THE GRADUATE SCHOOL
ORGANIZATION AND HISTORY
The Graduate School consists of the dean, associate
dean, assistant deans, the Graduate Council, and the
graduate faculty. General policies and standards of the
Graduate School are established by the graduate faculty.
Any policy change must be approved by the graduate
deans and the Graduate Council. The Graduate School
is responsible for the enforcement of minimum general
standards of graduate work in the University and for the
coordination of the graduate programs of the various col-
leges and divisions of the University. The responsibility
for the detailed operations of graduate programs is vested
in the individual colleges, schools, divisions, and depart-
ments. In most of the colleges an assistant dean or other
official is directly responsible for graduate study in that
college.
The Graduate Council assists the dean in being the
agent of the graduate faculty for execution of policy
related to graduate study and associated research. The
Council, which is chaired by the graduate dean, con-
siders petitions and recommends the award of graduate
degrees. Members of the graduate faculty, who are
appointed by the dean with the approval of the Graduate
Council, fall into two categories in accordance with their
function: the Graduate Studies Faculty (GSF), who are
appointed to teach graduate courses and to direct
master's theses, and the Doctoral Research Faculty (DRF),
who are appointed in addition to direct doctoral disser-
tations. No staff member is expected to perform any of
these functions without having been appointed to the
graduate faculty, though temporary exceptions may be
made in unusual circumstances.
In the beginning the organization of graduate study was
very informal: Control was in the hands of a faculty com-
mittee which reported directly to the President. In 1910,
however, James N. Anderson, Head of the Department
of Ancient Languages, was appointed Dean of the Col-
lege of Arts and Sciences and Director of Graduate Work,
and in 1930 he became the first Dean of the Graduate
School. He was succeeded upon his retirement in 1938
by T. M. Simpson, Head of the Department of
Mathematics, who held the position until 1951. C. F.
Byers, Head of the Department of Biological Sciences
in the University College, served as Acting Dean from
June 1951 until August 1952 when he was succeeded
by L. E. Grinter, who came from the Illinois Institute of
Technology, where he had been Vice President, Dean
of the Graduate School, and Research Professor. Upon
becoming Acting Vice President in 1969, Dr. Grinter was
named Dean Emeritus of the Graduate School. He was
succeeded by Harold P. Hanson, who came to Florida
from the University of Texas, where he had served as
Chairman of the Department of Physics. In 1971, Dr.
Hanson was appointed Vice President for Academic
Affairs. Alexander G. Smith of the Department of Physics.
and Astronomy and a former assistant dean of the
Graduate School, served as Acting Dean until the
appointment of Harry H. Sisler. Dr. Sisler served as Chair-
man of the Department of Chemistry, Dean of the Col-
lege of Arts and Sciences, and Executive Vice President
of the University of Florida prior to being named Dean
of the Graduate School in March 1973. In September
1979, Dr. Sisler returned to teaching as Distinguished
Service Professor of Chemistry and F. Michael Wahl was
appointed Acting Dean. Dr. Wahl came to Florida from
the University of Illinois in 1969. He served as Professor
and Chairman of the Department of Geology from 1969
to 1973 when he was named Associate Dean of the
Graduate School. In June 1980 Francis G. Stehli became
Dean for Graduate Studies and Research. Dr. Stehli came
to Florida from Case Western Reserve University where
he had served as Samuel St. John Professor of Geology,
Chairman of the Department of Geology, and Dean of
Science and Engineering. In September 1982, Dr. Stehli
became Dean of the College of Geosciences at the
University of Oklahoma.
Graduate study at the University of Florida existed
while the University was still on its Lake City campus.
However, the first graduate degrees-two Master of Arts
with a major in English and a Master of Science with a
major in entomology-were awarded on the Gainesville
campus in 1906. The first programs leading to the Ph.D.
were initiated in 1930, and the first degrees were
awarded in 1934, one with a major in chemistry and the
other with a major in pharmacy. The first Ed.D. was
awarded in 1948. Graduate study has had a phenomenal
growth at the University of Florida. In 1930, 33 degrees
were awarded in 12 fields. In 1940, 66 degrees were
awarded in 16 fields. In 1981-82 the total number of
graduate degrees awarded was 1,317 in more than 100
fields. The proportion of doctoral degrees has increased
steadily. In 1950, 18 Ph.D.s and 5 Ed.D.s were awarded.
In 1981-82 the total was 217 Ph.D.s and 20 Ed.D.s.

THE GRADUATE SCHOOL
ORGANIZATION AND HISTORY
The Graduate School consists of the dean, associate
dean, assistant deans, the Graduate Council, and the
graduate faculty. General policies and standards of the
Graduate School are established by the graduate faculty.
Any policy change must be approved by the graduate
deans and the Graduate Council. The Graduate School
is responsible for the enforcement of minimum general
standards of graduate work in the University and for the
coordination of the graduate programs of the various col-
leges and divisions of the University. The responsibility
for the detailed operations of graduate programs is vested
in the individual colleges, schools, divisions, and depart-
ments. In most of the colleges an assistant dean or other
official is directly responsible for graduate study in that
college.
The Graduate Council assists the dean in being the
agent of the graduate faculty for execution of policy
related to graduate study and associated research. The
Council, which is chaired by the graduate dean, con-
siders petitions and recommends the award of graduate
degrees. Members of the graduate faculty, who are
appointed by the dean with the approval of the Graduate
Council, fall into two categories in accordance with their
function: the Graduate Studies Faculty (GSF), who are
appointed to teach graduate courses and to direct
master's theses, and the Doctoral Research Faculty (DRF),
who are appointed in addition to direct doctoral disser-
tations. No staff member is expected to perform any of
these functions without having been appointed to the
graduate faculty, though temporary exceptions may be
made in unusual circumstances.
In the beginning the organization of graduate study was
very informal: Control was in the hands of a faculty com-
mittee which reported directly to the President. In 1910,
however, James N. Anderson, Head of the Department
of Ancient Languages, was appointed Dean of the Col-
lege of Arts and Sciences and Director of Graduate Work,
and in 1930 he became the first Dean of the Graduate
School. He was succeeded upon his retirement in 1938
by T. M. Simpson, Head of the Department of
Mathematics, who held the position until 1951. C. F.
Byers, Head of the Department of Biological Sciences
in the University College, served as Acting Dean from
June 1951 until August 1952 when he was succeeded
by L. E. Grinter, who came from the Illinois Institute of
Technology, where he had been Vice President, Dean
of the Graduate School, and Research Professor. Upon
becoming Acting Vice President in 1969, Dr. Grinter was
named Dean Emeritus of the Graduate School. He was
succeeded by Harold P. Hanson, who came to Florida
from the University of Texas, where he had served as
Chairman of the Department of Physics. In 1971, Dr.
Hanson was appointed Vice President for Academic
Affairs. Alexander G. Smith of the Department of Physics.
and Astronomy and a former assistant dean of the
Graduate School, served as Acting Dean until the
appointment of Harry H. Sisler. Dr. Sisler served as Chair-
man of the Department of Chemistry, Dean of the Col-
lege of Arts and Sciences, and Executive Vice President
of the University of Florida prior to being named Dean
of the Graduate School in March 1973. In September
1979, Dr. Sisler returned to teaching as Distinguished
Service Professor of Chemistry and F. Michael Wahl was
appointed Acting Dean. Dr. Wahl came to Florida from
the University of Illinois in 1969. He served as Professor
and Chairman of the Department of Geology from 1969
to 1973 when he was named Associate Dean of the
Graduate School. In June 1980 Francis G. Stehli became
Dean for Graduate Studies and Research. Dr. Stehli came
to Florida from Case Western Reserve University where
he had served as Samuel St. John Professor of Geology,
Chairman of the Department of Geology, and Dean of
Science and Engineering. In September 1982, Dr. Stehli
became Dean of the College of Geosciences at the
University of Oklahoma.
Graduate study at the University of Florida existed
while the University was still on its Lake City campus.
However, the first graduate degrees-two Master of Arts
with a major in English and a Master of Science with a
major in entomology-were awarded on the Gainesville
campus in 1906. The first programs leading to the Ph.D.
were initiated in 1930, and the first degrees were
awarded in 1934, one with a major in chemistry and the
other with a major in pharmacy. The first Ed.D. was
awarded in 1948. Graduate study has had a phenomenal
growth at the University of Florida. In 1930, 33 degrees
were awarded in 12 fields. In 1940, 66 degrees were
awarded in 16 fields. In 1981-82 the total number of
graduate degrees awarded was 1,317 in more than 100
fields. The proportion of doctoral degrees has increased
steadily. In 1950, 18 Ph.D.s and 5 Ed.D.s were awarded.
In 1981-82 the total was 217 Ph.D.s and 20 Ed.D.s.

ADMISSION TO THE
GRADUATE SCHOOL
Application for Admission.-Admission forms and
information concerning admission procedures may be
obtained from the Registrar and Admissions Office, 135
Tigert Hall. Prospective students are urged to apply for
admission as early as possible. For some departments
deadlines for receipt of admission applications may be
earlier than those stated in the current University Calen-
dar; prospective students should check with the appro-
priate department. Applications which meet minimum
standards are referred to the graduate selection commit-
tees of the various colleges and departments for approval
or disapproval.
To be admitted to graduate study in a given depart-
ment, the prospective student must satisfy the re-
quirements of the department as well as those of the
Graduate School. In some departments, available
resources limit the number of students that can be
admitted.
General Requirements.-The Graduate School, Uni-
versity of Florida, requires both a minimum grade average
of B for all upper-division undergraduate work and a
minimum Verbal-Quantitative total score of 1000 on the
.Aptitude Test of the Graduate Record Examination. For
some departments, and in more advanced levels of
graduate study, an undergraduate average or Graduate
Record Examination scores above those stated for the
Graduate School may be required. These criteria are on
file in the Office of the Graduate School. Some colleges
and departments require a reading knowledge of at least
one foreign language. Exceptions to the above require-
ments are made only when these and other criteria
including letters of recommendation are reviewed by the
department, recommended by the department, and
approved by the Dean for Graduate Studies and
Research.
Unqualified admission to the Graduate School is de-
pendent upon the presentation of a baccalaureate degree
from an accredited college or university. No application
will be considered unless the complete official transcript
of all the applicant's undergraduate and graduate work
is in the possession of the Registrar, and no transcript
will be accepted as official unless it is received directly
from the registrar of the institution in which the work
was done. Official supplementary transcripts are required
as soon as they are available for any work completed
after application for admission has been made. In
general, no student who is a graduate of a nonaccredited
institution will be considered for graduate study in any
unit of the University.
The Board of Regents has also ruled that in admitting
students for a given academic year, up to 10% may be
admitted as exceptions. Students admitted as exceptions
under the 10% waiver rule must present both an upper-
division grade point average and Graduate Record
Examination Aptitude Test Score with their application
and meet other criteria required by the University, includ-
ing excellent letters of recommendation from trusted col-
leagues, satisfactory performance in a specified number
of graduate courses taken as postbaccalaureate students,
or practical experience in the discipline for a specified
period of time.
The University encourages applications from qualified
applicants of both sexes from all cultural, racial, religious,
and ethnic groups. The University does not discriminate
on the basis of handicap or age in admission or access
to its programs and activities.
ADMISSIONS EXAMINATIONS
Graduate Record Examination.-In addition to the
Aptitude Test of the Graduate Record Examination which
is required of all applicants, some departments encourage
6 / GENERAL INFORMATION
the applicant to submit scores on one or more advanced
subject tests of the Graduate Record Examination. The
scores on all tests taken will be considered in regard to
admission.
In the event that an applicant takes the GRE Aptitude
Test too late for the results to reach the Admissions Office
before the proposed date of entry, the student may apply
for conditional admission to the Graduate School with
postponement of the GRE Aptitude Test provided satisfac-
tory scores on the Miller Analogies Test (MAT) are sub-
mitted. The scores on the Miller Analogies Test will be
used as a partial basis for deciding whether conditional
admission may be granted. The Miller Analogies Test is
not a substitute for the Graduate Record Examination.
In cases where conditional admission is granted based
. on the scores of the Miller Analogies'Test, it is for one
term only. Satisfactory scores on the GRE Aptitude Test
must be submitted before a second registration will be
permitted.
The decision on postponing the Graduate Record
Examination Aptitude test will be based on the scores
on the Miller Analogies Test and the academic creden-
tials submitted. If these scores and academic credentials
are not satisfactory, submission of the results of the GRE
Aptitude test will be required before an admission deci-
sion is reached. It should be noted that the Miller
Analogies Test may not be repeated until at least one year
has elapsed.
Graduate Study in Business Administration.-Students
applying for admission to the Graduate School for study
in the College of Business Administration may substitute
satisfactory scores on the Graduate Management Admis-
sion Test (GMAT) for the Graduate Record Examination.
Students applying for admission to the Master of Business
Administration (MBA) program must submit satisfactory
scores on the GMAT. Applicants are requested to con-
tact the Educational Testing Service, Princeton, New
Jersey, for additional information.
Graduate Study in Law.-Students applying to the
graduate program leading to the degree Master of Laws
in Taxation must submit satisfactory scores on the Law
School Admissions Test (LSAT).
FOREIGN STUDENTS
All foreign students seeking admission to the Graduate
School are required to submit satisfactory scores on the
GRE Aptitude Test and on the TOEFL (Test of English as
a Foreign Language) with the following exceptions:
1. Foreign students whose native tongue is English or
who have studied at a United States college or univer-
sity for one year or more need not submit TOEFL scores
but must submit satisfactory scores on the Aptitude Test
of the Graduate Record Examination before their applica-
tions for admission can be considered.
2. Students educated in foreign countries who apply
for admission while residing outside the United States
may be granted, on the basis of hardship, a one semester
postponement of the GRE but not the TOEFL. Permis-
sion to register for subsequent semesters will depend
upon the submission of scores on the Graduate Record
Examination.
3. All foreign students applying for admission to the
Master of Business Administration program must submit
satisfactory scores from the Graduate Management
Admission Test before their applications' for admission
can be considered.
Foreign students, whose scores on the TOEFL and
verbal portion of the GRE are not indicative of adequate
writing skills, are required to write a short essay for
examination. If the skills demonstrated in the essay are
not acceptable for pursuing graduate work, the examina-
tion will be used as a diagnostic tool for placement in
appropriate courses which will not count toward a grad-
uate degree.
Graduate students whose native language is not English
must submit satisfactory scores on the Test of Spoken
English (TSE) to be eligible for teaching assistantships.
Applicants 'are requested to write the Educational
Testing Service, Princeton, New Jersey, for registration
forms and other information concerning TOEFL, TSE,
GMAT, and GRE.
HANDICAPPED STUDENTS
The University of Florida does not discriminate on the
basis of handicap in the recruitment and admission of
students, in the recruitment and employment of faculty
and staff, or in the operation of any of its programs and
activities, as specified by federal laws and regulations.
The designated coordinator for compliance with Section
504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, is Ms.
Mary Skorheim, Assistant Dean for Student Services, 129
Tigert Hall, 392-1261.
The Office of Student Services provides assistance for
disabled students. Services are varied depending on
individual needs and include, but are not limited to,
special campus orientation, registration assistance, help
in securing auxiliary learning aids, and assistance in
general University activities. Handicapped students are
encouraged to contact this office.
CONDITIONAL ADMISSION
Students who are not eligible for direct admission may
be granted conditional admission to the Graduate School.
Students may be granted conditional admission to defer
final admission decisions until requisite examination
scores or final grade records are available. Students may
also be granted conditional admission to ascertain their
ability to pursue graduate work at the University of
Florida if previous grade records or Graduate Record
Examination scores are on the borderline of acceptability.
Students granted conditional admission should be
notified by the department of the conditions under which
they are admitted. When these conditions have been
satisfied, the department must notify the student in
writing, sending a copy to the Graduate School. Work
taken while a student is in conditional status is applicable
toward a graduate degree.
Students failing to meet any condition of admission will
be barred from further registration.
POSTBACCALAUREATE STUDENTS
Students who have received a bachelor's degree but
have not been admitted to the Graduate School are
classified as postbaccalaureate students (6-) and may
enroll in courses for any of the following reasons: (1) to
validate undergraduate records from nonaccredited and
unevaluated colleges; (2) to provide a means for students
not seeking a graduate degree to enroll in courses-
included in this category.would be students who change
their professional goals or wish to expand their academic
background; and (3) to accommodate students who do
intend to enter a graduate program at some future date,
but need a substantial number of prerequisite courses.
GENERAL REGULATIONS / 7
Postbaccalaureate students may enroll in graduate
courses but the work taken will not normally be trans-
ferred to the graduate record if the student is subse-
quently admitted to the Graduate School. By petition in
clearly justified cases and in conformance with regula-
tions on courses and credit, it is possible to transfer up
to but no more than six semester hours of course work
earned with a grade of A, B +, or B.
Students in the College of Education who desire
postbaccalaureate classification to obtain teacher certifi-
cation must provide the college with a clear statement
of certification goals as a part of the requirements for
admission. Interested students should write to 134
Norman Hall or call 392-0721 for further information.
FACULTY MEMBERS AS GRADUATE
STUDENTS
University of Florida faculty, as designated by the
Florida Administrative Code, may not pursue graduate
degrees from this institution. Exceptions are made for the
Florida Cooperative Extension Service (IFAS) county per-
sonnel and the faculty of the P.K. Yonge Laboratory
School.
Under certain conditions, persons in sub-faculty posi-
tions (i.e., those holding titles of Assistant In or Associate
In) may pursue nonthesis master's degrees at the Univer-
sity of Florida. Any other exceptions to this policy must
be approved by the Graduate Council.
STATE UNIVERSITY SYSTEM
PROGRAMS
Traveling Scholar Program.-The State University
System affords, under the Traveling Scholar Program, an
opportunity for graduate students to take courses or con-
duct research activities at any of the universities in the
State System. Course work taken under the auspices of
the Traveling Scholar Program at another university in
the State System will apply for graduate credit at the stu-
dent's home campus. The deans of the graduate schools
of the state universities are the coordinators of the pro-
gram, and interested students should contact the dean
of the graduate school on their home campus for addi-
tional information.
Cooperative Degree Programs.-In certain degree pro-
grams, faculty from other universities in the State Uni-
versity System hold graduate faculty status at the Univer-
sity of Florida. In those approved areas, the intellectual
resources of these external graduate faculty members are
available to students at the University of Florida.
GENERAL REGULATIONS
It is the responsibility of the graduate student to
become informed and to observe all regulations and
procedures required by the program the student is pur-
suing. The student must be familiar with those sections
of the Graduate Catalog that outline general regulations
and requirements, specific degree program requirements,
and the offerings and requirements of the major depart-
ment. Ignorance of a rule does not constitute a basis
for waiving that rule. Any exceptions to the policies
stated in the Graduate Catalog must be approved by the
Dean for Graduate Studies and Research.
After admission to the Graduate School, but before the
first registration, the student should consult the college
and/or the graduate coordinator in the major department
concerning courses and degree requirements, defi-
ciencies if any, and special regulations of the department.
The dean of the college in which the degree program
is located or a representative must approve all regis-
trations.
STUDY LOADS
The University of Florida operates on a semester system
consisting of two 15-week periods and two 6-week sum-
mer terms. A credit under the semester system is equal
to 1.5 quarter credits.
Maximum registration for a full-time graduate student
is 18 credits. Minimum registration for a full-time graduate
student is 12 credits. The maximum and minimum regis-
trations are reduced for those students who are graduate
assistants or are otherwise employed. Guidelines for the
maximum and minimum registration for students on
appointment are provided in the Graduate Coordinator's
Manual. Any student on appointment who wishes to
register for more than the maximum or less than the
minimum credits must have the written permission of the
Dean for Graduate Studies and Research.
Students not on appointment are assumed to be full-
time and must register for a minimum of 12 credits. Part-
time status may be approved by the graduate coordinator
for students who are not pursuing a degree on a full-time
basis. Such exceptions must be clearly justified and the
approved registration must be commensurate with the
use of University facilities and faculty time.
COURSES AND CREDITS
Undergraduate courses (1000-2999) may not be used
as any part of the graduate degree requirements.
Undergraduate courses (3000-4999) may be used for
minor credit when taken as part of an approved graduate
program.
Courses numbered 5000 andabove are limited to
graduate students, with the exception described under
Undergraduate Registration in Graduate Courses.
Courses numbered 7000 and above are designed pri-
marily for advanced graduate students.
No more than five hours each of 6910 (Supervised
Research) and 6940 (Supervised Teaching) may be taken
by a graduate student at the University of Florida.
A complete list of approved graduate courses appears
in the section of this Catalog entitled Fields of Instruc-
tion. Departments reserve the right to decide which of
these graduate courses will be offered in a given semester
and the departments should be consulted concerning
available courses.
Correspondence Work.-No courses taken by cor-
respondence may be used for graduate credit.
Extension Work.-No extension courses may be used
for graduate credit except in programs for the M.Ag.,
M.Ed., M.A.E., M.A.T., M.S.T., M.H.Ed., M.P.E., and
Ed.S. degrees. Extension work taken at another insti-
tution, except through the Board of Regents Office of
Continuing Education, may not be transferred to the
University of Florida for graduate credit.
State Centers for Continuing Education.-Course
work is available in the graduate residence centers
established in the state. The amount of credit acceptable
for transfer to a degree program varies according to the
degree sought. Residence center work is not transferable
to all degree programs and the student should consult
the requirements for specific degrees in this Catalog for
additional information.
8 / GENERAL INFORMATION
Cooperative Education Program.-At the University
of Florida, the Cooperative Education Program is offered
primarily for undergraduate students. However, the
course, 4949, Cooperative Work Experience, one credit,
may be recommended to the Graduate School for minor
credit in master's degree programs provided this course
is above the minimum course requirements for the
degree.
GRADES
The only passing grades for graduate students are A,
B+, B, C+, C, and S. Grades of C+ and C in courses
below 5000 level are acceptable for credit toward
graduate degrees if the total program meets the B average
requirement. In 5000-level courses and above, C + and
C grades count toward a graduate degree if an equal
number of credit hours in courses numbered 5000 or
higher-have been earned with grades of B+ and A,
respectively. Grade points are not designated for S and
U grades; these grades are not used in calculating the
grade-point average.
Grades of S and U are the only grades awarded in
courses numbered 6910 (Supervised Research), 6940
(Supervised Teaching), 6971 (Master's Research), 6973
(Individual Project), and 7980 (Doctoral Research).
Additional courses for which S and U grades apply are
noted in the departmental offerings. With the exception
of those courses listed in the Graduate Catalog, no course
taken for an S/U grade may be used to satisfy the
minimum requirements for a graduate degree.
Deferred Grade H.-ln special situations where it is
not possible to assign a regular grade at the end of a term
a deferred grade (H) may be assigned. This grade may
be used only in special situations where the expected
unit of work may be developed over a period of time
greater than a single term. The grade of H is not a
substitute for a grade of S, U, or I. Courses for which H
grades are appropriate must be so noted in their catalog
descriptions, and must be approved by the Graduate Cur-
riculum Committee and the Graduate Council.
Incomplete Grades.-Grades of I (incomplete) re-
ceived during the preceding semester must be removed
by the deadline date stated in the University Calendar.
If the grade of I has not been changed accordingly, the
Office of the Registrar will record a grade of E for the
course. All grades of I must be removed prior to the
award of a graduate degree.
UNDERGRADUATE REGISTRATION
IN GRADUATE COURSES
With permission of the instructor and the college con-
cerned, an undergraduate student at the University of
Florida may enroll in graduate-level courses (5000 and
6000 level) if the student has senior standing and an
upper-division grade-point average of at least 2.8. After
a student has been accepted in the Graduate School, up.
to six hours of graduate-level courses earned with a grade
of A, B +, or B taken under this provision may be applied
toward a graduate degree at the University of Florida pro-
vided credit for the course has not been used for an
undergraduate degree and provided the transfer is made
as soon as the student is admitted to a graduate program.
CONCURRENT GRADUATE
PROGRAMS
A graduate student who.wishes to pursue degrees in
two programs concurrently must have the written
approval of the chairperson of each department involved
and the Dean for Graduate Studies and Research. If the
request is approved, the student must be officially
admitted to both programs through regular procedures.
If the student is approved to pursue two master's
programs, no more than six hours of course work from
one degree program may be applied toward meeting the
requirements for the second master's degree.
INFORMATION FOR VETERANS
The University of Florida is approved for the educa-
tion and training of veterans under all public laws in
effect; i.e., Chapter 31, Title 38, U.S. Code (Disabled
Veterans); Chapter 34, Title 38, U.S. Code (Cold-War G.I.
Bill); and Chapter 35, Title 38, U.S. Code (Children of
Deceased or Disabled Veterans).
Students who may be eligible for educational benefits
under any Veterans Administration program are urged
to contact the Veterans Affairs Office, 124 Tigert Hall,
as soon as they are accepted for admission.
Students expecting to receive benefits under one of
these programs must file an application with the Office
of the Registrar. No certification can be made until the
application is on file. Benefits are determined by the
Veterans Administration, and the University certifies
according to these rules and regulations.
The Registrar's Office maintains students' academic
records. A progress report is sent to each student at the
end of the term indicating grades, cumulative hours,
grade points, etc. For information on student conduct
policies, see Undergraduate Catalog.
UNSATISFACTORY SCHOLARSHIP
Any graduate student may be denied further registra-
tion in the University or in a graduate program should
scholastic performance or progress toward completion
of the planned program become unsatisfactory to the
department, college, or Dean for Graduate Studies and
Research. Failure to maintain a B average in all work
attempted is, by definition, unsatisfactory scholarship.
CHANGE OF MAJOR OR COLLEGE
A graduate student who wishes to change major or col-
lege must make formal application through the Office
of the Registrar and receive approval of the appropriate
department chairperson, college dean, and the Dean For
Graduate Studies and Research. Deadline dates for such
changes as specified in the current University Calendar
must be met.
FOREIGN LANGUAGE EXAMINATION
A foreign language examination is not required for all
degree programs and the student should contact the
graduate coordinator in the appropriate department for
specific information regarding any requirement of a
foreign language.
If a department requires that a student meet the foreign
language requirement by satisfactory performance on the
Graduate School Foreign Language Tests (GSFLT) in
French, Spanish, or German, the student should contact
the Office of Instructional Resources, 1012 General Pur-
pose Building A, for applications and payment of fees.
The examination times and dates are listed in the Univer-
sity Calendar. Educational Testing Service (ETS) no longer
administers this examination and does not accept appli-
cation fees or issue tickets of admission for these tests.
EXAMINATIONS
The student's supervisory committee is responsible for
the administration of the written and oral qualifying
examinations as well as the final oral examination for the
defense of the thesis, project, or dissertation. All members
of the supervisory committee must sign the appropriate
forms, including the signature pages, in order for the
student to satisfy the requirements of the examination.
Qualifying and final examinations for graduate students
are to be held on the University of Florida campus.
Exceptions to this policy are made only for certain
graduate students whose examinations are administered
at the Agricultural Research and Educational Centers or
on the campuses of the universities in the State Univer-
sity System that are approved for cooperative graduate
degree programs. These exceptions must be justified by
individual petitions to the graduate dean.
PROCEDURE FOR FINAL SEMESTER
It is the student's responsibility to ascertain that all
requirements have been met and that every deadline
is observed. Deadline dates are set forth in the Univer-
sity Calendar and by the college, school, or department.
Regular issues of Deadline Dates are available each
semester.
When the dissertation or thesis is ready to be put in
final form, the student should get the Guide For Prepar-
ing Dissertations and Theses from the Graduate School
Editorial Office and should request a records check in
the Student Information and Records Office to make cer-
tain that all requirements for graduation have been
fulfilled.
SWhen a student registers for the last term, the appro-
priate fees for the Library permanent binding of two
copies and for microfilming the dissertation must be paid
by the deadline specified in the University Calendar.
A student must be registered for an appropriate load
in the University for the term in which the final examina-
tion is given and at the time the degree is received. The
student should also apply for the degree during the final
term registration.

and above may be accepted only for minor credit when
taken as a part of an approved graduate program. The
program of course work for a master's degree must be
approved by the student's adviser, supervisory commit-
tee, or representative of the department. No more than
six credits from a previous master's degree program may
be applied toward a second master's degree.
10 / GENERAL INFORMATION
If a minor is'chosen, at least six credits of work are
required in the minor field. Two six-credit minors may
be taken with departmental permission. Minor work
must be in a department other than the major; in special
cases this requirement may be modified, but only with
the written permission of the Dean for Graduate Studies
and Research.
Degree Requirements.-Unless otherwise specified, for
any master's degree, the student must earn a minimum
of 30 credits as a graduate student at the University of
Florida, of which no more than six semester hours of
course work earned with a grade of A, B +, or B may
be transferred from institutions approved for this purpose
by the Dean for Graduate Studies and Research.
Transfer of Credits.-Only graduate level courses to
the extent of six semester hours earned with a grade of
A, B +,, or B may be transferred from an institution
approved by the Graduate School or from post-
baccalaureate work at the University of Florida. Credits
transferred from other universities will be applied toward
meeting the degree requirements but the grades earned
will.not be computed in the student's grade-point
average. Acceptance of transfer of credit requires
approval of the student's supervisory committee and the
Dean for Graduate Studies and Research.
Petitions for transfer of credit for a master's degree must
be made during the student's first term enrolled in the

analytical, problem-solving, and decision-making skills
essential for effective management. The emphasis is upon
developing the student's capacities and skills for business
decision making.
The curriculum is structured so students may extend
their knowledge in a specialized field by selecting an
approved concentration. Included in these concentra-
tions are accounting, computer and information sciences,
economics, finance, health and hospital administration,
management, management science, marketing, and real
estate. Several areas of specialization having different

satisfactory scores on the Graduate Management Admis-
sions Test (GMAT) as well as'transcripts for all previous
academic work. Significant work experience is con-
sidered favorably. Applicants whose native language is
not English are required to submit, in addition, scores
on the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL).
A heterogeneous student body is seen as an important
asset of the program. Accordingly the undergraduate
background of students includes a wide range of
disciplines. While the curriculum assumes no previous
academic work in managerial disciplines or business
administration, it is recommended applicants have a
background in introductory economics, statistics, and
calculus.
Students are admitted in the fall semester only. Applica-
tions should be made as early as possible during the
preceding academic year. Applications received after
May 1 will be considered on the basis of available space.

tion:-The Master of Business Administration degree with
a concentration in health and hospital administration is
offered by the College of Business Administration in con-
junction with the College of Health Related Professions.
In addition to meeting the usual requirements for admis-
sion to the Graduate School, students who apply for this
concentration must communicate directly with the Chair-
man of the Department of Health Services Administra-
tion who will arrange for a personal interview with
members of a faculty selection committee. The number
of students accepted for each class is limited and applica-
tions submitted after April 1 may not be considered.
MBA/JD Program.-A program of concurrent studies
leading to a Master of Business Administration and a Juris
Doctor is offered under the joint auspices of the College
of Business Administration and the College of Law. Both
degrees are awarded after a four-year course of study.
Students must take both the LSAT and the GMAT prior
to admission and meet the curriculum requirements of
both degrees.
MASTER OF EDUCATION
The degree of Master of Education is a professional
degree designed to meet the need for professional per-
sonnel to serve a variety of functions required in estab-
lished and emerging educational activities of modern
society. A thesis is not required.
A minimum of 36 credits is required in all master's pro-
grams with at least half of these credits in courses at the

a graduate student in courses offered on the Gainesville
campus of the University of Florida, including registra-
tion for at least six credits in a single semester.
MASTER OF ENGINEERING
A student seeking a master's degree in the field of
engineering may become a candidate for the Master of
Engineering degree with or without thesis, provided such
a candidate has a bachelor's degree in engineering from
an ABET-accredited curriculum or has taken sufficient
articulation course work to meet the minimum require-
ments specified by ABET. Students who do not meet
these requirements may become candidates for the
Master of Science degree, provided they meet depart-
,mental requirements for admission. The general intent
in making this distinction is to encourage those who are
professionally oriented to seek the Master of Engineer-
REQUIREMENTS FOR MASTER'S DEGREE / 13
ing degree, and those who are more scientifically
oriented and those who have science-based backgrounds
to seek the Master of Science degree.
Work Required.-The minimum course work required
for the master's degree with thesis is 30 credits which
may include up to six credits of the research course
numbered 6971 in all departments. At least 12 credits,
excluding 6971, must be in the student's major field of
study. A minimum of 32 credits of course work is
required, with at least 16 credits in the student's major
field for both of the above degrees without thesis. At least
50% of the required 32 credits must be in graduate level
courses, excluding those graded as S/U. Courses in the
major must be graduate level. If a minor is chosen, at
least five credits of work are required; two five-credit
minors may be taken. In addition, a multidisciplinary
minor in departments other than the major may be
authorized by the supervisory committee or program
adviser. Courses numbered 3000 and above may be
taken for the minor.
Degree Credit.-In order to qualify for course work
toward the Master of Engineering degree, a student must
first be admitted to the Graduate School at the Univer-
sity of Florida. The amount of course work toward this
degree that may be taken at an off-campus center will
depend upon the student's individual program and the
courses provided through the center.
Examinations.-A student seeking the Master of
Engineering degree with or without thesis is required to
pass a comprehensive oral and/or written examination,
administered on campus with all participants present, at
the completion of the course work. A student who is a
candidate for a nonthesis degree must take half the
course work from full-time University of Florida faculty
members and is required to pass a comprehensive writ-
ten examination administered on the University of Florida
campus by an examining committee recommended by
the Dean.of the College of Engineering and appointed
by the Dean for Graduate Studies and Research. At least
one member of the examining committee must be either
the student's program adviser or a member of the super-
visory committee. If a minor is taken, another member
selected from the Graduate Studies Faculty must be
chosen from outside the major department to represent
the student's minor.
The requirement for an on-campus comprehensive
written examination also applies to the nonthesis option
of the Master of Science degree for students in the Col-
lege of Engineering.
Examination requirements for the Master of Science
degree are covered in the section Master of Arts and
Master of Science.
MASTER OF FINE ARTS
The College of Fine Arts offers the Master of Fine Arts
degree with majors in art, music, and theatre. The
requirements for this degree are the same as those for
the Master of Arts with thesis except that a minimum of
48 credits is required, including six to ten credits in 6971
(Research for Master's Thesis). Students may elect to
substitute 6973 (Individual Project), creative work in lieu
of the written thesis. Students intending to pursue this
option should follow the general procedures below:
1. Using the college form, obtain approval of a pro-
posed project from the supervisory committee.
2. Include in the proposal a description of the nature
of the project, the method and sources of research
14 / GENERAL INFORMATION
material, and how the project will be recorded-e.g.,
slides, tapes, scripts, program notes, etc.
3. Projects must conform to departmental formats. To
insure future accessibility and for record keeping pur-
poses, a copy of the results must be deposited in a
designated library.
Two years of work in residence are usually necessary
to complete degree requirements.
Students must fulfill the Graduate School admission
requirements. In cases where the undergraduate degree
is not in the area chosen for graduate study, the student
must demonstrate a level of achievement fully equivalent
to the bachelor's degree in the graduate field concerned.
A candidate found deficient in certain undergraduate
areas will be required to remove the deficiencies by suc-
cessful completion of appropriate undergraduate courses.
In addition, candidates are required to submit slides
and/or a portfolio of their creative work, or to audition,
prior to being accepted into the program.
Art.-The MFA degree with a major in art is designed
for those who wish to prepare themselves as teachers
of art in colleges and universities and for those who wish
to attain a professional level proficiency in studio work
or advanced work in art history. Specialization is offered

Statistics degree are 36, including no fewer than 20
credits in the major field. Courses in the degree program
will be selected in consultation with the major adviser
and approved by the student's supervisory committee.
The work in the major field must be in courses approved
for graduate major credit. At least half the 36 credits must
be in graduate level courses. The student will be required
to pass two examinations: (1) A comprehensive written
examination, given by a committee designated for the
purpose, on material covered in statistics courses for first
year graduate students and (2) A final oral examination
given by the student's supervisory committee, covering
the entire field of study. Both examinations must be taken
on campus.
REQUIREMENTS FOR
THE DEGREE OF
ENGINEER
For those engineers who need additional technical
depth and diversification in their education beyond the
master's degree, the College of Engineering offers the
degree of Engineer.
This degree requires a minimum of 30 credit hours of
graduate work beyond the master's degree. It is not to
be considered as a partial requirement toward the Ph.D.
degree. The student's objective after the master's degree
should be the Ph.D. or the Engineer degree.
Admission to the Program.-To be admitted to the
program, students must have completed a master's
degree in engineering at an accredited institution
approved by the Graduate School, University of Florida,
and apply for admission to the Graduate School of the
University of Florida. The master's degree is regarded as
the foundation for the degree of Engineer.
Course and Residence Requirements.-A total registra-
tion in an approved program of at least 30 semester credit
hours beyond the master's degree is required. This
minimum requirement must be earned through the
University of Florida. The last 30 semester credit hours
must be completed within five calendar years.
Supervisory Committee.-Each student admitted to the
program will be advised by a supervisory committee con-
sisting of at least three members of the graduate faculty.
Two members are selected from the major department
and at least one from a supporting department. In addi-
tion, every effort should be made to have a representa-
tive from industry as an external adviser for the student's
program.
This committee should be appointed as soon as possi-
ble after the student has been adrhitted to the Graduate
School but, in no case, later than the end of the second
semester of study or the completion of 24 semester hours.
This committee will inform the student of all regula-
16 / GENERAL INFORMATION
tions pertaining to the degree program. The committee
is nominated by the department chairperson, approved
by the Dean of the College of Engineering, and appointed
by the Dean for Graduate Studies and Research. The
Dean for Graduate Studies and Research is an ex-officio
member of all supervisory committees and should be
notified in writing in advance of all committee meetings.
If a thesis or report is a requirement in the plan of study,
the committee will.approve the proposed thesis or report
and the plans for carrying it out. The thesis must be sub-
mitted to the Graduate School. The committee will also
conduct the final examination on campus when the plan
of study is completed.
Plan of Study.-Each plan of study is developed on
an individual basis for each student. Thus, there are no
specific requirements for the major or minor; each stu-
dent is considered as a separate case. If the plan of study
includes a thesis, the student may register for from 6 to
12 semester credit hours of thesis research in a course
numbered 6971.
Thesis.-The thesis should represent performance at
a level above that ordinarily associated with the master's
degree. It should clearly be an original contribution; this
may take the form of scientific research, a design project,
or an industrial project approved by the supervisory com-
mittee. Work on the thesis may beconducted in an
industrial or governmental laboratory under conditions
stipulated by the supervisory committee.
Final Examination.-After the student has completed
all work on the plan of study, the supervisory commit-
tee conducts a final comprehensive oral and/or written
examination, which also involves a defense of the thesis
if one is included in the program. This examination must
be taken on campus with all participants present.
REQUIREMENTS FOR
THE ED.S. AND ED.D.
The College of Education offers programs leading to
the degrees Specialist in Education, Doctor of Education,
and Doctor of Philosophy. These programs are available
in five areas: administration and supervision, curriculum
and instruction, foundations of education, counselor
education, and special education. The Specialist in
Education degree is awarded for a two-year program of
graduate study. The Doctor of Education degree requires
writing a doctoral dissertation. Foreign languages are not
required. The Doctor of Philosophy degree in the Col-
lege of Education is described under Requirements for
Sthe Ph.D.
Programs leading to these degrees are administered
through the individual departments in the College of
Education. It is the responsibility of tire department's
chairperson to carry out the policies of the Graduate
School and the graduate committee of the College of
Education. More specific information about the various
programs and departmental requirements may be
obtained from the individual departments. General infor-
mation or assistance is available through the Office of
Student Services in Education, Room 134, Norman Hall.
Admission to the Ed.S., Ed.D., and Ph.D. programs is
open only to persons who have met the following
requirements:
1. Successfully completed 36 credits of professional
course work in education. Applicants for admission to
advanced degree programs in the College of Education
who meet all the requirements except for successfully
completing 36 credits of professional education courses
may be given provisional admission and full admission
when they have completed the required 36 credits.
2. Presented a record of successful professional experi-
ence, the appropriateness of which will be determined
by the instructional department passing on the applicant's
qualifications for admission. In some instances, depart-
ments may admit students with the understanding that
further experience may be required before the student
will be recommended for the degree.
Admission to advanced degree programs is based on
the following criteria:
1. High scholastic average for previous graduate work
(3.5 grade-point average or above,, as computed at the
University of Florida, will be considered evidence of good
scholarship).
2. Satisfactory scores on the Aptitude Test of the
Graduate Record Examination (GRE).
The judgment concerning admission of an individual
student is made according to the above criteria by the
major department.
SPECIALIST IN EDUCATION
Primary emphasis in an Ed.S. program is placed on the
development of the competencies needed for a specific
job. Programs are available in the various areas of con-
centration within the Departments of Educational Admin-
istration and Supervision, Foundations of Education,
Counselor Education, and Special Education and within
the Division of Curriculum and Instruction.
To study for this degree, the student must apply and
be admitted to the Graduate School of the University of
Florida. All work for the degree must be completed
within seven years after admission to the Graduate
School.
The Ed.S. degree is awarded at the completion of a
planned program with a minimum of 72 credits beyond
the bachelor's degree or a minimum of 36 credits beyond
the master's degree. All credits accepted for the program
must contribute to the unity and the stated objective of
the total program. Students are tested (in no case earlier
than six months prior to receipt of degree) on both a writ-
ten and oral, examination, given on campus, by a com-
mittee selected by the department chairperson. A thesis
is not required; however, each program will include con-
tinuing attention to a research component relevant to
the professional role for which the student is preparing.
Students who enter the program with an appropriate
master's degree from another accredited institution must
complete a minimum of 36 credits of post master's study
to satisfy the following requirements.
1. Twenty-one credits in graduate level courses.
2. At least 12 credits in graduate level professional
education courses.
3. At least one semester of full-time residence (12
hours) on campus in Gainesville.
JTwelve credits for appropriate courses offered off-
campus by the University of Florida may be transferred
to the program. Six credits may be transferred from
another institution of the State University System or from
any institution offering a doctoral degree; however, credit
transferred from another institution reduces propor-
tionately the credit transferred from University of Florida
off-campus courses.
Students who enter the program with a bachelor's
degree only must, during their 72 credit program, satisfy
these requirements in addition to the requirements of
the Master of Education degree or its equivalent.
REQUIREMENTS FOR THE PH.D. / 17
DOCTOR OF EDUCATION
A doctoral candidate is expected to achieve under-
standing of the broad field of education and competence
in an area of specialization. Programs are available in
the various areas of concentration within the Depart-
ments of Educational Administration and Supervision,
Foundations of Education, Counselor Education, Special
Education, and the Division of Curriculum and Instruc-
tion.
Admission to a program of work leading to the degree
of Doctor of Education requires admission to the
Graduate School.
A minimum of 90 credits beyond the bachelor's degree
is required for the doctoral degree. All courses beyond
the master's degree taken at another institution, to be
applied toward the Doctor of Education degree, must be
taken at an institution offering the doctoral degree and
must be approved for graduate credit by the Graduate
School of the University of Florida.
Minors.-Minor work or work in cognate fields is
required. Minor work may be completed in any depart-
ment, other than the major department, approved for
master's or doctoral degree programs as listed in this
Catalog. If one minor is selected, at least 15 credits of
work therein will be required; if two minors are chosen,
one must have at least 12 credits of course work, the
other at least five credits.
Courses in physical education approved by the Col-
lege of Physical Education, Health, and Recreation and
the Graduate School as subject matter or content courses
may be used in the cognate work or as a minor.
In lieu of a minor or minors, the candidate may present
a suitable program of no fewer than 15 credits of cognate
work in at least two or more departments. If two fields
are included, there shall be no fewer than five credits
in either field. If three or more fields are included, the
five credit requirement for each field does not apply. This
program must have the approval of the student's super-
visory committee. The College of Education faculty will
expect the candidate to be prepared to answer questions,
at the time of the oral examination, in any of the areas
chosen.
Admission to Candidacy.-Admission to candidacy for
the degree of Doctor of Education requires successful
completion of the qualifying examinations and approval
of a dissertation topic. Recommendation to the Graduate
School for admission to candidacy is based on the action
of the supervisory committee. Application for admission
to candidacy should be made as soon as the qualifying
examination has been passed and a dissertation topic has
been approved by the student's supervisory committee.
Qualifying Examination.-The applicant is recom-
mended for the qualifying examination by the supervisory
committee after completion of sufficient course work.
The examination, administered on campus by the
student's major department, consists of (1) a general sec-
tion; (2) a field of specialization section; (3) examination
in the minor or minors, where involved; and (4) an oral,
examination conducted by the applicant's supervisory
committee.
If the student fails the qualifying examination, a re-
examination will not be given unless recommended for
special reasons by the supervisory committee and
approved by the Graduate School. At least one semester
of additional preparation is considered essential before
re-examination.
Research Preparation Requirement.-EDF 7486
(Methods of Educational Research) or its equivalent, for
which a basic course in statistics is a prerequisite, is a
minimum requirement in all programs. Additional
requirements vary with the department and with the stu-
dent's plans for doctoral research.
For information relating to Residence, the Supervisory
Committee, Time Lapse, the Dissertation, and the Final
Examination, the student is referred to the material
presented under the heading Requirements for the Ph.D.
These statements are applicable to both degrees.
REQUIREMENTS FOR
THE PH.D.
Doctoral study consists of the independent mastery of
a field of knowledge and the successful pursuit of
research. For this reason, doctoral students act, in large
measure, on their own responsibility; consequently, doc-
toral programs are more flexible and varied than those
leading to other graduate degrees. The Graduate Coun-
cil does not specify what courses will be required for the
Ph.D. degree. The general requirement is that the pro-
gram should be unified in relation to a clear objective
and that it should have the considered approval of the
student's entire supervisory committee.
COURSE REQUIREMENTS
The course requirements for doctoral degrees vary
from field to field and from student to student. The stu-
dent's supervisory committee has the responsibility for
recommending individual courses of study for each doc-
toral student subject to the approval of the Dean for
Graduate Studies and Research. A minimum of 90 credits
beyond the bachelor's degree is required for the doc-
toral degree.
Major.-The student working for the Ph.D. must elect
to do the major work in a department specifically
approved for the offering of doctoral courses and the
supervision of dissertations. These departments are listed
under Graduate Programs.
Minor.-With the approval of the supervisory commit-
tee, the student may choose one or more minor fields.
Minor work may be completed in any department, other
than the major department, approved for master's or doc-
tor's degree programs as listed in this Catalog.
If one minor is chosen, the representative of the minor
department on the supervisory committee shall suggest
from 12 to 24 credits as preparation for a qualifying
examination. A part of this background may have been
acquired in the master's program. If two minors are
chosen, each must include at least eight credits. Com-
petence in the minor area may be demonstrated through
a written examination conducted by the minor depart-
ment or through the oral qualifying examination.
Course work in the minor at the doctoral level need
not be restricted to the courses of one department, pro-
vided that the minor has a clearly stated objective and
that the combination of courses representing the minor
shall be approved by the Graduate School. This pro-
cedure is not required for a departmental minor.
SUPERVISORY COMMITTEE
Supervisory committees are nominated by the depart-
ment chairperson, approved by the dean of the college
concerned, and appointed by the Dean for Graduate
Studies and Research. The committee should be
appointed as soon as possible after the student has begun
18 / GENERAL INFORMATION
doctoral work, and in general no later than the end of
the second semester of equivalent full-time study. The
Dean for Graduate Studies and Research is an ex-officio
member of all supervisory committees and should be
notified in writing well in advance of all examinations
conducted by such committees.
Duties and Responsibilities.-Duties of the supervisory
committee follow:
1. To inform the student of all regulations governing
the degree sought. It should be noted, however, that
this does not absolve the student from the responsibility
of informing himself concerning these regulations. (See
Student Responsibility.)
2. To meet immediately after appointment to pass on
the qualifications of the student and to discuss and
approve a program of study.
3. To meet to discuss and approve the proposed
dissertation project and the plans for carrying it out.
4. To conduct the qualifying examination or, in those
cases where the examination is administered by the
department, to take part in it. In either event, no fewer
than five faculty members shall be present with the stu-
dent for the oral portion of the examination. This
examination must be given on campus.
5. To meet when the work on the dissertation is at least
one-half completed to review procedure, progress, and
expected results and to make suggestions for completion.
6. To meet on campus when the dissertation is com-
pleted and conduct the final oral examination to assure
that the dissertation is a piece of original research and
a contribution to knowledge. No fewer than five faculty
members shall be present with the candidate for this
examination, but only the members of the official super-
visory committee are required to sign the dissertation.
The dissertation must be approved unanimously by the
official supervisory committee.
Membership.-The supervisory committee for a can-
didate for the doctoral degree shall consist of no fewer
than three members selected from the graduate faculty.
At least two members will be from the department
recommending the degree, and at least one member will
be drawn from a different educational discipline. The
chairperson and at least one additional member of the
committee will be members of the Doctoral Research
Faculty of the University of Florida.
If a minor is chosen, the supervisory committee will
include at least one person selected from the graduate
faculty from outside the discipline of the major for the
purpose of representing the student's minor. In the event
that the student elects more than one minor, each minor
area may, at the discretion of the departments con-
cerned, be represented on the supervisory committee.
When a minor is not designated, the supervisory com-
mittee will include at least one member of the graduate
faculty from outside the discipline of the major. The
Graduate Council desires each supervisory committee
to function as a university committee, as contrasted with
a departmental committee, in order to bring university-
wide standards to bear upon the various doctoral
degrees.
In unusual cases the doctoral research may require the
guidance of a specialist from an area of study other than
that of the chairperson of the supervisory committee. In
such cases the department chair may recommend
appointment of a chairperson and a cochairperson, with
the latter being a member of the graduate faculty but not
necessarily the Doctoral Research Faculty. A cochairper-
son may also be appointed to serve during a planned
absence of the chairperson; in this case both the chairper-
son and the cochairperson must be appointed to the
Doctoral Research Faculty.
LANGUAGE REQUIREMENT
Any foreign language requirement, or a substitute
therefore, for the Ph.D. is established by the major depart-
ment with approval of the college. The student should
check with the graduate coordinator of the appropriate
department for specific information. The foreign language
departments offer special classes for graduate students
who are beginning the study of a language. See the cur-
rent Schedule of Courses for the languages in which this
assistance is available.
The ability to use the English language correctly and
effectively, as judged by the supervisory committee, is
required of all candidates.
RESIDENCE
Candidates for the doctoral degree must satisfy the
minimum residence requirements by completing beyond
the master's degree (1) 30 semester hours in one calen-
dar year, or (2) 36 semester hours in no more than four
semesters within a period of two calendar years on the
Gainesville campus of the University of Florida.
Candidates in the College of Agriculture may do their
research at certain branch stations of the University of
Florida Agricultural Experiment Station where adequate
staff and facilities are available.
QUALIFYING EXAMINATION
The qualifying examination, which is required of all
candidates for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, may
be taken during the third semester of graduate study
beyond the bachelor's degree.
The examination, conducted by the supervisory com-
mittee or the major and minor departments, is both writ-
ten and oral and covers the major and minor subjects.
At least five faculty members must be present with the
student at the oral portion. The supervisory committee
has the responsibility at this time of deciding whether
the student is qualified to continue work toward the
Ph.D. degree.
If a student fails the qualifying examination, the
Graduate School must be notified. A re-examination may
be requested, but it must be recommended by the super-
visory committee and approved by the Graduate School.
At least one semester of additional preparation is con-
sidered essential before re-examination.
An announcement of the scheduling of each student's
qualifying examination must be submitted in writing to
the Dean for Graduate Studies and Research. If the stu-
dent does not file for admission to candidacy immediately
after the qualifying examination, a written report of the
result of the examination must be filed with the Graduate
School Office.
Time Lapse.-Between the qualifying examination and
the date of the degree there must be a minimum of two
semesters if the candidate is in full-time residence, or a
calendar year if the candidate is on less than a full-time
basis. The semester in which the qualifying examination
is passed is counted, provided that the examination
occurs before the midpoint of the term.
ADMISSION TO CANDIDACY
A graduate student does not become an actual candi-
date for the Ph.D. degree until granted formal admission
REQUIREMENTS FOR THE PH.D. / 19
to candidacy. Such admission requires the approval of
the student's supervisory committee, the department'
chairperson, the college dean, and the Dean for
Graduate Studies and Research. The approval must be
based on (1) the academic record of the student, (2) the
opinion of the supervisory committee concerning overall
fitness for candidacy, (3) an approved dissertation topic,
and (4) a qualifying examination as described above.
Application for admission to candidacy should be made
as soon as the qualifying examination has been passed
and a dissertation topic has been approved by the stu-
dent's supervisory committee. A student should not
register for 7980 (Research for Dissertation) until he/she
is admitted to candidacy for a doctoral degree.
DISSERTATION
Every candidate for a doctoral degree is required to
prepare and present a dissertation that shows inde-
pendent investigation and is acceptable in form and con-
tent to the supervisory committee and to the Graduate
School. Dissertatons must be written in English. The Dean
for Graduate Studies and Research may approve excep-
tions to this rule on an individual basis for students
majoring in Romance languages and literatures.
Since all doctoral dissertations will be published by
microfilm, it is necessary that the work be of publishable
quality and that it be in a form suitable for publication.
The original copy of the dissertation must be presented
to the Dean for Graduate Studies and Research on or
before the date specified in the University Calendar. It
must contain an abstract and be accompanied by four
unpaged separate copies of the abstract, a letter of
transmittal from the supervisory chairperson, and all doc-
toral forms. After corrections have been made, and no
later than the specified formal submission date, the fully
signed copy of the dissertation, together with the signed
Final Examination Report,,should be returned to the
Graduate School. The original copy of the dissertation
,is sent by the Graduate School to the Library for
microfilming and hardbinding. A second signed copy,
reproduced on required thesis paper, should be given
to the office of the college dean or the graduate coor-
dinator for subsequent delivery to the Library for hard-
binding. The supervisory chairperson and the candidate
will each need a copy and, if required, another should
also be provided for the departmental library.
Publication of Dissertation.-All candidates for the
Ph.D. and Ed.D. degrees are required to pay the sum
of $30 to Student Financial Services, the Hub, for
microfilming their dissertations, and to sign an agreement
authorizing publication by microfilm.
Copyright.-The candidate may choose to copyright
the microfilmed dissertation for a charge of $20 payable
by a certified or cashier's check or money order to
University Microfilms attached to the signed microfilm
agreement form. To assure receipt of the valuable
Copyright Registration Certificate, candidates must give
permanent addresses through which they can always be
reached.
FINAL EXAMINATION
After submission of the dissertation and the comple-
tion of all other prescribed work for the degree, but in
no case earlier than six months before the conferring of
the degree, the candidate will be given a final examina-'
tion, oral or written or both, by the supervisory commit-
tee meeting on campus. An announcement of the
scheduled examination must be sent to the Dean for
Graduate Studies and Research. At least five faculty
members must be present with the candidate at the oral
portion of this examination. At the time of the defense
all committee members should sign the signature pages
and all committee and attending faculty members should
sign the Final Examination Report. These may be retained
by the supervisory chairman until acceptable comple-
tion of corrections.
Satisfactory performance on this examination and
adherence to all Graduate School regulations outlined
above complete the requirements for the degree.
Time Limitation.-All work for the doctorate must be

CLASSIFICATION OF STUDENTS-
FLORIDA OR NON-FLORIDA
(Section 6C-7.05, Florida Administrative Code)
(1) For the purpose of assessing registration and tui-
tion fees, a student shall be classified as a "Florida"or
"non-Florida" student.
(a) A "Florida student" is a person who has domicile
in and who shall have resided in the state of Florida
for at least twelve (12) consecutive months imme-
diately preceding the first day of classes of the
academic term in which the student enrolls. In deter-
mining residency, the university may require
evidence such as voter registration, driver's license,
automobile registration, location of bank account,
rent receipts or any other relevant materials as
evidence that the applicant has maintained con-
tinuous residency. Physical presence for the entire
twelve-month period need not be required so long
as the conduct of the student, taken in total,
manifests an intention to make Florida his or her per-
manent dwelling place. If such a student is a minor,
it shall mean that the parent or parents, or legal
guardian of the student shall have domicile in and
have resided in the state of Florida for the period
stated above. "Florida student" classification shall
also be construed to include students who held an
Immigration and Naturalization Form 1-151, Resi-
dent Alien Registration Receipt Card, or Cuban
Nationals or Vietnamese Refugees who are con-
20 / GENERAL INFORMATION
sidered as Resident Aliens, provided such students
meet the residency requirement stated above and
comply with subsection (2) below. The burden of
establishing facts which justify classification of a stu-
dent as a resident and domiciliary entitled to
"Florida student" registration rates is on the appli-
cant for such classification.
(b) In the application of this policy,
1. "Student" shall mean a person admitted to or
a person allowed to register at the institution on
a space available basis.
2. "Minor" shall mean a person who has not
attained the age of 18 years and whose disabilities
of minority have not been removed by reason of
marriage or by a court of competent jurisdiction.
3. "Domicile" for fee paying purposes shall
denote a person's true, fixed, and permanent
home and place of habitation. It is the place
where the applicant lives and remains and to
which he expects to return when he leaves,
without intent to establish domicile elsewhere.
4. "Parent" shall mean a minor's father or
mother, or if one parent has custody of a minor
applicant, it is the parent having court assigned
financial responsibility for the education of the stu-
dent; or if there is a court appointed guardian or
legal custodian of the minor applicant, it shall
mean the guardian or legal custodian.
5. The term "dependent student" as used in this
rule is the same as a dependent as defined in sec-
tions 151(e)(1)(2)(3) and (4) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1954. A copy of these provisions
in the Internal Revenue Code of 1954 is incor-
porated in this rule by reference.
.6. A "non-Florida" student is a person not
meeting the requirements of subsection (a) above.
(2) In all applications for admission or registration at
the institution on a space available basis, a Florida
applicant or the parent or legal guardian of a minor
applicant shall make and file with such application a
written statement, under oath, that the applicant is a
bonafide citizen, resident, and domiciliary of the state
of Florida, entitled as such to classification as a "Florida
student" under the terms and conditions prescribed
for citizens, residents, and domiciliaries of the state
of Florida. All claims to "Florida student" classifica-
tion must be supported by evidence as stated in
6C-7.05(1) if requested by the registering authority.
(3) A "non-Florida student" or, if a minor, his parent
or guardian, after having been a resident and
domiciliary of Florida for twelve (12) consecutive
months, may apply for and be granted reclassification
prior to the first day of classes of any subsequent term,
provided, however, that those students who are
nonresident aliens or who are in the United States on
a non-immigration visa will not be entitled to
reclassification. An application for reclassification as
a "Florida student" shall comply with provisions of
subsection (2) above. An applicant who has been
classified as a "non-Florida" student at time of original
enrollment shall furnish evidence as stated in
6C-7.05(1) to the satisfaction of the registering authority
that the applicant has maintained continuous residency
in the state for the twelve months required to establish
residence for tuition purposes. In the absence of such
evidence, the applicant shall not be reclassified as a
"Florida student." In addition, the application for
reclassification must be accompanied by a certified
copy of a declaration of intent to establish legal
domicile in the state, which intent must have been filed
with the Clerk of the Circuit Court, as provided by Sec-
tion 222.17, Florida Statutes. If the request for
reclassification and the necessary documentation are
not received by the registrar prior to the last day of
registration for the term in which the student intends
to be reclassified, the student will not be reclassified
for that term.
(4) Unless evidence to the contrary appears, it shall
be presumed by the registering authority of the institu-
tion at which a student is registering that
(a) The spouse of any person who is classified or is
eligible for classification as aa "Florida student" is
likewise entitled to classification as a "Florida stu-
dent." This provision will not apply in the case of
students who are nonresident aliens or who are in
the United States on a non-immigration visa.
(b) If an applicant's eligibility for classification as a
"Florida student" is based on the residency of the
spouse, the spouse shall make and file with the
application a written statement under oath, that said
person is the spouse of the applicant and a bonafide
citizen, resident and domiciliary of the state of
Florida, entitled as such to classification as a "Florida
student."
(c) No person over the age of 18,years shall be
deemed to have gained residence while attending
any educational institution in this state as a full-time
student, as such status is defined by the Board of
Regents, in the absence of a clear demonstration that
he has established domicile and residency in the
state, as provided under subsection (3) above.
(d) Any "Florida student" who remains in the state,
after his parent previously domiciled in Florida or
stationed in Florida on military orders removes from
this state, shall be entitled to remain classified as a
"Florida student" so long as his or her attendance
at a school or schools in Florida shall be deemed
"continuous." However, such student claiming con-
tinuous attendance must have been enrolled at a
school, college or university for a normal academic
year in each calendar year, or the appropriate por-
tion or portions thereof, from the beginning of the
period for which continuous attendance is claimed.
Such a student need not attend summer sessions or
other such intersession beyond the normal academic
year in order to render his attendance "continuous."
(5) Appeal from a determination denyng Florida stu-
dent status to any applicant therefore may be initiated
after appropriate administrative remedies are ex-
hausted by the filing of a petition for review pursuant
to Section 120.68 F.S. in the District Court of Appeal
in the appellate district in which the institution main-
tains its headquarters or where a party resides.
(6) Any student granted status as a "Florida student"
which status is based on a sworn statement which is
false shall, upon determination of such falsity, be sub-
ject to such disciplinary sanctions as may be imposed
by the president of the university.
(7) Special Categories-The following categories shall
be treated as Florida residents for tuition purposes if
adequate documentation is provided:
(a) A member of the Armed Services of the United
States who is stationed in Florida on active duty pur-
suant to military orders, the spouse and dependent
students.
(b) A veteran of the Armed Forces of the United
States of America with twenty (20) or more years of
active military service, including the spouse and
dependent students of such veteran's immediate
EXPENSES / 21
family, provided that the veteran is in Florida at time
of retirement or moves to Florida within one year
following retirement and files a declaration of Florida
domicile.
(c) Full-time elementary, secondary, and community
college faculty members under current teaching
contracts in the state of Florida and their spouses
and dependent students.'
(d) Full-time faculty, administrative and professional
and career service employees of the University
System and their spouses and dependent students.
(e) A student certified by his respective state for par-

including the spouse and dependent students.
(g) Florida residents who had their residency in
Florida interrupted by service in the U.S. armed
forces, the Peace Corps or other similar volunteer
organizations fostered by the United States govern-
ment shall be deemed to have had residency in
Florida during times of service in the aforementioned
organizations.
(8) Reciprocal Agreements. The Board of Regents may
enter into agreements with appropriate agencies and
institutions of higher education in other states and
foreign countries providing for the reciprocal exchange
of students, enrolled and prospective, in higher educa-
tional institutions to facilitate utilization of public higher
educational institutions in this State and other states
or countries. Such agreements may include provisions
for waiver or reduction of nonresident tuition for
designated categories of students and may include con-
tractual payments to such other state or country, sub-
ject to the availability of appropriations. Such
agreements shall have as their purpose the mutual im-
provement of educational advantages for residents of
this State and such other states or countries with whom
agreements may be made.
To establish Florida residence, a student applying for
admission should complete the residence affidavit on the
application form.
To change status from non-Florida, a student must
present to the Registrar's Office a copy of the Declara-
tion of Intent and the completed Residence Affidavit

to less than half-time status.
Loan maximums range from $1,000 to $5,000 an
academic year at interest rates from 5% to 9% annually.
The actual amount of each National Direct Loan or
institutional loan award is based on financial need as
determined by information the borrower provides on the
College Scholarship Service Financial Aid Form (FAF).
Applications for all loans except the Guaranteed Student
Loan (GSL) should be sent to the Office for Student Finan-
cial Affairs, 111 Anderson Hall, between January 1 and
March 1 for loans for the following year. Applications
submitted after March 1 will be considered only if funds
remain.
The Guaranteed Student Loan Program has no
deadlines, but students should allow up to five months
to receive their loan checks. Borrowers need to obtain
a lender (bank, savings and loan, credit union, etc.) who
participates in the program. Applications are available
at the UF Insured Loan Department, 104 Anderson Hall.
Students interested in applying for a college or depart-
ment loan should consult their college for eligibility
requirements and application procedures.
Short-term loans are available to full-time students to
help meet emergency and temporary financial needs
related to educational expenses. Graduate students may
borrow up to $200 for the amount of their in-state tui-
tion, if they prove they can repay the loan. Interest is
computed at the rate 1% (12% per anndm) on the unpaid
balance from the date the loan is executed. A minimum
of one month's interest will be assessed if the loan is paid
in full within 30 days. Repayment is due on the first day
of the last month in the semester the money is borrowed.
Applications are available at 111 Anderson Hall two
weeks before classes start.

UNIVERSITY PRESSES OF FLORIDA
The University of Florida is host to the State Univer-
sity System's scholarly publishing facility. University
Presses of Florida. The goals of the systemwide publishing
program implemented by University Presses of Florida
are expressed in Board of Regents' policy:
... to publish books, monographs, journals, and
other types of scholarly or creative works. The Press
shall give special attention to works of distinguished
scholarship in academic areas of particular interest
and usefulness to the citizens of Florida. The Press
shall publish original works by state university faculty
members, but it may also publish meritorious works
originating elsewhere and may republish out-of-print
works.
Each university's faculty publishing committee is inde-
pendently responsible for selecting works for publication
through the facilities of University Presses of Florida. At
the University of Florida, the University Press Board of
Managers oversees the locally determined publishing
program.
The purpose of the University of Florida Press is to
encourage, seek out, and publish original and scholarly
manuscripts which will aid in developing the University
as a recognized center of research and scholarship. In
addition to its broad range of state, regional, and Latin
American titles, the Press publishes books of general
interest and five separate series in Floridiana, geron-
tology, humanities, Latin American studies, and social
sciences.
The University of Florida Press Board of Managers, 15
scholars appointed by the president of the University,
determines policies of publication relating to the ac-
ceptance or rejection of manuscripts and the issuance
of author contracts. Each year the board examines
numerous manuscripts submitted not only by the Univer-
28 / GENERAL INFORMATION
sity faculty but by authors from all over the United States,
Europe, and Latin America.
University Presses of Florida is a member of the
Association of American University Presses and of the
Association of American Publishers, Inc.
Students and members of the faculty and staff are
cordially invited to visit the Press offices at 15 N.W. 15th
Street, adjacent to the campus.
INTERDISCIPLINARY GRADUATE
STUDIES PROGRAMS
INTERNATIONAL STUDIES
As the leading institution of higher education in the
State, the University of Florida has long been aware of
Florida's unique international position. By the beginning
of the century, the University had begun to focus its
attention on the Latin American nations. Advanced
degrees were given in Latin American studies as early
as 1927, and by the midcentury a School of Inter-
American Studies had been formed.
During the last two decades, the University of Florida's
commitment to international studies has expanded rap-
idly. This expansion has resulted in the creation of a
Center for Latin American rStudies, a Center for African
Studies, a Center for Tropical Agriculture, a program in
International Relations, and an English Language Institute
for speakers of other languages. Programs in Asian
Studies, Soviet and East European Studies, and West
European Studies have been added to the undergraduate
curriculum. The University of Florida has participated in
programs of assistance and development in many major
areas of the world: Africa, South America, Middle
America, and Southeast Asia. There has also been a cor-
responding increase in the number of faculty members
involved in teaching and in research within the field of
international studies.
As evidence of its commitment to international pro-
grams, the University opened, in January 1971, the $1.6
million federally funded Graduate School and Interna-
tional Studies Building, dedicated and named Linton E.
Grinter Hall. The modern four story building contains
60 faculty offices, 102 study cubicles, and 5 seminar
rooms, as well as the office of the Graduate School and
Sponsored Research.
. The expansion of efforts in these directions represents
a conviction on the part of the University that today's
students must be aware, in more than a superficial way,
of developments and trends outside our national
boundaries if they are to live in a world of peace and
harmony. International education is essential for the
citizenry and leaders of the twenty-first century-the
students of today.
The English Language Institute offers a noncredit,
nondegree program in English as a second language for
students with some knowledge of the language who wish
to increase their competence. The program, which may
be taken any semester of the academic year, emphasizes
the oral and written skills needed by students who plan
to attend a university in the United States. According to
their academic backgrounds and plans, students are
placed in either the Undergraduate Preparation Track or
the Graduate School Preparation Track. These tracks
allow the Institute to provide English and academic skills
training appropriate to the level at which the students
will ultimately be working. In addition to regular English
Language Institute testing, an institutional administration
of TOEFL is given near the end of each semester. Further
information is available from the Director, English Lan-
guage Institute, 313 Norman Hall.
The Center for African Studies, established with finan-
cial assistance under Title VI of the Higher Education Act,
is responsible for the direction and coordination of inter-
disciplinary instructional and research activities related
to Africa. It cooperates with departments in administer-
ing and staffing a coordinated Certificate Program in
African Studies. This program provides a broad founda-
tion for students preparing for teaching or other profes-
sional careers in which a knowledge of Africa is essential.
Graduate Fellowships and Assistantships. -Students ad-
mitted to the Graduate School in pursuit of a degree
through a specific department are eligible to compete
for graduate assistantships and Title VI (NRC) fellowships
through the Center for African Studies.
Extracurricular Activities.-The Center regularly spon-
sors conferences on African topics, and a colloquium
series-BARAZA-with invited lecturers. The Center has
a fairly wide ranging set of outreach activities addressed
to public school teachers as well as community colleges
and other universities. The Center is responsible for
editing the African Studies Review, which is the journal
of the African Studies Association. Two additional major
functions are the publication of the Bulletin of the
Southern Association of Africanists, and a traveling
African art exhibit.
Library Resources.-The Center supports directly as
well as through various departments selective library
acquisitions to meet the instructional and research needs
of the faculty and students. The Office of Instructional
Resources holds a number of educational films on African
topics, and the audiovisual library of the Department of
Art holds approximately 5,000 African art slides.
African Art.-The University Gallery holds 121 pieces
of African sculpture, The Rosenbloom Collection, 37
pieces of African sculpture, is housed at the Florida State
Museum.
Graduate Degree Programs.-The African Studies
Center does not offer interdisciplinary graduate degrees.
With the cooperation of its participating departments,
it offers a Certificate in African Studies in conjunction
with the master's and doctoral degrees.
Requirements for the Certificate in African Studies with
a master's degree are (a) at least 18 credits of course work
in a departmental major, 15 of which should relate to
Africa; (b) 9 credits of course work related to Africa and
distributed in.at least two other departments; (c) SSA
3730; and (d) a thesis on an African topic.
Requirements for the Certificate in African Studies with
the doctoral degree are (a) the doctoral requirements of
the major department; (b) 18 credits of course work
related to Africa in two or more other departments; (c)
a dissertation on an African topic based on field work
in Africa; (d) knowledge of a language appropriate to the
area of specialization.
Inquiries about the various programs and activities of
the Center should be addressed to the Director, Center
for African Studies, 470 Grinter Hall.
International Relations, a field of specialization leading
to the M.A. and Ph.D. degrees, is offered in programs
through the Department of Political Science. In addition
to the M.A. and Ph.D. with a major in political science
which may emphasize international relations, the Univer-
sity offers an M.A. and Ph.D. with a major in interna-
tional relations. For the M.A. the requirements are the
same as for the M.A. in political science. For the Ph.D.
the student has the option of taking either 1) four fields
of political science and a single or composite minor, or
2) three fields of political science (plus two graduate
courses in a fourth field) and two minor fields or a com-
posite minor.
The Center for Latin American Studies is responsible
for directing and coordinating graduate training, research,
and other academic activities related to the Latin
American area.
Master of Arts Degree in Latin American Area
Studies.-The interdisciplinary area degree offered
through the Center can be pursued in two options. The
first is a traditional program which emphasizes training
and research focused on developing a greater apprecia-
tion and understanding of Latin America's cultures, tra-
ditions, and languages. Requirements for the major
concentration are 14 credits consisting primarily of Latin
American language or area courses in one department,
which may be agricultural and extension education,
anthropology, economics, food and resource economics,
geography, history, political science, Romance languages
(Spanish and Portuguese), or sociology.
The second alternative clusters course work and
research along a selected topical field, with the emphasis
placed on training in interdisciplinary problem-solving
methodologies and their application to contemporary
Latin American problems. Under this option, and
especially with regard to the training of students from
Latin America, an individualized program of instruction
is developed to build on prior professional or adminis-
trative experiences and prepare the individual for
technical and professional work in the home country.
Requirements for the major are 14 credits in an inter-
disciplinary, applied course of study focused on Latin
America which may include such fields as rural or urban
development, regional analysis, demography, social
change, tropical agriculture, migration, natural resource
management, health delivery, mass communications, or
museum studies and conservation.
Other requirements, common to both options, include
12 credits of Latin American language and/or area courses
in at least two other departments. Included in this
requirement are at least one semester of LAS 6938, a
thesis on a Latin American topic for which up to six
credits are given through registration in LAS 6971, and
a reading, writing, and speaking knowledge of a Latin
American language.
The M.A. with a program in Latin American Area
Studies is intended primarily as a terminal degree for
persons who are not aiming at a teaching career in tradi-
tional academic departments but who require either a
broad knowledge of Latin American cultures and
appropriate language competence or interdisciplinary,
problem-related, area-focused training for their profes-
sional career objectives. This program is so structured,
however, that students may move directly from it into
departmental Ph.D. programs without interrupting or
slowing down their academic progress.
Minimum requirements for admission to the program
are (1) a grade average of B (3.00) for all upper-division
undergraduate work; (2) a combined Verbal-Quantitative
score of at least 1000 on the Graduate Record Examina-
tion; (3) an adequate proficiency in reading, writing, aural
comprehension, and speaking of either Spanish or Portu-
guese. Students not meeting the required proficiency will
be required to take an appropriate remedial course.
Exceptions to the above requirements are made only.
when these and other criteria, such as letters of recom-
mendation, are reviewed by the Center, recommended
by the Center, and approved by the Dean for Graduate
Studies and Research.

specifically approved by the coordinator will be counted
toward the required 12 hours of Latin American
concentration.
Doctoral Program with a Certificate in Latin American
Studies.-The Center does not offer an interdisciplinary'
Latin American Area Studies degree at the doctoral level.
SHowever, it does provide a Certificate in Latin American
Studies which is awarded in conjunction with doctoral

campus of the University of Florida, including the Latin
American Collection of the main library, have Latin
American holdings totaling over 170,000 volumes as well
as important manuscript materials in the original, in
transcription, and on microfilm. In terms of subject
matter, holdings are strongest in history and the social
sciences, but increasing attention is being given to the
environmental sciences and to literature. In terms of
region, they are strongest in the Caribbean and circum-
30 / GENERAL INFORMATION
Caribbean, but Brazilian materials are being augmented
rapidly.
Other Activities.-The Center sponsors conferences
and colloquia on Latin American topics, supports
publication of scholarly books, monographs, and papers,
and cooperates with other University units in conduct-
ing developmental programs in Latin America.

environment and its development.
Minor in Tropical Agriculture.-An interdisciplinary
minor in tropical agriculture may be planned at both the
master's and doctoral levels by students majoring in
agriculture, forestry, and other fields where knowledge
of the tropics is relevant. The minor may include courses
treating characteristics of the tropics: its soils, water,
vegetation, climate, agricultural production, and the
language and culture of tropical countries.
Certificate Program.-The certificate in Tropical
Agriculture (CTA) is available for any student enrolled
at the University of Florida. The CTA requires a minimum
of 27 hours of appropriately selected courses with some,
and possibly all, of these hours in addition to the require-
ments for the current degree sought by the student.
Up to seven hours of research credit, or its equivalent,
may be applied towards CTA requirements when this
research and experience have a clear relationship to
agriculture in developing countries. In addition, candi-
dates must show a level of competence in an appropriate
foreign language, although language hours will not be
counted in the CTA.
The 27 hours of requirements are divided between
social sciences and agricultural sciences. Nine hours are
needed in social sciences, five of which must be area-
specific and four non-area-specific. The agricultural
sciences require 18 hours, consisting of 13 hours in
natural sciences and 5 in other agricultural sciences.
Each student will be assigned to an interdisciplinary
committee of three faculty members, one member being
replaced each year. This committee is responsible for
selecting the appropriate courses commensurate with the
individual student's background. Students interested in
this program should consult the Dean for Resident
Instruction in the College of Agriculture.
Research.-The Center provides research grants to
faculty members and their graduate students and assists
in the coordination of interdisciplinary research funded
elsewhere. Development assistance contracts in
agriculture and related fields frequently have research
components.
Student Support.-Students within the College of
Agriculture and the School of Forest Resources and Con-
servation pursuing a minor in tropical agriculture are eligi-
ble for research grants awarded by the Center through
academic departments.
Other Activities.-The Center seeks a broad dissemina-
tion of knowledge about tropical agriculture through the
sponsoring of conferences, short courses, and seminars
featuring leading authorities on the tropics; publication
of books, monographs and proceedings; and through
acquisition of materials for the library and the data bank.
The Organization.for Tropical Studies (OTS) is a con-
sortium of major educational and research institutions
in the United States and abroad, created to promote
understanding of tropical environments and their intelli-
gent use by man. The University of Florida is a charter
member. Graduate field courses in Central America are
coordinated from the regional office in Costa Rica.
Courses with varying content are offered in the agricul-
tural sciences, earth sciences, forestry, geography, marine
science, meteorology, and terrestrial biology during the
spring and summer terms.
Additional courses are being planned. Students are
selected on a competitive basis from universities
throughout the country. A University of Florida graduate
student may register for eight credits in an appropriate
departmental course cross-listed with OTS, e.g., PCB
6357C or GEA 6109. The University of Florida does not
require tuition for OTS courses. OTS offers pilot-study
research grants to junior faculty and graduate students
who have had limited tropical experience. Further infor-
mation can be obtained from the OTS campus office
located in the Division of Biological Sciences, 223
Bartram Hall.
BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES
The Division of Biological Sciences is organized within
the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences to provide coor-
dination in the biological sciences. The Division, with
a staff from many disciplines, has organized graduate
studies in ecology and population biology, physiology,
tropical biology, evolutionary biology, marine biology,
paleobiology, and systematics. Each faculty is responsi-
ble for developing and supervising a core program in its
special area. In addition to cross-department programs,
the Division serves to coordinate biological science
wherever it exists in the University and to operate marine
research stations on the east and west coasts of Florida.
It represents the University in the Organization for
Tropical Studies, a consortium of 29 major U.S. univer-
sities which operates three tropical field stations and an
extensive field course program in Costa Rica. Many
biology graduate students here are able to participate in
these OTS graduate courses and expand their research
projects from the courses into thesis or dissertation topics.
The Departments of Zoology and Botany are the units
composing the Division of Biological Sciences.
The University of Florida Marine Laboratory at
Seahorse Key is located 57 miles west of Gainesville on
the Gulf Coast, 3 miles offshore, opposite Cedar Key.
Facilities include a 20x40-foot research and teaching
building, and a 10-room residence, with two kitchens
and a dining-lounge, which provides dormitory accom-
modations for 24 persons. The laboratory, which owns
a 32-foot research vessel equipped for offshore work and
several smaller outboard-powered boats for shallow
water and inshore work, is used for research by graduate
students from the various departments of the Division
of Biological Sciences.
The University of Florida Cornelius Vanderbilt
Whitney Marine Laboratory is in the city of Marineland,
15 miles south of St. Augustine and 80 miles west of
Gainesville. It is a research center dedicated to using
marine organisms for solving basic problems in experi-
mental marine biology and medicine. The Laboratory's
research scope comprises three areas-neurobiology;
membrane transport and xenobiotic toxicity; cell biology
and biochemistry. The facility is particularly well
equipped and situated for carrying out its mission. The
members of the Whitney Laboratory are full-time resi-
dent scientists; their faculty appointments are in
biological science departments of the Colleges of Liberal
Arts and Sciences and Medicine. Qualified graduate
students in those departments may carry out their
research at the Laboratory; fellowships are available.
Visiting investigators from Florida's State University
Systems and elsewhere are encouraged. The Laboratory's
program is coordinated with similar ones in the region
through the North Florida Association for Experimental
Marine Biology.
For further information, contact the Scientific Direc-
tor, C. V. Whitney Laboratory, Route 1, Box 121, St.
Augustine 32084.
Biophysics and bioengineering are interdisciplinary
areas which bring the concepts and methods of the basic
and applied physical sciences to bear upon biological
problems. Students may elect one or another of these
programs depending upon their backgrounds, the extent
of their interest and abilities in physical sciences, and their
concern with and competence in development of new
physics or engineering for use in biology.
One program is conducted under the supervision of
the Biophysics Council, which includes representatives
from the Colleges of Agriculture, Liberal Arts and
Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine. Several depart-
ments offer biophysics options at the graduate level. A
student interested in such an option must qualify for
graduate study in a department and satisfy the advanced
degree requirements established by the departmental
faculty. The Biophysics Council may then provide indi-
vidual guidance in curricular matters. For information on
this program, write to the representative of the Biophysics
Council in one of the following departments: Biochemis-
try and Molecular Biology, Chemical Engineering,
Chemistry, Electrical Engineering, Entomology and
Nematology, Materials Science and Engineering, Micro-
biology and Cell Science, and Zoology. The Council
representative in Physics should be consulted for advice
on courses and seminars in biological physics.
The Departments of Chemical and Electrical Engineer-
ing offer master's and doctoral study concentrations in
biochemical and biomedical engineering, respectively;
and advanced .study and research in biomaterials is
available in the Department of Materials Science and
Engineering. Write to the department concerned for
further information.
A specialization in biological physics is available within
the Department of Physics. Students in this option must
qualify for admission to graduate studies in 'physics and
satisfy all of the requirements for a regular advanced
degree in the department. In addition these students must
prepare themselves in organic and physical chemistry
and general biology, to the extent that they can study
and demonstrate knowledgeability in molecular biology,
cytology, and physiology. Research studies are generally
conducted in collaboration with scientists in biological
or medical fields on this campus or elsewhere. Doctoral
candidates must contribute to new knowledge in both
physics and biology, and demonstrate ability to select
for themselves significant new problems in biology. This
program is monitored by the graduate faculty in physics
and by two interdisciplinary advisory committees; of the
latter two, one is comprised of members from pertinent
physical and biological disciplines on this campus, and
the other of bioscientists from outside the University. For
further information write to the Biological Physics Pro-
gram, Department of Physics.
Attention should also be given to the specializations
of the Center for Sensory Studies, as described in the sec-
tion on Interdisciplinary Research Centers, since that
'Center includes other biophysical programs.

The locations of the Agricultural Research and Educa-
tion Centers are Belle Glade, Bradenton, Fort Lauderdale,
Homestead, Lake Alfred, Quincy, and Sanford. The
Agricultural Research Centers are located at Monticello,
Brooksville, Fort Pierce, Immokalee, Dover, Hastings,
Ona, Apopka, Marianna, Live Oak, Leesburg, and Jay.
A Center for Cooperative Agricultural Programs (CCAP)
in Tallahassee is jointly supported with Florida A & M
University.
The Florida Agricultural Experiment Station is
cooperating with the Brooksville Beef Cattle Research Sta-
tion, Brooksville, a USDA field laboratory, in its beef
cattle and pasture production and management programs
and with the National Weather Service, Ruskin, in the
agricultural weather service for Florida.
In addition to the above, research is conducted through
the International Programs Office, the Centers for Envi-
ronmental and Natural Resources Programs and for Rural
Development, the Florida Medical Entomological Labora-
tory at Vero Beach, and the Center for Aquatic Weeds.
DIVISION OF SPONSORED RESEARCH
The Division has two general functions: (1) the adminis-
tration and promotion of the sponsored research program
and (2) the support of the total research program of the
University in a manner which produces maximum benefit
to the University and the greatest service to the State of
Florida. All proposals for the sponsorship of research,
grants-in-aid, training grants, or educational service
agreements must receive the approval of the Dean for
Graduate Studies and Research. Subsequent negotiations
with potential contracting agencies or sponsors of
research projects are carried on under the Dean's
supervision.
The activities of the Division of Sponsored Research
are intended to stimulate growth and to assist in expand-
ing a balanced research program throughout the Univer-
sity. These activities are intimately related to the support
of the graduate program. They are also intended to
relieve principal investigators and departments of many
of the detailed administrative and reporting duties con-
nected with some sponsored research. The duties and
responsibilities of the Division are designed to assist prin-
cipal investigators in seeking sponsors for their projects.
In direct contacts between a principal investigator and
a potential sponsor, however, prior clearance should be
obtained from the Division to insure a uniformity in con-
tract requirements and to avoid duplication of negotia-
tions with the same sponsor.
The Dean for Graduate Studies and Research is admin-
istratively responsible to the Vice President for Academic
Affairs. Policies and procedures for the operation of the
Division are developed by a Board of Directors working
with the Dean within the general framework of the ad-
ministrative policies and procedures of the University.
The Graduate Council serves as adviser on scientific mat-
ters and on matters relating to the graduate program.
The law establishing the Division of Sponsored
Research enables the utilization of some recovered in-
direct cost funds in the support of innovative research.
The Board of Directors of the Division has the respon-
sibility for the award of these funds. For information write
the Dean for Graduate Studies and Research, Division
of Sponsored Research, 219 Grinter Hall.
FLORIDA ENGINEERING AND INDUSTRIAL
EXPERIMENT STATION
The Florida Engineering and Industrial Experiment Sta-
tion (EIES) developed from early research activities of the
engineering faculty and was officially established in 1941
by the Legislature as an integral part of the College of
Engineering. Its mandate is "to organize and promote
the prosecution of research projects of engineering and
related sciences, with special reference to such of these
problems as are important to the industries of Florida."
The College and the Station form an interlocking rela-
tionship with the EIES serving as the research arm of the
College. In this capacity the EIES fulfills its function of
conducting research on many of Florida's most signifi-
cant problems ranging from energy to water resources,
environmental issues to health-related activities. Of
course many of these problems transcend the State and
SPECIAL FACILITIES AND PROGRAMS / 33
are also of national concern. The Station has developed
a national and international reputation in many areas and
the faculty are at the forefront of their fields. This has
a major positive impact on the College since it makes
good teaching possible, exposes students to many impor-
tant engineering problems normally not encountered in
a college program, and helps the faculty better instill
students with the qualifications necessary for the suc-
cessful practice of their profession. Moreover, both
undergraduate and graduate students frequently find
employment on research projects.
The Station receives a small but important portion of
its operating funds from the State; thus funding base
results in a near 10to 1 return from contracts and grants
with government agencies, foundations and industrial
organizations. The Station has excellent facilities and
faculty in many diverse fields; a few such examples are
solar energy, bioengineering, energy conservation and
conversion, ceramics, new materials development,
photovoltaics, robotics, soil mechanics, transportation
research, coastal and oceanographic engineering,
microelectronics, air and water pollution control, nuclear
pumped lasers, systems analysis, fluid dynamics and
hydrology, technology for enhanced oil recovery, light-
ning research.
The Coastal and Oceanographic Engineering Labora-
tory, a unit of EIES, administered through the Depart-
ment of Coastal and Oceanographic Engineering,
conducts research on problems of the shoreline and of
coastal and inland waters and renders advisory service
to public agencies and industry. Interdisciplinary and
multidisciplinary research and graduate instruction are
closely coordinated and related to applications of the
coastal zone. Many graduate students are supported by
research programs of the COE Laboratory which include
(1) air-sea interaction and the generation of surface
waves; (2) scale models of inlets and shore structures;
(3) transportation of sediment by waves and currents; (4)
wave and current effects 'at offshore nuclear power
plants; (5) water temperature variations near power-
generating plants; (6) tidal variations in inland waters;
(7) littoral transport under wave action and many others;
and (8) coastal defense measures.
Laboratory research facilities include (1) a large area
for carrying out hydraulic model studies of coastal
phenomena; (2) an air-sea interaction facility to investi-
gate wave generation phenomena; (3) an internal wave
facility to investigate subsurface wave phenomena; (4)
a wave tank in which the effects of waves on structures,
sand motion, etc., can be investigated; and (5) a hydraulic
tilting flume for basic studies of the interaction of flows
with sediments. Field investigations, representing a
substantial portion of the research effort, are supported
by a mobile field station, three small boats, and a com-
plete range of tide recorders, current meters, sounding
and other auxiliary equipment.
INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH,
CENTERS
ACCOUNTING RESEARCH CENTER
The Center, established in 1976 as an integral part of
the School of Accounting, is supported by the Univer-
sity of Florida and research grants. Principal fields of
research include utilization of accounting information in
decision making, the association of accounting informa-
tion and security prices, human information processing
34 / GENERAL INFORMATION
in accounting contexts, accounting policy and rule
making, and the public policy consequences of account-
ing methods, rules and systems. The ARC serves as a
forum for interdisciplinary research .in the School.
Research results are published in professional account-
ing journals and in journals in other disciplines and are
also contained in a working paper series. The Center
holds frequent research seminars and organizes a bien-
nial national symposium on a current topic.:For infor-
mation, contact Director, Accounting Research Center,
255 Business Building.
INSTITUTE FOR ADVANCED STUDY OF THE
COMMUNICATION PROCESSES
The Institute for Advanced Study of the Communica-
tion Processes (IASCP) provides opportunities for Univer-
sity faculty and advanced students to carry out research
in the communication processes. The Institute is inter-
disciplinary, with membership drawn from the Colleges
of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Engineering, Medicine, Den-
tistry and Fine Arts. The University of Florida in
Gainesville is its headquarters, but it is structured to serve
the entire State University System. Currently there are
active participants from Florida State University, the
University of South Florida, and Florida International
University. The IASCP faculty also includes members
located at other universities and research laboratories
both within the continental United States and abroad.
The overall objective of IASCP is the maintenance of
a scientific center of excellence focused on human com-
municative behavior. The Institute's program includes
(but is not confined to) three broad areas: 1) the com-
municator(s), i.e., the physiological/physical/psychologi-
cal processes by which individuals generate and transmit
communicative signals (speech), 2) the respondentss,
and how receptive (hearing) and neural mechanisms
function to process signals within a variety of environ-
ments, and 3) the message, i.e., the codes and signs
(language) that constitute the sum total of these com-
municative messages. The IASCP faculty includes
students and scientists with a variety of interests and train-
ing. Expertise is represented by the phonetic sciences,
psychology, psycholinguistics, linguistics, psychoacous-
tics, auditory neurophysiology, electrical engineering,
computer sciences, physics, communication studies,
biocommunication, dentistry, and medicine.
As stated, IASCP's overall research effort is basically
an interdisciplinary one, but the focus of each investi-
gator's interests is the advancement of knowledge about
human communication. For information, write the Direc-
tor, Institute for Advanced Study of the Communication
Processes, 63 Arts and Sciences Building.
CENTER FOR AERONOMY AND OTHER
ATMOSPHERIC SCIENCES
The Center (ICAAS) is a community of scholars drawn
from many disciplines represented at the University of
Florida. Each scholar has an established professional
knowledge and research capability in the atmospheric
sciences or in physical, biological, or societal disciplines
that relate closely to our atmospheric environment. As
an interdisciplinary center, ICAAS promotes pure and
applied research in the atmospheric sciences and-pro-
vides machinery for translating research into forms rele-
vant to societal needs. The aeronomical research of the
Center deals with physical, chemical, and electrical
processes in the upper atmosphere, e.g., the stratos-
pheric, ionospheric, and thermospheric regions of the
earth. Other activities include a diverse range of tropos-
pheric and micrometeorological research as well as
biological, ecological, and technological research related
to the quality of the air we breathe. These activities are
dispersed widely in the Colleges of Liberal Arts and
Sciences, Agriculture, Engineering, Medicine, Law, and
Business Administration.
Interdisciplinary projects of ICAAS encompass 1)
studies of ultraviolet radiation levels reaching the ground,
and the possible influences of perturbations of the
stratospheric zone layer from supersonic transport efflu-
ents and chlorofluorocarbons; 2) influence of clouds on
ultraviolet levels penetration to earth's surface; 3) cor-
relation of ground level, ultraviolet and total ozone
measurements with National Aeronautics and Space
Administration NIMBUS 4 and 7 satellites measurements;
4) studies of community noise levels, architectural
building codes, and noise control for the Florida North-
east Regional Area; 5) evaluation of environmental im-
pact for locating Florida's electric generating plants; and
6) interplay of energy production needs relative to air
quality standards covering the technical, scientific,
medical, agricultural, psychological, economic, and legal
aspects of the energy/air quality problems.
Center emphasis on sulfur oxide effects on Floridians,
dose-response modeling, risk-benefits analysis, decision
modeling, and public policy alternatives resulted in the
report, "An Interdisciplinary Study of the Health, Social
and Environmental Economics of Sulfur Oxide Pollution
in Florida," published to assist the Florida Environmental
Regulation Commission on sulfur oxide regulations. Alter-
nate pollution abatement methodologies and their trans-
formation into public policy are being studied as a
followup to the study. The correlations between air
quality and property values in Florida have also been
studied by an interdisciplinary project team.
The Center's recent emphasis has been on the inter-
disciplinary assessment of the impact of increased coal
use. The scoping phase culminated in a:33-author book,
Coal Burning Issues, published by the University Presses
of Florida in February 1980. The most recent topic of con-
centration is coal conversion and acid rain.
The primary function of ICAAS is to provide coordina-
tion, direction, and focus to strengthen existing programs
and to expand them in directions that will help mitigate
the socio-technical problems arising from the degrada-
tion of our atmospheric environment. The Center will
also help the training of able students at the under-
graduate, graduate, and postdoctoral levels in various
pure and applied aspects of the atmospheric sciences.

CENTER FOR SENSORY STUDIES
Sensory studies deal with those systems which provide
an organism with information about its internal or
external environment. Traditionally, these topics range
from vision and hearing to biological clocks and homing
activity. Sensory studies at the University of Florida pro-
vide a special opportunity to the talented student because
of the unusual convergence of a strong faculty and a set
of unique facilities available within the University and
peculiar to the State of Florida and its regional location
in the United States.
The graduate studies envisioned by the faculty call for
broad training in an established academic discipline
(psychology, physiology, etc.), an introductory survey of
the senses, in-depth training in one or more sense
modalities (vision, hearing, chemical; etc.) and special
advanced studies in basic or applied techniques. The
intent is to develop a broad perspective as well as
necessary skills within an established academic discipline.
This provides the foundation upon which sensory studies
will be developed. Affiliation with an academic degree
SPECIAL FACILITIES AND PROGRAMS / 39
granting program will also provide an additional basis
for future professional affiliation. Since students will enter

The Department of Agronomy offers the Doctor of
Philosophy and the Master of Science degrees with
specialization in crop ecology, crop nutrition and
physiology, crop production, weed science, genetics,
cytogenetics, or plant breeding. Specializations for the
Doctor of Philosophy degree also include forest genetics
and physiology. A nonthesis degree, Master of Agricul-
ture, is offered with a major in agronomy.
Graduate programs emphasize the development and
subsequent application of basic principles in each
specialization to agronomic plants in Florida and
throughout the tropics. The continuing need for
increased food supplies is reflected in departmental
research efforts. When compatible with a student's
program and permitted by prevailing circumstances,
some thesis and dissertation research may be conducted
wholly or in part in one or more of several tropical
countries.
A science background with basic courses in mathe-
matics, chemistry, botany, microbiology, and physics is

comprehensive examination is offered each semester to
M.A. candidates. Knowledge of a foreign language may
be required by the student's committee. Satisfactory com-
pletion of a thesis is required for this degree. Students
specializing in archeology are required to complete nine
credits of field school before receiving the M.A.
Undergraduate credit hours earned in archeological field
schools may be used to fulfill all or part of this
requirement.
The Master of Arts degree without thesis prepares
students for positions in business and education, and in
public and private service agencies where anthro-
pological training in combination with others skills is of
practical use. The general requirements for this degree
option are ANT 6917, plus at least 40 graduate semester
credits with a minimum 3.0 GPA of which four credits
may be earned for a supervised internship. Students may
obtain expertise in two major areas of the discipline or
in one major discipline and one or two related
disciplinary subfields and/or minor(s) outsidethe depart-
ment. Knowledge of a foreign language may be required
by the student's committee. A supervised internship and
an interpretive report based on the internship are also
required for this degree.
The Master of Arts in Teaching is designed for students
who intend to teach in secondary schools or junior col-
leges. The required distribution of work leading to this
degree includes ANT 6917 and at least 36 graduate
semester hours with a minimum GPA of 3.0. These hours
must include at least six credits in a departmental intern-
ship in teaching and six credits in a minor. At least three
courses (which may be used as the minor) are required
in social foundations of education, psychological foun-
dations of education, and curriculum dealing with the
junior college. Knowledge of a foreign language may be
required by the student's committee. A written com-
prehensive examination is also required.
Students enrolled in the M.A. nonthesis option or
M.A.T. program who plan to apply to the Ph.D. program
in anthropology must meet the course distribution
requirements of the M.A. with thesis program and take
the M.A. with thesis comprehensive examination. Ad-
mission to the Ph.D. program generally requires an
honors pass in the comprehensive examination and a 3.5
graduate grade record.
The Doctoral Degree Program. Entry into the doctoral
program requires.M.A. level competence in general an-
thropology. Students must pass the M.A. comprehensive
examination at the University of Florida or have attained
a master's degree in anthropology or in a broadly
equivalent behavioral science field, either at another
university or at the University of Florida, and be evaluated
by the departmental comprehensive examination
committee.
The University of Florida requires candidates for the
Ph.D. to satisfy the minimum residence requirements by
completing beyond the master's degree 30 semester
hours in one calendar year or 36 semester hours in no
more than four semesters within a period of two calen-
dar years on the Gainesville campus. Courses completed
at other universities may be applied toward this degree
within the limitations outlined by the Graduate School
and the stipulations of the student's supervisory commit-
tee. Students may not register for dissertation research
(ANT 7980) until the semester in which they take the
qualifying examination.
In consultation with the supervisory committee, each
student selects three areas of specialization around which
course work and readings are arranged. A minimum of
90 semester hours beyond the B.A. is required, and a
minimum GPA of 3.0 must be maintained. In most cases,
students must achieve competency in a language other
than their native tongues. Candidates for the Ph.D. must
pass a doctoral qualifying examination and satisfactorily
complete a dissertation.
Students who wish departmental certification in
applied cultural anthropology must include in their
minimum hours: ANT 4266, 5479, 5485, 6038, 6707, and
6388; two area courses; ANT 5615 or 6619; two of the
following: ANT 5477, 5717, 6708, 6719; two of the
following: ANT 6428, 6447, 6478, 6725; and CAP 3800,
STA 6126 and 6127 or their equivalents. Students in this
program are expected to take a minimum of six courses
from anywhere in the university in their area of specializa-
tion (e.g., medicine, agriculture, education, architecture)
and must complete an internship in consultation with
the supervisory committee.
Study for the Ph.D. degree in anthropology at the
University of Florida by qualified master's degree re-
cipients at Florida Atlantic University and Florida State

The Department of Architecture offers graduate work
leading to the first professional degree, Master of Arts
in Architecture. Two years in residence are normally
required for completion. Prerequisite to admission to the
Master of Arts in Architecture program is an
undergraduate degree in architecture equivalent to the
University of Florida Bachelor of Design (Architecture)
or a program of studies deemed by the faculty to be
equivalent thereto. In addition to satisfying University
requirements for admission, applicants are required to
submit to the Department of Architecture, 231 ARCH,
University of Florida, the following: a portfolio of their
work in architecture and related fields; a statement of
intent and their objectives; and three letters of recom-
mendation from teachers or employers. This material
must be received by March 1 for consideration for
admission in the following fall. Applications for graduate
admission, including transcripts and GRE scores, must
be received in the Office of the Registrar by March 1,
also.
The graduate Professional Core I is taught only in the
fall semester, is required of all graduate students, and
is prerequisite to the remaining course work. After com-
pletion of Professional Core I, the student is expected
to pursue studies related to a special field of interest-
architectural design, architectural history, architectural
structures, environmental technology, or architectural
preservation. Concentration in this special field of interest
should prepare the student for architectural practice with
an emphasis upon professional team membership. Ad-
ditional information concerning programs for each of
these areas is available from the department. The
student's overall college experience, including

ment of Astronomy.
The Department of Astronomy offers graduate work
in astronomy and astrophysics.leading to the degrees of
Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy. Current
research fields include radio astronomy; astrometry and
data adjustment theory; cosmology; photometry of close
binaries and intrinsic variables; photometry of quasars
and galaxies; dynamical astronomy; structure,
kinematics, and dynamics of galaxies; planetary
magnetospheres; lunar occultation observations; radio
and optical instrumentation; and certain topics of
theoretical stellar astrophysics. Additional theoretical and
laboratory research directed toward conducting and
interpreting space experiments occurs in the depart-
ment's Space Astronomy Laboratory (Dr. J. L. Weinberg,
Director). The department is active in Voyager
radioastronomical.investigations of the magnetospheres
of Jupiter, Saturn, and Uranus.
Major Department Facilities: Rosemary Hill Observa-
tory, about 30 miles from Gainesville, houses a 76-cm
reflector (cameras, spectrograph, several micro-processor
based photometers, spectrum scanner), a 46-cm reflector
(camera, micro-processor based photometer), and one
terminus of a 30-mile-baseline radio interferometer. The
Radio Observatory, 50 miles from campus, is equipped
with low frequency (below 40 MHz) instrumentation
consisting of a 7-acre filled-aperture array, a number of
smaller antennas, advanced terminal equipment includ-
ing wide-band radio spectrographs, and the other
terminus of the 30-mile-baseline interferometer. Southern
Hemisphere observing facilities include the Mt; John
Observatory in New Zealand (operated jointly with the
Universities of Canterbury and Pennsylvania) and the
Maipu Radio Astronomical Observatory in Chile (in
cooperation with the University of Chile). Off-campus
facilities of the Space Astronomy Laboratory include a
microwave analog scattering facility, a night sky observ-
ing facility (Mt. Haleakala, Hawaii), a large coronagraph
(vacuum) test chamber, a space experiment assembly,
and a test facility including a laminar-flow clean room.
Facilities on campus include numerous mini- and micro-
computers (including a PDP1134), audio and video tape
processing equipment, iris photometer, micro-
densitometer, blink comparator and measuring engines.
For direct admission to the program, a student should
have an acceptable undergraduate degree in astronomy,
physics, or mathematics. Students with degrees in related
fields, such as engineering, may be admitted with the
understanding that certain foundation courses will have
to be taken. If it seems desirable, an individual with a
strong background in.physics may perform the graduate
research work in astronomy but take the qualifying
examination and degree in physics rather than
astronomy. All degree candidates are required as part
of their training to assist in the department's teaching
program. Complete details of the program and research
facilities may be obtained by writing the Chairman, 211

Courses are offered leading to the degrees of Master
of Science in Building Construction (thesis) and Master
of Building Construction (nonthesis). An individual plan
Sof study is prepared for each student to insure that the
student's goals are achieved within the broad policy
guidelines of the school. Specialization may be in areas
related to construction such as the construction manager
concept, planning and scheduling, cost control, high rise
construction, materials, techniques, and structural
concepts.
There is no foreign language requirement. The objec-
tives of this graduate program are to (1) provide advanced
construction courses, (2) provide opportunity for study
of construction problems and subjects in depth, (3)
broaden the student's base of knowledge and under-
standing in the construction areas, (4) prepare for
teaching, and (5) prepare for research.
All BCN graduate students are required to take an
examination on their ability to communicate properly
in the English language. Failure to make a satisfactory
score on this examination will result in a prerequisite
course or courses in English being added to the student's
plan of study. These prerequisite English courses are in
addition to the courses for the BCN graduate degree. The
examination must be taken during the first registration
period that the student is enrolled.
Holders of a four-year undergraduate degree in
Building Construction or its equivalent in related fields
may normally complete the requirement for the master's
degree in one academic year (two semesters) as full-time
students. "Equivalent in related fields" should include
studies in construction materials and methods, structures,

*These members of the faculty of Florida Atlantic University are also
members of the graduate faculty of the University of Florida and par-
ticipate in the doctoral program in the University of Florida Department
of Chemistry.
The Department of Chemistry offers the Master of
Science and Doctor of Philosophy degrees with speciali-
zation in analytical, organic, inorganic, or physical
chemistry. The nonthesis degree Master of Science in
Teaching is also offered with a major in chemistry.
New graduate students should have adequate under-
graduate training in inorganic, analytical, organic, and
physical chemistry. Normally this will include as a
minimum a year of general chemistry which may include
qualitative analysis, one semester of quantitative analysis,
one year of organic chemistry, one year of physical
chemistry, and one semester of advanced inorganic
chemistry. Additional courses in instrumental analysis,
advanced physical and organic chemistry are desirable.
Deficiencies in any of these areas may be corrected dur-
ing the first year of graduate study. Such deficiencies are
determined by a series of placement tests given prior to
registration, and the results of these tests are used in
planning the student's program.
The offerings CHM 5157, 5300, 6470, 6471, 6620,
6710, 6720, 6730, and CHS 5110 constitute a series of
core courses designed to provide graduate students with
a well-rounded background in the broad area of chem-
istry. Doctoral candidates are required to complete CHM
6470 plus three other core courses outside the major
area. Additional courses are taken upon recommenda-
tion of the student's supervisory committee or major pro-
fessor, so that the total number of credits in courses
acceptable for graduate credit is at least 28 hours. At least
16 semester hours of these courses must be in 6000 level
or higher courses in chemistry.
Candidates must serve not less than one year as teach-
ing assistants. This requirement will be waived only
when, in the opinion of the department, unusual cir-
cumstances justify such action.
A chemical-physics option is offered for students who
will be doing research in areas of physical chemistry
which require a strong background in physics. For this
option, the requirement in chemistry is CHM 6470, plus
two other core courses. In addition, a minimum of 15
credits in 4000 level or higher physics courses or a
minimum of eight such credits in physics and eight in
4000 level or higher mathematics courses is required.
Candidates for the master's degree are required to
complete any two core courses. The Master of Science
degree in chemistry requires a thesis. The nonthesis
degree Master of Science in Teaching is offered with a
major in chemistry and requires a written paper of
substantial length (30-50 pages) on an approved topic
pertaining to some phase of chemistry, under the course
CHM 6905.
