GENERAL INFORMATION 7
GENERAL INFORMATION HISTORY AND ORGANIZATION
In the earlier years of the institution the Master's degree was frequently conferred, but the work of the graduate students was in charge of the departments concerned, under the supervision of the general faculty. The Graduate School of the University of Maryland was established in 1918, and organized graduate instruction leading to both the Master's and the Doctor's degree was undertaken. The faculty of the Graduate School includes all members of the various faculties who give instruction in approved graduate courses. The general administrative functions of the graduate faculty are delegated to a Graduate Council, of which the Dean of the Graduate School is chairman.
LOCATION
The University of Maryland is located at College Park, in Prince George's County, Maryland, on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, eight miles from Washington and thirty-two miles from Baltimore. Washington, with its wealth of resources, is easily accessible by train, street car and bus.
The professional schools of Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy, Dentistry and Law are located in Baltimore, at the corner of Lombard and Greene Streets.
LIBRARIES
In addition to the resources of the University libraries the great libraries of the National Capital are easily available for reference work. Because of the proximity of these libraries to College Park they are a valuable asset to research and graduate work at the University of Maryland.
The library building at College Park contains a number of seminar rooms and other desirable facilities for graduate work.
THE GRADUATE CLUB
The graduate students maintain an active Graduate Club. Several meetings for professional and social purposes are held during the year. Students working in different departments have an opportunity to become acquainted with one another and thus profit by the broad cultural values derived from contacts with fellow students working in different fields.
GENERAL REGULATIONS
ADMISSION
An applicant for admission to the Graduate School must hold a bachelor's or a master's degree from a college or university of recognized standing. The applicant shall furnish an official transcript of his collegiate
8 GENERAL REGULATIONS
record which for unconditional admission must show creditable completion of an adequate amount of undergraduate preparation for graduate work in his chosen field. Application for admission to the Graduate School should be made prior to dates of registration on blanks obtained from the office of the Dean.
After approval of the application a matriculation card, signed by the Dean, is issued to the student. This card permits one to register in the Graduate School. After payment of the fee, the matriculation card is stamped and returned to the student. It is his certificate of membership in the Graduate School and should be retained by the student to present at each succeeding registration.
Admission to the Graduate School does not necessarily imply admission to candidacy for an advanced degree.
REGISTRATION
All students pursuing graduate work in the University, even though they are not candidates for higher degrees, are required to register in the Graduate School at the beginning of each semester. Students taking graduate work in the summer session are also required to register in the Graduate School at the beginning of each session. In no case will gradu- ate credit be given unless the student matriculates and registers in the Graduate School. The program of work for the semester or the summer session is arranged by the student with the major department and entered upon two course cards, which are signed first by the professor in charge of the student's major subject and then by the Dean of the Graduate School. One card is retained by the Dean. The student takes the other card, and in case of a new student, also the matriculation card, to the Registrar's office, where the registration is completed. Students will not be admitted to graduate courses until the Registrar has certified to the instructor that registration has been completed. Course cards may be obtained at the Registrar's office or at the Dean's office. The heads of departments usually keep a supply of these cards in their respective offices.
GRADUATES COURSES
Graduate students must elect for credit in partial fulfillment of the requirements for higher degrees only courses designated For Graduates or For Graduates and Advanced Undergraduates. Graduate students who are inadequately pz-epared for graduate work in their chosen fields or who lack prerequisites for minor courses may elect a limited number of courses numbered from 1 to 99 in the general catalogue, but graduate credit will not be allowed for these courses. Courses that are audited are registered for in the same way, and at the same fees, as other courses.
PROGRAM OF WORK
The professor who is selected to direct a student's thesis work is the student's adviser in the formulation of a graduate program, including suitable minor work, which is arranged in cooperation with the instructors.
GENERAL REGULATIONS 9
To encourage thoroughness in scholarship through intensive application, graduate students in the regular sessions are limited to a program of thirty credit hours for the year. If a student is preparing a thesis during the minimum residence for the master's degree, the registration in graduate courses should not exceed twenty-four hours for the year.
SUMMER GRADUATE WORK
Graduate work in the summer session may be counted as residence toward an advanced degree. By special arrangement, graduate work may be pursued during the entire summer in some departments. Such students as graduate assistants, or others who may wish to supplement work done during the regular year, may satisfy one-third of an academic year's residence by full-time graduate work for eleven or twelve weeks, provided satisfactory supervision and facilities for summer work are available in their special fields.
The University publishes a special bulletin giving full information con- cerning the summer session and the graduate courses offered therein. The bulletin is available upon application to the Registrar of the University.
GRADUATE WORK IN PROFESSIONAL SCHOOLS AT BALTIMORE
Graduate courses and opportunities for research are offered in some of the professional schools at Baltimore. Students pursuing graudate work in the professional schools must register in the Graduate School, and meet the same requirements and proceed in the same way, as do graduate students in other departments of the University.
The graduate courses in the professional schools are listed on pages 110 to 118.
GRADUATE WORK BY SENIORS IN THIS UNIVERSITY
Seniors who have completed all their undergraduate courses in this Uni- versity by the end of the first semester, and who continue their residence in the University for the remainder of the year, are permitted to register in the Graduate School and secure the privileges of its membership, even though the bachelor's degree is not conferred until the close of the year.
A senior of this University who has nearly completed the requirements for the undergraduate degree may, with the approval of his undergradu- ate dean and the Dean of the Graduate School, register in the under- graduate college for graduate courses, which may later be transferred for graduate credit toward an advanced degree at this University, but the total of undergraduate and graduate courses must not exceed fifteen credits for the semester. Excess credits in the senior year cannot later be transferred unless such prearrangement is made. Graduate credits earned during the senior year may not be used to shorten the residence period required for advanced degrees.
ADMISSION TO CANDIDACY FOR ADVANCED DEGREES
Application for admission to candidacy for the Master's and for the Doctor's degree is made on application blanks which are obtained at the
10 GENERAL REGULATIONS
office of the Dean of the Graduate School. These are filled out in duplicate and after the required endorsements are obtained, the applications are acted upon by the Graduate Council. An official transcript of the candi- date's undergraduate record and any graduate courses completed at other institutions must be on file in the Dean's office before the application can be considered.
Admission to candidacy in no case assures the student of a degree, but merely signifies he has met all the formal requirements and is considered by his instructors sufficiently prepared and able to pursue such graduate study and research as are demanded by the requirements of the degree sought. The candidate must show superior scholarship by the type of graduate work already completed.
Application for admission to candidacy is made at the time stated in the sections dealing with the requirements for the degree sought.
REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREES OF MASTER OF ARTS AND MASTER OF SCIENCE
Advancement to Candidacy. Each candidate for the Master's degree is required to make application for admission to candidacy not later than the date when instruction begins for the second semester of the academic year in which the degree is sought (or in case of a summer school student, at the end of the third summer's residence), but not until at least twelve semester course hours of graduate work have been completed. An average grade of "B" in all major and minor subjects is required.
Minimum Residence. A residence of at least one full academic year, or its equivalent, at this institution, is required.
By carrying approximately six semester hours of graduate work for four summer sessions at this institution, a student may fulfill the residence requirements for the degree of Master of Arts or Master of Science, pro- vided that the greater part of the thesis work can be done under direction during the periods between summer sessions. In some instances a fifth summer of residence may be required in order that a satisfactory thesis may be completed.
Course Requirements. A minimum of twenty-four semester hours, ex- clusive of research, with an average "B" grade in courses approved for graduate credit, is required for the degrees of Master of Arts and Master of Science. If the student is inadequately prepared for the required grad- uate courses, either in the major or minor subjects, additional courses may be required to supplement the undergraduate work. Of the twenty-four hours required in graduate courses, not less than twelve semester hours and not more than sixteen semester hours must be earned in the major subject. The remaining credits must be outside the major subject and must comprise a group of coherent courses intended to supplement and support the major work. Not less than one-half of the total required course credits for the degree, or a minimum of twelve, must be selected from courses numbered 200 or above. No credit for the degree of Master of Arts or Master of Science may be obtained for correspondence or exten- sion courses. The entire course of study must constitute a unified program approved by the student's major adviser and by the Dean of the Graduate
GENERAL REGULATIONS 11
School.
Transfer of Credit. Credit, not to exceed six hours, obtained at other recognized institutions may be transferred and applied to the course re- quirements of the Master's degree, provided that the work was of grad- uate character, and provided that it is approved for inclusion in the student's graduate program at the University of Maryland. This transfer of credit is submitted to the Graduate Council for approval when the student applies for admission to candidacy for the degree. Acceptance of the transferred credit does not reduce the minimum residence require- ment. The candidate is subject to final examination by this institution in all work offered for the degree.
Thesis. In addition to the twenty-four semester hours in graduate courses a satisfactory thesis is required of all candidates for the degrees of Master of Arts and Master of Science. It must demonstrate the stu- dent's ability to do independent work and it must be acceptable in literary style and composition. It is assumed that the time devoted to thesis work will be not less than the equivalent of six semester hours earned in grad- uate courses. With the approval of the student's major professor and the Dean of the Graduate School, the thesis in certain cases may be prepared in absentia under direction and supervision of a member of the faculty of this institution.
The original copy of the thesis must be deposited in the office of the Graduate School not later than two weeks before commencement. An abstract of the contents of the thesis, 200 to 250 words in length, must accompany it. A manual giving full directions for the physical make-up of the thesis is in the hands of each professor who directs thesis work, and should be consulted by the student before the typing of the manuscript is begun. Individual copies of this manual may be obtained by the student at the Dean's office, at nominal cost.
Final examination. The final oral examination is conducted by a com- mittee appointed by the Dean of the Graduate School. The student's adviser acts as the chairman of the committee. The other members of the committee are persons under whom the student has taken most of his major and minor courses. The chairman and the candidate are notified of the personnel of the examining committee at least one week prior to the period set for oral examinations. The chairman of the committee selects the exact time and place for the examination and notifies the other mem- bers of the committee and the candidate. The examination should be con- ducted within the dates specified and a report of the committee sent to the Dean as soon as possible after the examination. A special form for this purpose is supplied to the chairman of the committee. Such a report is the basis upon which recommendation is made to the faculty that the candidate be granted the degree sought. The period for the oral examina- tion is usually about one hour, but the time should be long enough to insure an adequate examination.
The examining committee also approves the thesis, and it is the candi- date's obligation to see that each member of the committee has ample opportunity to examine a copy of the thesis prior to the date of the examination.
12 GENERAL REGULATIONS
A student will not be admitted to final examination until all other re- quirements for the degree have been met. In addition to the oral examina- tion a comprehensive written examination may be required at the option of the major department.
REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF EDUCATION
Course Requirements. Thirty hours of course work are required, which may include courses in departments other than Education not to exceed one-half of the total thirty hours, such courses to be selected in conformity with the student's special needs as agreed upon by the student and his adviser. Of the thirty hours, not less than one-half must be on the 200 level.
At least four of the thirty hours must be seminar work, which shall include one or more seminar papers in the student's major field of con- centration in the Department of Education.
Included in the program must be courses in educational statistics and in procedure of educational research.
A maximum of six hours of graduate credit may be earned in a summer session and not more than six hours may be transferred from another institution.
The requirements in regard to advancement to candidacy, transfer of credits, and final oral examination are the same as for the degrees of Master of Arts and Master of Science.
REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY
Advancement to Candidacy. Candidates for the Doctor's degree must be admitted to candidacy not later than one academic year prior to the grant- ing of the degree. Applications for admission to candidacy for the Doctor's degree are filled out by the student and submitted to his major department for further action and transmission to the Dean of the Graduate School, not later than the first Wednesday in October of the academic year in which the degree is sought.
The applicant must have obtained from the head of the Modern Language Department a statement that he possesses a reading knowledge of French and German. Preliminary examinations or such other substantial tests as the departments may elect are also required for admission to candidacy.
Residence. Three years of full-time resident graduate study are required. The first two of the three years may be spent in other institutions offering standard graduate work. On a part-time basis the time needed will be correspondingly increased. All work at other institutions offered in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Ph.D. degree is approved by the Graduate Council, upon recommendation of the depart- ment concerned, when the student is admitted to candidacy for the degree.
The Doctor's degree is not given merely as a certificate of residence and work, but is granted only upon sufficient evidence of high attainments in scholarship, and ability to carry on independent research in the special field in which the major work is done.
GENERAL REGULATIONS 13
Major and Minor Subjects. The candidate must select a major and one or two closely related minor subjects. The minor work required varies from twenty-four to thirty hours at the discretion of the department con- cerned. The remainder of the required residence is devoted to intensive study and research in the major field. The amount of required course work in the major subject will vary with the department and the individual candidate. The candidate must register for a minimum of twelve semester hours of research.
Thesis. The ability to do independent research must be shown by a dis- sertation on some topic connected with the major subject. An original typewritten copy and two clear, plain carbon copies of the thesis, together with an abstract of the contents, 250 to 500 words in length, must be deposited in the office of the Dean at least three weeks before commence- ment. It is the responsibility of the student also to provide copies of the thesis for the use of the members of the examining committee prior to the date of the final examination.
The original copy should not be bound by the student, as the university later binds uniformly all theses for the general university library. The carbon copies are bound by the student in cardboard covers which may be obtained at the students' supply store; one is later sent to the university library and one to the Library of Congress. The abstracts are published by the university in a special bulletin.
A manual giving full directions for the physical make-up of the thesis is in the hands of each professor who directs thesis work, and should be consulted by the student before typing of the thesis is begun. Students may obtain copies of this manual at the Dean's office, at nominal cost.
Final Examination. The final oral examination is held before a com- mittee appointed by the Dean. One member of this committee is a repre- sentative of the graduate faculty who is not directly concerned with the student's graduate work. One or more members of the committee may be persons from other institutions who are distinguished scholars in the student's major field.
The duration of the examination is approximately three hours, and covers the research work of the candidate as embodied in his thesis, and his attainments in the fields of his major and minor subjects. The other detailed procedures are the same as those stated for the Master's examination.
RULES GOVERNING LANGUAGE EXAMINATIONS FOR CANDIDATES FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY
1. A candidate for the Doctor's degree must show in a written exami- nation that he possesses a reading knowledge of French and German. The passages to be translated will be taken from books and articles in his specialized field. Some 300 pages of text from which the applicant wishes to have his examination chosen should be submitted to the head of the Department of Modern Languages at least three days before the examina- tion. The examination aims to test ability to use the foreign language for
14 GENERAL REGULATIONS
lesearch purposes. It is presumed that the candidate will know sufficient grammar to distinguish inflectional forms and that he will be able to translate readily in two hours about 500 words of text, with the aid of a dictionary.
2. Application for admission to these tests must be filed in the office of the Department of Modern Languages at least three days in advance of the tests.
3. No penalty is attached to failure in the examination, and the unsuc- cessful candidate is free to try again at the next date set for these tests.
4. Examinations are held near the office of the Department of Modern Languages, on the last Wednesday in September and the first Wednesdays in February and June, at 2 p. m.
GRADUATE FEES
The fees paid by graduate students are as follows:
All Students:
A matriculation fee of $10.00. This is paid once only, upon admission to the Graduate School.

GENERAL REGULATIONS 15
FELLOWSHIP AND ASSISTANTSHIPS
Fellowships. A number of fellowships have been established by the University. The stipend for the University fellows is $400 to $500 for the academic year and the remission of all graduate fees except the diploma fee. Several industrial fellowships, with varying stipends, are also avail- able in certain departments.
Fellows are required to render minor services prescribed by their major departments. The usual amount of service required does not exceed twelve clock hours per week. Fellows are permitted to carry a full graduate pro- gram, and they may satisfy the residence requirement for higher degrees in the normal time.
Scholarships. A limited number of scholarships are available, carrying a stipend of from $150 to $200, without remission of fees. Scholarships are awarded on the basis of ability and of financial need. Scholars carry full time work and only minor services are required by the departments. Applications for fellowships and scholarships are made on blanks which may be obtained from the office of the Graduate School. The application, with the necessary credentials, is sent by the applicant directly to the Dean of the Graduate School. Applications which are approved by the Dean are forwarded to the departments, where final selection of the fellows and scholars is made. The awards of University fellowships and scholarships are on a competitive basis.
Graduate Assistantships. A number of teaching and research graduate assistantships are available in several departments. The compensation for these assistantships is $600 to $1000 a year and the remission of all gradu- ate fees except the diploma fee. Graduate assistants are appointed for one year and are eligible to reappointment. The assistant in this class devotes one half of his time to instruction or to research in connection with Experiment Station projects, and he is required to spend two years in residence for the Master's degree. If he continues in residence for the Doctor's degree, he is allowed two-thirds residence credit for each academic year at this University. The minimum residence requirement from the Bachelor's degree, therefore, may be satisfied in four academic years and one summer, or three academic years and three summer sessions of eleven or twelve weeks each.
Applications for graduate assistantships are made directly to the departments concerned, and appointments are made through the regular channels for staff appointments. Further information regarding these assistantships may be obtained from the department or college concerned.
COMMENCEMENT
Attendance is required at the commencement at which the degree is conferred, unless the candidate is excused by the Dean of the Faculty.
Application for diploma must be filed in the office of the Registrar before April 1 of the year in which the candidate expects to obtain a degree.
Academic costume is required of all candidates at commencement. Those who so desire may purchase or rent caps and gowns at the Students' Supply Store. Order must be filed before April 1, but may be cancelled later if the student finds himself unable to complete his work for the degree.
