discriminate agains any, making The University of Vermont thefrs in this country to go on public record as supporting freedom of religion upon itscampus.

The University of Vermont consiss of the Colleges of Agriculture and Life Sciences, Artsand Sciences, Engineering and Mathematics, Education and Social Services, Medicine,and the Graduate College; the Schools of Allied Health Sciences, BusinessAdminisration, Natural Resources, and Nursing; and Continuing Education.

With a population of about 39,000, Burlington is Vermont�s larges city. The greaterBurlington area of approximately 132,000 inhabitants is divided between pleasantsuburbs and picturesque farms and woodland. Burlington enjoys magnifcent views ofLake Champlain and the Adirondack Mountains to the wes and Vermont�s GreenMountains to the eas. Easily available outdoor activities include swimming, boating,hiking, climbing, and skiing. For more information, please visit the City of BurlingtonWebsite .

Students whose aid is withdrawn for not maintaining academic progress according to thesandard outlined above may appeal their loss of aid by writing to the Director ofFinancial Aid. The decision to withhold aid eligibility may be overridden by the Directorand a fve member appeals committee in circumsances which warrant specialconsideration. Such circumsances may include but are not limited to medicalemergencies or family crises which resulted in the sudent's not meeting the satedrequirements.
