The University of Kentucky began offering grad—
uate work in 1870 and awarded its first graduate
degrees in 1876. The Graduate School became a
distinct unit in the University organization in l9l2.

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

Graduate work is offered in most colleges in the
University. A general description, tabulation of
courses, and name of the Director of Graduate
Studies for each of the various programs is given in
the Subjects and Directors of Graduate Study sec—

tion of this bulletin.

Organization of the Graduate School

The Graduate Faculty consists of the Dean of the
Graduate School and all persons appointed thereto
by the President of the University. As the chief
University agency for the promotion of the ideals
of graduate study, it determines the policies of the
Graduate School and makes recommendations to
the University Senate and to the President, or to

of
Gr<

Scl

ing

other administrative officials as appropriate. All
rules affecting graduate work and the inauguration
of new graduate programs must be approved by the
Graduate Faculty.

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

New Graduate Faculty members may be proposed
to the Dean of the Graduate School at any time by
the college cleans and department chairmen con-
cerned, or in the case of persons not attached to a
college faculty, by the Vice President for Academic
Affairs of the University. Eligibility qualifications
are as follows:

i. The doctor’s degree or its equivalent in schol—
arly reputation.

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

3. Scholarly maturity and professional productiv-
ity as demonstrated by publications, editorial
services, research surveys, creative work, or
patents; and research in progress at the time of
appointment.

4. Definite interest in graduate work and the will-
ingness to participate in the graduate program.

Appointment to the Graduate Faculty is made by
the President of the University on nomination by
the Dean of the Graduate School after he and the
Graduate Council have studied the credentials sub-
mitted in support of the proposed members.

Associate members are appointed by the Dean
of the Graduate School upon nomination by the
Director of Graduate Study. Associate membership
is limited to non-tenured assistant professors who
hold the doctorate, have been full-time members
of a faculty for at least one year, and have ini-
tiated a significant research effort. This member—
ship may continue no more than five years. As-
sociate members are authorized to teach graduate
courses, direct masters’ theses, serve on and co-
chair doctoral committees, and attend and partici-
pate in Graduate Faculty meetings. They do not
have voting privileges in the Graduate Faculty.

Administrative officers assigning teaching and
other duties to members of the Graduate Faculty
who are taking an active part in the graduate pro-
gram (i.e., are heavily engaged in directing theses,
carrying on productive research, etc.) should make
appropriate reduction in the duties required of such
teachers.

The Dean and His Office
The Dean of the Graduate School is charged with

the administration of the policies adopted by the
Graduate Faculty and the University Senate relating
to graduate studies. He presides over all meetings
of the Graduate Faculty and calls meetings of this
faculty whenever he thinks it advisable or whenever
requested to do so by one-fourth of the member-
ship. He makes recommendations to the Graduate
Faculty respecting the requirements for advanced
degrees, the regulations necessary to insure a high
standard of graduate work, and all other aspects of
the graduate program. He appoints a committee
for each graduate student, arranges for final exam-
inations, advises students with regard to their
studies and the requirements of the Graduate
School, and in all other ways administers the grad—
uate program in the interests of efficient instruc-
tion and the highest attainment possible on the
part of each graduate student. He is responsible
for determining and certifying to the Registrar can-
didates who have fulfilled requirements for ad-
vanced degrees. .

The President and the Dean of the Graduate
School are members ex officio of all committees of
the Graduate Faculty.

The Graduate Council

The Graduate Council is composed of l3 mem—
bers and the Dean of the Graduate School, who is
chairman. There are eight elected faculty repre-
sentatives and three faculty members appointed by
the Dean of the Graduate School. One of the
elected members is from the College of Agriculture,
two from the College of Arts and Sciences, one from
the College of Business and Economics, two from
the College of Education, one from the College of
Engineering, and one from the College of Medicine.
The member or members from each of these col-
leges are elected by the Graduate Faculty members
in that college. Two graduate student members are
selected by the Council from a panel of four sub-
mitted by the Graduate and Professional Student
Association. The term of office of the elected and
appointed members is three years, and that of the
graduate students is one year. No member may
succeed himself until three years have elapsed since
the completion of his last term.

The Graduate Council approvesor disapproves
proposals concerning courses offered for graduate
credit, and advises and lends assistance to the Dean
in his execution of policies and regulations deter-
mined by the Graduate Faculty. Specifically, the
Council:

1. Studies requests of departments relating to pro—
posed graduate programs.
2. Reviews existing programs and courses.

 
  
 
 
  
      

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

3. In cooperation with the Dean, initiates recom-
mendations to the Graduate Faculty. (This pro-
cedure is not intended to prevent a faculty mem-
ber from bringing any recommendation or re-
quest directly before the Graduate Faculty.)

The Graduate Council has such authority as is
herein granted, or such as the Dean or the Graduate
Faculty may delegate to it. A majority of the
Graduate Council constitutes a quorum for the
transaction of business.

Directors of Graduate Study

A Director of Graduate Study serves as adviser
to each student majoring in his area until the stu—
dent has a thesis director. The Director of Grad-
uate Study then recommends that the thesis direc-
tor be appointed the student’s adviser or committee
chairman. In areas where theses are not required,
the Director of Graduate Study is the adviser for all
students not writing theses. All student schedules
must be endorsed by the student’s adviser.

If it is desirable, a Director of Graduate Study
may recommend that additional advisers in the area
be appointed. A Director of Graduate Study who
is to be absent from the University for as long as
a semester must call this fact to the attention of
the Dean so that a substitute may be appointed.

The Dean of the Graduate School, with the ad-
vice of the college dean(s) and the approval of the
President, may recommend to the Graduate Faculty
the areas of graduate study and research into which
the University may be divided. (The logical unit for
an area is a department. By common consent, how-
ever, certain departments may be grouped into an
area; and in exceptional cases a department may
be divided into two or more areas.) The Directors
of Graduate Study for the various areas are ap-
pointed by the Dean of the Graduate School.

Establishment and Modification of Graduate Programs

An area which wishes to establish a new graduate
program or modify an existing one must submit its
program to the Graduate Council, which will make
recommendation concerning it to the Graduate Fac—
ulty.

Honorary Degrees

The selection of candidates for honorary degrees
originates in the Graduate Faculty, and the Grad-
uate Faculty makes its recommendations to the
University Senate.

Honorary degrees are normally conferred at the
May Commencement, but may be conferred at oth—
er times with the approval of the Graduate Faculty.

8

Recipients must be present in order to receive hon—
orary degrees.

STUDENT RESPONSIBILITY

It is the responsibility of the student to in—
form himself concerning all regulations and pro-
cedures required by the course of study he is pur-
suing. In no case will a regulation be waived or
an exception granted because a student pleads
ignorance of the regulation or asserts that he was
not informed of it by his adviser or other authority.
Therefore, the student should become familiar with
the Graduate School Bulletin, including (I) the sec-
tion presenting the requirements for the degree
which he plans to take, and (2) the offerings and
requirements of his major department.

The student should consult the Director of Grad-
uate Study of the department in which he will do
his work concerning course requirements, any de-
ficiencies, the planning of a program, and special
regulations. Departments may have degree require-
ments that are not listed in the Bulletin.

It is to be noted that the Graduate Dean inter-
prets the Graduate Bulletin. Only the Graduate
Council may waive requirements stated in this
Bulletin.

Admission

An applicant for admission to the University
shall not be discriminated against because of race,
color, religion, sex, marital status, national origin,
age or beliefs.

Students seeking admission to the University of
Kentucky Graduate School must hold a baccalau-
reate degree from a fully accredited institution of
higher learning. A minimum undergraduate grade-
point average of 2.5 on the basis of 4.0 is required
by The Graduate School. Individual departments
may require a higher grade-point average. Students
who are graduates of a non-accredited institution
will be considered for admission when satisfactory
scores on the GRE are received. Application forms
can be obtained by writing:

Graduate School Admissions
Room 304, Patterson Tower
University of Kentucky, Lexington, Kentucky

Applications and all supporting documents must
be submitted by the stated deadline (See Calendar).
It should be clearly understood that a graduate
student may not be able to begin immediately a
full graduate program leading to the degree he de-
sires; it may be necessary for him to satisfy pre-

  
 
  
 
  
   
    
 
   
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
   
   
  
 
   
   
 
  
   
   
   
  
  
  
  
  
   
 
   
  
  
  
  
   
   

 requisites which he omitted in his undergraduate
curriculum. Deficiences are determined by the de—
partment in which the major work is to be done.
Ordinarily, a graduate student may begin a full pro-
gram in any field in which he has a balanced under—
graduate major or its equivalent.

Admission to The Graduate School entitles a stu-
dent to take such courses as he desires, provided
he has the necessary prerequisites. However, ad-
mission does not automatically make a student a
candidate for a graduate degree.

Attendance in The Graduate School at the Uni—
versity of Kentucky is not a right. It is a privilege
which may be withdrawn by the University or any
area of graduate study if it is deemed necessary by
the Dean of The Graduate School in order to safe-
guard the University’s standards.

FOREIGN APPLICANTS

For applications purposes, any non-U.S. citizen
is a "foreign student;" except permanent resi-
dents of the US. Applicants should have excellent
grades and rank in the top quarter of their classes.
To be considered for entry as a graduate student
an applicant must have had four years of univer-
sity level work following a 12-year elementary—
secondary program. Indian students: (a first class
record is normally expected although high second
class holders in non-science areas may be consid-
ered if they can offer further evidence of having
been in at least the top I0 percent of their graduat-
ing class).

When credentials are submitted in support of any
application, they should be either the original docu-
ments or certified copies (i.e., copies certified as
”true copies” by a notary public or a United States
Embassy official). An official translation must be
attached to these records if they are in a language
other than English. Credentials should include a
record of all degrees earned, detailing all subjects
taken and grades obtained. Remember that uncer—
tified photostat copies are not adequate.

English Proficiency Requirement: The University
of Kentucky requires the Test of English as a For-
eign Language (TOEFL) of all applicants whose
native tongue is not English, including those from
India. The test is given in October, January, March
and June. To register you must obtain the TOEFL
Bulletin, which includes a registration form. Bulle-
tins are available in many locations outside the
US, usually at American embassies and consulates,
offices of the United States Information Service
(USIS), United States educational commissions and
foundations, binational centers, and many private
organizations such as the Institute of International

Education (lIE), African American Institute (AAI),
American Friends of the Middle East (AFME), and
American-Korean Foundation.

Important Notice: Candidates who want to be
tested in Hong Kong, India, Nepal, or the Republic
of China (Taiwan) must use the special editions of
the TOEFL Bulletin for these countries and adhere
to their special regulations and schedules. Copies
of these special bulletins can be obtained at the
addresses given below:

Hong Kong Edition: (I) Examinations Section,
Education Department, Canton Road Government
Offices, Ilth Floor, Canton Road, Kowloon; (2)

Students who cannot obtain a TOEFL Bulletin
and registration form locally should write for them,
well in advance, to: Test of English as a Foreign
Language, Box 899, Princeton, New Jersey 08540.

Financial Resources Requirement: Graduate ap—
plicants must certify that they have at least $3400
available per academic year. We estimate that this
amount will cover the cost of tuition fees ($I260),
books and supplies, room and meals, health insur-
ance (explained below) and incidentals, for a single
person, from the end of August to early May. The
summer session costs will total $900-$I 100 addi—
tional.

At the beginning of each registration period, you
must have $I500 on hand to pay for tuition fees,
room and board and health insurance. These items
are payable in September and January and cannot
be paid in monthly installments.

Financial Aid: The deadline for non-service fel-
lowships is February I for the following fall semes-
ter. Research assistantships are occasionally given
to first—year graduate students in departments re-
quiring laboratory work. Students should write to
the Chairman of the department to which they are
applying, for information about assistantships.

University Housing: For information on Univer-
sity of Kentucky housing, write well in advance to:
Housing Operations, 2I8-L Service Building, Uni-
versity of Kentucky, Lexington, Kentucky 40506.

Health Insurance Requirements 8: Information:

Health Services. The University of Kentucky has
a fine health care program for its students. The
Student Health Service clinic on the campus is

9

   
  
 
  
 
 

 
  
 
 
 
  
   

  

 

 

 

 

 

staffed with physicians, surgeons, psychiatrists, so-
cial workers and nurses who are specialists in the
health problems of young adults.

Health Fee. At the time tuition is paid, students
pay a health fee ($10 per semester in 1974—75)
which helps to support the health program. After
the fee is paid there are no further charges for most
of the services provided at the student health clinic.
Foreign students are required to pay the health fee
each semester.

Health Insurance. In addition to paying the
health fee, students must have health insurance to
cover the cost of hospitalization, accident care and
surgery. These costs are very high in the United
States and students must protect themselves (and
their families if they are married). As a service to
students who need insurance, the University makes
available a low-cost Blue Cross and Blue Shield
Student Group Insurance Plan that is the most com-
prehensive and cheapest insurance a student can
obtain.

At the beginning of the first semester on campus,
foreign students must present evidence at the Stu-
dent Health Service Insurance Office that they have
current insurance that is payable in the United
States, or they must be prepared to enroll in the
University's student insurance plan. They must
carry some type of health insurance, either their
own plan or the U.K. student insurance, as long as
they are enrolled at the University. The policy for
a single student costs about $50 per year; it is paid
in two installments of about $25 every six months.
The coverage of the policy begins August 26 for
those entering in the fall. Family protection is also
available through the student insurance plan. The
cost for a student and non-student spouse (without
maternity benefits) is about $55 every six months.
If there are children in the family, or if maternity
benefits are desired, the cost is about $85 every six
months to cover the entire family.

Brochures describing the benefits of the insur—
ance policy and the services covered by the health ,
fee are available at the Health Service. A student
with the benefits provided by the health fee and the
coverage provided by the UK. Student Group Health
Insurance Plan can be sure that the cost of an ill-
ness will not be a catastrophe. It should be noted
that dental care and‘examinations for glasses and
some drugs are not provided by either plan.

Health Report Form. Foreign students cannot be
be accepted for admission until the Graduate Ad—
missions Office has received a completed health
report form, indicating that the student has had a
recent physical examination. Health forms are
mailed with the other application documents that a
student receives from the Graduate Admissions
Office.

10

Application Deadline For Foreign Students: Ap-
plications for admission and complete credentials
should reach us at least six months before the open-
ing of the term you wish to enter, that is, March 1
for the fall semester; July 15 for the spring semes-
ter; and November 1 for all summer sessions.

READMlSSION

Former University of Kentucky students in good
standing are eligible for readmission. They must
file an application for readmission by the stated
deadlines (See Calendar). An exception to this rule
is made on behalf of students who attend only Uni—
versity Summer Sessions. These students do not
have to apply for readmission to a Summer Session
if they were enrolled for the preceding Summer
Session.

Computerized registration cards, which must be
prepared in advance for any registration period,
are not made for a student after one semester’s
absence from the University. It is only by the filing
of an application for readmission in advance that
the Registrar’s Office can be alerted to the fact
that a student intends to re-enter the University
and prepare for him the necessary registration
forms in time for registration.

GRADUATING SENIORS AS PART-TIME
GRADUATE STUDENTS

A senior in the University of Kentucky lacking
no more than six credit hours for graduation and
having an undergraduate average of at least 2.5
on all work attempted may register in The Graduate
School with the consent of his college dean and
the Dean of The Graduate School. Approval of the
appropriate director of graduate study is required
if the student is to be an applicant for a degree.
The total load of such a student may not exceed
12 credit hours. Graduate credit will be allowed
for each credit hour of graduate work beyond the
six or fewer credit hours needed to complete under-
graduate requirements. Requirements for the under—
graduate degree must be completed during the se-
mester in which the student is allowed to register
for part—time graduate work. Students desiring to
enroll in The Graduate School under these condi—
tions must fill out in duplicate a petition listing the
course or courses to be taken in order to complete
their undergraduate requirements. The petition
must be approved by both deans concerned.

ADVANCED DEGREES FOR FACULTY

General Requirements for All
Advanced Degrees

REGISTRATION AND CLASSIFICATION

All students expecting graduate credit must be
enrolled in the Graduate School. Graduate students
will conform to the general registration schedule of
the University and may not enter later than the last
allowable date set by the Registrar.

Before registering, a graduate student must ob-
tain his adviser's approval of his proposed program.

THE GRADUATE RECORD EXAMINATION

The Graduate Faculty has recently approved the
following requirement for admission to The Grad—
uate School, effective the fall semester, 1975. All
applicants for admission to degree programs in
The Graduate School must submit scores on the
verbal and quantitative portions of the Graduate
Record Examination. This rule may be waived in
individual cases upon recommendation of the Di-
rector of Graduate Studies in the individual de-
partment or program. But in cases where waivers
are granted, the GRE scores must be submitted
before the end of the first semester of graduate
study. The advanced portion of the GREvmay be
required by individual departments or programs if
they so desire. (This excludes students who do not
plan to work toward a graduate degree i.e., visiting
students, Rank |, fifth-year, and occasional stu-
dents.)

The College of Business and Economics may sub—
stitute the Admission Test for Graduate Study in
Business (ATGSB) for the Graduate Record Exami-
nation for MBA, DBA and Accounting students.

The Medical College Admission Test or the Den—
tal College Admission Test may be substituted for
the verbal and quantitative portions of the GRE
with the approval of the program concerned.

Students who have earned a doctorate are ex-
empt from MCAT or the GRE.
