tions of a student are judged by competent
authority, using established procedure, to be
detrimental to the interests of the university
community, that person may be required to
withdraw from the university.
It is university policy that smoking in

General Information
History
The history of the Graduate School at the University of
Maryland, College Park has been one of rapid, at times
almost explosive, growth. Established in 1919 with an
enrollment of 13, the Graduate School has developed into
one of the nation's largest. In the fall of 1977, there were
approximately 7,800 graduate students enrolled in the more
than 65 graduate programs and departments. In the
academic year 1977-1978, 334 doctoral degrees and 1,284
master's degrees were awarded.
The Graduate School has matched its tremendous
growth in size by an even more significant growth in its role
as a center for the advancement of knowledge. The
Graduate School has increasingly sought scholars of the
highest quality, and today it numbers among its faculty
men and women who have achieved national recognition
and eminence in their fields. Active in scholarship in every
area, students and faculty members of the Graduate School
have designed equipment for the lunar space flights, ex-
cavated the gardens in Pompeii, performed important
research in the unique ecological systems of the Chesa-
peake Bay, and won national awards for their creative work
in fiction, poetry, and the arts.
The history of the Graduate School has been a history of
growth in service as well as scholarship. Graduate pro-
grams at the University have always reflected the mission
of the School as a servant to the State of Maryland. That
mission is continued today more vigorously than ever in the
numerous programs, centers, and special research projects
through which graduate faculty and students address di-
rectly the needs of the residents of Maryland.
In the last two decades, the national impact of the
Graduate School has become of major importance as well,
with the ever increasing involvement of talented faculty and
graduate students in the work of the many federal agen-
cies, institutions, libraries, and programs in the nation's
Capital.
Finally, the University of Maryland Graduate School is
especially aware today of its mission to the wider com-
munity of man. The Graduate School not only has a large
number of students and faculty from other countries, but it
also is well represented in international conferences and
symposia by faculty members who participate on a regular
basis. In several divisions, there are specific projects and
programs undertaken jointly with foreign universities, and
the results of faculty research are published in international
journals.
The Graduate School today is active and vital, conscious
of its past growth and achievements and eager to develop
more fully its potential as a leading educational and
research institution. Its goal is to sustain and strengthen in
every area the intellectual quality and commitment to ser-
vice and significant scholarship that characterize the
foremost graduate institutions.
National Organizations
In order to shape and participate in national policies and
developments in graduate education, the Graduate School
maintains close contact with other graduate schools and is
a member of the following national organizations: the
Association of American Universities, the Association of
6 / General Information
Graduate Schools, and the Council of Graduate Schools in
the United States.
Major Role
The University of Maryland is keenly aware of the
challenges facing graduate education today. The Graduate
School has sought innovative and productive ways to adjust
to the problems created by restricting financial realities and
fluctuating opportunities for professionals in every field. In
addition, the Graduate School has channelled many of its
resources into a variety of academic services that meet the
increasing demands of our society on universities.
In all of its activities, however, the Graduate School is
guided by the belief that it can best serve society and res-
pond to current challenges by a consistent and firm com-
mitment to its traditional principles. Accordingly, the major
role of the Graduate School is to provide for the education
of students in the scholarly methods of intellectual inquiry
and critical analysis; to train them in the discipline and
skills necessary for beneficial research; and to foster in
them a dedication to creative thought and the search for
knowledge.
Not simply an extension of the colleges, schools, or divi-
sions, the Graduate School is specifically designed to
prepare those who will dedicate themselves to individual in-
quiry and service. To achieve this goal, it promotes the
freedom and intellectual environment necessary to stimu-
late research and scholarship of the highest quality for both
students and faculty.
Governance
The Graduate Faculty
In 1956 the Graduate Faculty adopted a formal constitution
to "provide a means for the Graduate Faculty to discharge
its functions with respect to educational policies and pro-
cedures of the Graduate School on this campus." That Con-
stitution, as amended in 1968 and 1974, continues to
govern the policies and procedures of the Graduate School
on the College Park Campus.
The Graduate Faculty, working through the Assembly
and the Graduate Council, establishes policies governing
admission to graduate study and minimum requirements to
be met by all students seeking advanced degrees in more
than sixty-five graduate departments and programs leading
to degrees awarded by the Graduate Faculty on the College
Park Campus. The faculties of the individual academic
departments and interdisciplinary graduate programs may
establish additional requirements for admission or for
degrees above the minima established by the Graduate
Council.
The Assembly of the Graduate Faculty consists of all full
and associate members of the Graduate Faculty who,
through their participation in research and graduate instruc-
tion, have displayed a capacity for individual research or
creative and scholarly work at the highest levels.
The Graduate Council consists of members of the Gradu-
ate Faculty elected by the Assembly, as well as appointed
and ex officio members. It is charged with the formulation
of the policies and procedures for the Graduate School of
College Park including admission standards, the review of
individual student programs, the review of all new programs
and courses submitted by members of the Graduate Facul-
ty, graduate student theses and dissertations, and the
periodic review of all graduate degree programs. It meets
approximately eight times a year to conduct its regular
business and may be called into special session as the
need arises.
In its work the Graduate Council is aided and advised by
ten standing committees. Included are committees on:
Academic Standards, Admissions, Elections, Fellowships,
Program Review, Graduate Faculty, Programs and Courses,
Publications, Research, and Student Life. Membership on
these committees is limited to members of the Graduate
Faculty and graduate students. Members are appointed by
the Dean for Graduate Studies for terms of three years.
Graduate Students
The value of student opinion and participation in deter-
mining matters of policy, procedure, and administration is
appreciated and encouraged. In addition to their appoint-
ment to the Committees of the Graduate Council, graduate
students serve on many divisional and departmental
committees.
Established in 1970, the Chancellor's Graduate Student
Advisory Council (CGSAC) meets periodically with the
Chancellor of the College Park campus and regularly on its
own to discuss a wide range of issues affecting the gradu-
ate community (e.g. the role and mission of higher educa-
tion; stipends for fellows, assistants, and researchers; part-
time graduate student problems; redress of grievances; soc-
ial activities; etc.). The Council also meets with ad-
ministrative leaders from all fields and divisions as perti-
nent to problem solving and alternatives. In addition, the
Council serves as a source of information to State Legis-
lators and members of the Board of Regents. Membership
is open to all interested students. For additional informa-
tion, contact the Office of the Dean for Graduate Studies.
Location
In location, faculty and students at the University of
Maryland enjoy the best of all possible worlds. Situated on
1,300 acres in Prince Georges County, the College Park
Campus is a part of the larger metropolitan area of
Washington, D.C., which is rapidly becoming the nation's
capital of cultural and intellectual activity as well as for
political power. The Kennedy Center for the Performing
Arts, the Filene Center, and the many fine area theaters
regularly present performances by the world's most exciting
and renowned artists. The Smithsonian Museums and the
National Gallery of Art, among others, sponsor standing
collections and special exhibits that attract national atten-
tion. In addition to cultural activities, the nation's Capital
provides interested students the opportunity to observe at
first hand the work of federal institutions; to sit in the
galleries of Congress; to watch the Supreme Court in ses-
sion; and to attend public Congressional hearings. The
possibilities for personal enrichment offered in this exciting
cosmopolitan area are indeed enormous.
Outside the metropolitan area, and just minutes from the
campus, the scene in Maryland countryside is pleasantly
rural. Maryland offers a great variety of recreational and
leisure activities in its many fine national and state parks,
from the Catoctin Mountains in Western Maryland to the
Assateague Island National Seashore on the Atlantic bound
Eastern Shore, all within a pleasant drive from the campus.
Historic Annapolis, the state capital, is only a short drive
away, and the city of Baltimore, with its rich variety of
ethnic heritages, its cultural and educational institutions,
and its impressive urban transformation, is only thirty miles
from College Park.
Special Research Resources
The College Park Campus is in the midst of one of the
greatest concentrations of research facilities and intellec-
tual talent in the nation, if not in the world. Libraries and
laboratories serving virtually every academic discipline are
within easy commuting distance. There is a steady and
growing interchange of ideas, information, technical skills,
and scholars between the university and these centers. The
libraries and facilities of many of these centers are open to
qualified graduate students at the university. The resources
of many more are available by special arrangement.
In the humanities, the Library)of Congress and the Folger
Shakespeare Library, with its extensive collection of rare
manuscripts, are among the world's most outstanding
research libraries. In addition, Dumbarton Oaks; the Na-
tional Archives; the Smithsonian Institution; the World
Bank; the National Library of Medicine; the National
Agricultural Library; the Enoch Pratt Free Library of Balti-
more; the libraries of the Federal Departments of Labor:
Commerce; Interior; Health, Education, and Welfare; Hous-
ing and Urban Development; and Transportation, and ap-
proximately 500 other specialized libraries are all within a
few minutes drive of the College Park Campus. These
resources make the University of Maryland one of the most
attractive in the nation for scholars of all disciplines.
The proximity of the Beltsville Agricultural Research
Center of the United States Department of Agriculture has
stimulated the development of both laboratories and oppor-
tunities for field research in the agricultural and life-
sciences. The National Institutes of Health offer unparal-
leled opportunities for collaboration in biomedical and
behavior research. Opportunities are also available for col-
laborative graduate study programs with other major
government laboratories, such as the National Bureau of
Standards and the Naval Research Laboratory.
The long-standing involvement of the State of Maryland
in the development of the commercial and recreational re-
sources of the Chesapeake Bay has resulted in the estab-
lishment of outstanding research facilities for the study of
marine science at the University of Maryland Center for En-
vironmental and Estuarine Studies, with research facilities
at Horn Point near Cambridge, at Crisfield, and at
Solomons Island, Maryland.
Campus facilities are also excellent for research in every
discipline. Work in the behavioral sciences, particularly in
learning, is centered in laboratories equipped for fully
automated research on rats, pigeons, and monkeys.
Exceptional research facilities in the physical sciences
include a 160 MeV cyclotron; two small Van de Graaff ac-
celerators; an assortment of computers, including a PDP
11/45, a UNIVAC 1108 and a UNIVAC 1100/41; a 10 KW
training nuclear reactor; a full scale low velocity wind tun-
nel; several small hypersonic helium wind tunnels; spec-

ialized facilities in the Institute for Physical Science and
Technology; a psychopharmacology laboratory; shock
tubes; a quiescent plasma device (Q machine) for plasma
research; and rotating tanks for laboratory studies of
meteorological phenomena.
Students also have access to research farms, green-
houses, and even laboratory-equipped vessels for research
in the Chesapeake Bay. The University also owns and oper-
ates one of the world's largest and most sophisticated
long-wavelength radio telescopes located in Clark Lake,
California and a cosmic ray laboratory located in New
Mexico.
Special Opportunities for Artists
Advanced work in the creative and performing arts at Col-
lege Park is concentrated in the Tawes Fine Arts Building
and the recently completed Art-Sociology Building. Creative
work is greatly stimulated by the close interaction that has
developed between the students and faculty of the Univers-
ity and the artists and scholars at the National Gallery, the
Corcoran Gallery, the Hirshhorn Museum, the Phillips Gal-
lery, the Museum of Modern Art, the Smithsonian Institu-
tion, as well as the musicians of the National Symphony
Orchestra and small musical groups. The Kennedy Center
for the Performing Arts and the Filene Center (Wolf Trap
Farm Park) have further enhanced the climate for creative
artists attending the University.
Outstanding work on campus in theater, dance, radio,
and television is aided by the proximity of the campus to
the National Theater, the Arena Stage, the Morris Mechanic
Theater, and numerous little theater groups in the Washing-
ton and Baltimore area. There is a frequent and steady in-
terchange of ideas and talent between students and faculty
at the University and both educational and commercial
radio and television media as a consequence of the large
professional staffs which are maintained in the Washington
area.
Libraries
The University library system includes major research
libraries on both the College Park and Baltimore Campuses.
The Libraries on the College Park Campus contain nearly
2,000,000 volumes, and they subscribe to more than 15,000
periodicals and newspapers. Additional collections of
research materials are available on microfilm, microfiche,
phonorecords, tapes, and films.
The Theodore R. McKeldin Library is the largest library
on campus and the principal library for graduate use.
Special collections include those of Richard Von Mises in
mathematics and applied mechanics; Max Born in the phys-
ical sciences; Thomas I. Cook in political science; Romeo
Mansueti in the biological sciences; Katherine Anne Porter;
Maryland; U.S. government publications (for which the
University is a regional depository); documents of the
United Nations, the League of Nations and other interna-
tional organizations, agricultural experiment station and ex-
tension service publications; maps from the U.S. Army Map
Service; the files of the Industrial Union of Marine and Ship-
building Workers of America; the Wallenstein collection of
musical scores; and research collections of the American
8 / General Information
Bandmasters Association, the National Association of Wind
and Percussion Instructors, and the Music Educators Na-
tional Conference. In addition, the collections include
microfilm productions of government documents, rare
books, early journals, and newspapers.
Within the East Asia Collection is the world's largest
repository of published and unpublished Japanese-language
materials from the Allied Occupation period.
Graduate students at UMCP are not served by McKeldin
alone. Several departments and colleges maintain special-
ized libraries for student use, with collections of impor-
tance to advanced students. These include the Library of
the College of Library and Information Services, which con-
tains materials for library science and a Juvenile Teaching
Materials Collection, and the Engineering and Physical
Sciences Library, which houses the Technical Report
Center with over 400,000 items from NASA, ERDA, and
other U.S. and foreign governmental agencies.
Our libraries have several exciting recent acquisitions
which will be of special interest to graduate students. One
new collection, to be known as the International Piano
Archives at Maryland, contains more than 17,000 tapes,
records and piano rolls, several thousand pieces of sheet
music and scores, and important documents, letters and
other materials relating to pianists Joseph Hofmann, Anton
Rubinstein and others.
The University has also recently acquired an exceptional
collection in astronomy: the entire library of the George-
town University Observatory, which contains numerous
catalogs, journals, and observatory bulletins dating back to
the 1800's. Much of this material has never been published
commercially, and when cataloguing is completed,
Maryland will have one of the most interesting and exten-
sive astronomy collections in the country.
Institutes, Centers, and Bureaus
Acknowledging the importance of an interdisciplinary ap-
proach to knowlege, the University maintains organized
research units outside the usual department structures.
These institutes, centers, and bureaus offer valuable oppor-
tunities for faculty and students to engage in research and
study in specialized areas and in public service activities.
Institute for Child Study: Director: H. Gerthon Morgan. In
its program the institute collects, interprets, and syn-
thesizes the scientific findings in various fields that are
concerned with human growth, development, learning and
behavior. The Institute offers graduate programs leading to
the Master of Education, Master of Arts, Doctor of
Philosophy and Doctor of Education degrees, and the Ad-
vanced Graduate Specialist Certificate in the area of
human development.
Institute for Criminal Justice and Criminology: Director:
Peter P. Lejins. The purpose of the Institute is to provide an
organizational and administrative unit for the interests and
activities of the University, its faculty and students in the
areas of the law enforcement, criminology and corrections.
Through the Institute, the University became a member of
the seven-university National Criminal Justice Educational
Development Consortium. The Institute offers the M.A.
degree with options in criminology or criminal justice and
the Ph.D. degree in criminal justice and criminology.
Institute for Physical Science and Technology: Director:
Joseph Silverman. The Institute for Physical Science and
Technology is a center for interdisciplinary research in pure
and applied science problems that lie between those areas
served by the academic departments. These interdisciplin-
ary problems afford challenging opportunities for thesis
research and classroom instruction. Current topics of in-
terest are: atomic physics, a wide variety of problems in
plasma physics, statistical mechanics of physical and living
systems, physics of the upper atmosphere and magneto-
sphere, fluid dynamics, physical oceanography, various
aspects of space and planetary science, theoretical and ap-
plied numerical analysis, control theory, epidemiology and
biomathematics, chemical processes induced by ionizing
radiation, and the history of science. They also include
analysis of a number of current problems of interest to
society such as mathematical models applied to public
health and many diverse efforts in basic mathematics.
Courses and thesis research guidance by the faculty of
the Institute are provided through the graduate programs in
the academic departments of the Division of Mathematical
and Physical Sciences and Engineering. The Institute spon-
sors a wide variety of seminars. Of principal interest are
general seminars in plasma physics, applied mathematics,
fluid dynamics, and in atomic and molecular physics. Infor-
mation about these can be obtained by writing the Director
or by calling (301) 454-2636.
Institute for Urban Studies: Director: Thomas P. Murphy.
The Institute aims at developing students knowledgeable
both in the technical competencies which constitute the
skills of "urban manpower" and in the professional
understanding of the urban community as an object of in-
terdisciplinary analysis.
The Institute for Urban Studies is a multi-campus inter-
disciplinary B.A. and M.A. degree granting program. It was
created to offer a teaching program to educate urban ad-
ministrators and specialists to manage existing com-
munities as well as to plan the development of new ones.
The Washington-Baltimore urban corridor provides an ex-
cellent teaching and research setting for faculty and
students. Since contemporary urban problems must be
solved by a multi-disciplinary approach, the master's pro-
gram supplements the Institute core courses with the
specialized problem solving methods of the diverse depart-
ments and professional schools of the University.
Center on Aging: Director: Jody K. Olsen. The Center on
Aging, focuses its efforts on stimulating interest in aging
within existing departments, colleges, and schools
throughout the University through research and teaching. In
addition, it has developed and maintains contact with
students in the general field of gerontology and helps them
to devise educational programs to meet their goals. The
Center sponsors an ongoing colloquium series on aging
and community training progrms based primarily on psy-
chosocial needs of the elderly. The Center and the College
of Library and Information Services also maintain the
Robert N. Butler Library, which contains an extensive col-
lection of Materials on aging and developmental psy-
chology. In conjunction with participating departments and
schools, the Center offers a certificate of concentration at
the master's degree level, which requires, in addition to for-
mal coursework, a practicum experience in aging.
Arithmetic Center Director: Robert Ashlock. The Arithmetic
Center facilitates a graduate program in elementary school
mathematics education — a program with an integrated
focus relating mathematics, psychology, and learning. The
faculty of the Center believe that crucial to the kind of
research effort envisioned is a milieu conducive to such an
effort — a physical-psychological locale in which students,
faculty, participating children, parents, and appropriate
visitors can become involved in the formal and informal in-
teractions so essential to integrative research.
Center for Educational Research and Development: Director
(UMCP): James Dudley. The Center is committed to provide
service to the State in the form of policy studies and
analysis and to provide/sponsor special educational training
programs and workshops for legislators, board members,
executive and legislative staff and agency personnel. The
entire range of University programs and personnel are com-
mitted to these two tasks in an effort to provide an inter-
disciplinary approach to the Center's research and develop-
ment activities. The Center acts as a facilitator and liaison
between the external public agencies and bodies and the
internal University resources. In so doing, it provides
research and project opportunities for faculty and graduate
students in education, the social sciences, business and a
variety of other fields, to engage in issues of educational
policy.
Computer Science Center Director: John P. Menard. The
Computer Science Center provides the academic commu-
nity of the University with ready access to large-scale com-
puter facilities. The Center's primary function is the effec-
tive operation, maintenance, and management of these
facilities so as to provide, as nearly as possible, uninter-
rupted computer services to the University community. The
Center also carries on an active program of basic and ap-
plied research in computer science.
Graduate students and faculty with programming prob-
lems can bring them to a group of programmer consultants
who work on an individualized basis to assist in applying
appropriate computer techniques. The Center also has a
staff of systems analysts to assist in debugging programs,
to adapt software developed elsewhere to use the Center's
equipment, and to devise original software to meet user
needs. There is a well-stocked program library, keypunch
and digitek services are available, and the Center offers
several non-credit short courses for new users or those
with specialized needs.
The Center's basic hardware consists of a UNIVAC 1108
Shared Processor System and a UNIVAC 1100/41 system,
along with other associated hardware. Two terminal rooms
and two keypunch areas with reproducer, interpreter and
lister are maintained in the Computer Science Center. Term-
inals owned or leased by other departments can also ac-
cess the Center's large-scale equipment.
Science Teaching Center. Director: John W. Layman. The
Science Teaching Center has been designed to serve as a
representative facility of its type to fulfill its functions of
undergraduate and graduate science teacher education,
science supervisor training, basic research in science
education, aid to inservice teachers and supervisors, and
consultative services, on all levels, kindergarten through
community college. Its reference library features relevant
General Information / 9
periodicals, science and mathematics textbooks, new cur-
riculum materials, and works on science subjects and their
operational aspects. Its fully equipped research laboratory,
in addition to its teaching laboratories for science methods
courses, provides project space for both faculty and
students.
Since 1962 the Science Teaching Center has served as
the headquarters for the activities of the Science Teaching
Materials Review Committee of the National Science
Teachers Association. The Information Clearinghouse on
Science and Mathematics Curricular Developments, the In-
ternational Clearinghouse for A.A.A.S, N.S.F. and UNESCO,
started here that year also. Within the center is gathered
the "software" and "hardware" of science education in
what is considered to be one of the most comprehensive
collections of such materials in the world.
Transportation Studies Center Director: Everett C. Carter.
Housed in the Division of Mathematical and Physical
Sciences and Engineering, the Center acts as a catalyst to
foster research and development and interdisciplinary
studies in transportation and to provide the means for in-
vestigators from different disciplines to work together on a
wide range of transportation related problems. Objectives of
the Center are to identify potential research projects by
establishing a dialogue and rapport with sponsoring agen-
cies and offices; to provide coordination between the var-
ious disciplines engaged in or having potential to engage in
transportation research and between potential research
sponsors and University researchers; to facilitate
cooperation between the University of Maryland and other
universities and industry, for joint undertakings; to promote
and, where appropriate, to supervise specific educational
programs of an interdisciplinary nature.
Among the areas identified as having interest and
research potential are transportation systems management,
transportation planning, public policy, public utilities,
systems economics, multiple uses of rights-of-way, mass
transit systems, conservation of energy, terminal siting,
bridge and pavement design, traffic flow coordination, traf-
fic safety and efficiency, transportation economics, aero-
space transportation, meteorological factors, noise control;
highway landscaping, environmental considerations, and air,
rail, water and highway alternatives.
Water Resources Research Center: Coordinator: Robert L
Green. The Water Resources Research Center sponsors and
coordinates research on all aspects of water supply, de-
mand, distribution, utilization, quality enhancement or
degradation, and allocation or management. A committee of
water resource research information users including
representatives from management, planning and regulatory
federal, state and local governments and citizens groups
has been formed to advise on research needs of Maryland.
Basic funding is from the annual allotment of the Water
Resources Research Act of 1964 as amended. The Center
also assists faculty members in developing matching fund
proposals and in seeking other research funds. Currently,
there are twelve research projects in progress in five dif-
ferent departments, including one in UMCEES and two at
UMBO
Bureau of Business and Economic Research: Director: Dr.
John H. Cumberland. The Bureau of Business and Eco-
nomic Research conducts research in the areas of regional,
urban and environmental economics. Projects are funded by
the University, and by State and Federal Government agen-
cies. Research is conducted by Bureau faculty members,
who hold joint appointments with the Department of
Economics, and by advanced graduate students working on
degree programs.
Bureau of Educational Research and Field Services: Direc-
tor: Gerald V. Teague. The Bureau of Educational Research
and Field Services was established to serve in a con-
sultative capacity in implementing research designs of
faculty members, graduate students and public school
systems. It acts as a coordinating agency between the
University and public school systems for both research and
field services. The Bureau also serves as a source of infor-
mation and assistance regarding federal and non-federal
research support that is available.
Bureau of Governmental Research: Director: Davis B.
Bobrow. The Bureau engages in research about Maryland
state and local government with a central focus on urban
affairs. It also makes numerous administrative studies at
the request of county and municipal governments.

tion concerned with the development and wise use of
ocean and Great Lakes resources. Composed of the
nation's major colleges, universities and institutions with
ocean programs, the Association works for the betterment
of the management and utilization of marine resources.
The University of Maryland was awarded its first institu-
tional Sea Grant funding by the Department of Commerce
for the calendar year 1977. Although forty-six universities,
colleges and non-profit organizations hold either regular or
associate memberships in SGA, Maryland is one of only
about a dozen who have comprehensive institutional pro-
grams and who are or are eligible to become Sea Grant
Colleges.
The goal of the CONSORTIUM ON HUMAN RELATION-
SHIPS IN EDUCATION is to involve all interested agencies
in the State of Maryland in the identification, development,

Fees and Expenses
Payment of Fees
All Students Who Pre-Register Incur a Financial Obligation
to the University. Those students who pre-register and
subsequently decide not to attend must notify the Registra-
tion Office, Room 1130A, North Administration Building, in
writing, prior to the first day of classes. If this office has
not received a request for cancellation by 4:30 p.m. of the
last day before classes begin, the University will assume
that the student plans to attend and accepts his financial
obligation.
After classes begin, students who wish to terminate
their registration must follow the withdrawal procedures
and are liable for charges applicable at the time of
withdrawal.
State of Maryland legislation has established a State
Central Collections Unit, and in accordance with State law
the University is required to turn over all delinquent ac-
counts to that office for collection and legal follow-up.

•The fees listed here are those charged at the time this Catalog went to
press and are offered as a general guide. They are subject to change. Fees
charged in a particular semester are published in the Schedule ol Classes
for that semester.
Determination of In-State Status
for Admission, Tuition and
Charge-Differential Purposes
An initial determination of in-state status for admission, tui-
tion and charge-differential purposes will be made by the
University at the time a student's application for admis-
sion is under consideration. The determination made at that
time, and any determination made thereafter shall prevail in
each semester until the determination is successfully chal-
lenged. The deadline for meeting all requirements for an in-
state status and for submitting all documents for reclas-
sification is the last day of registration for the semester the
student wishes to be classified as an in-state student.
The volume of requests for reclassification may necessi-
tate a delay in completing the review process. It is hoped
that a decision in each case will be made within ninety (90)
days of a request for determination. During this period of
time, or any further period of time required by the Universi-
ty, fees and charges based on the previous determination
must be paid. If the determination is changed, any excess
fees and charges will be refunded.
Persons who are interested in obtaining a copy of the
regulations or who wish assistance with their classification
should contact: The Graduate School Office of Graduate
Records, Room 2117, South Administration Building, Uni-
versity of Maryland, College Park, Maryland 20742 — phone
(301) 454-4004.
Financial Assistance
The University of Maryland recognizes the high cost of edu-
cation today and makes every effort to offer financial
assistance to qualified students through a variety of pro-
grams. Approximately one-half of all full-time graduate
students receive financial support, which includes remis-
sion of tuition fees, through teaching and research

Fellowships
A fellowship is an award bestowed on a student who
displays academic merit and promise to assist him in
devoting full time to scholarly pursuits. All applicants for
fellowships must be admitted to the Graduate School on a
full-time basis to be eligible. Inquiries and requests for ap-
propriate forms should be directed to the Fellowships and
Finance Office, Room 2126, South Administration Building,

The Maryland Fellowship Program, established by the State
Legislature and administered by the Graduate School, pro-
vides a limited number of fellowships to qualified ap-
plicants who are enrolled in doctoral programs and who
agree to teach in a public institution of higher learning in
the State of Maryland for a period of three years following
receipt of their doctoral degree, if a suitable position is of-
fered. The stipend is $2,500 for the academic year, with
remission of tuition. Although renewable annually, these
fellowships normally carry a three year non-renewable
tenure. Deadline for the application, which is available from
the Fellowship Office of the Graduate School is February
15.
The Graduate School Fellowships are awarded annually on
a competitive basis. The stipend is $1,000 for the academic
year, with remission of tuition. The standard application for
financial aid will serve as an application for this fellowship
program and must be submitted by February 1. Awards are
based upon the recommendation of the department
chairman.
Other Race Grants have been established to provide finan-
cial assistance to qualified graduate students who meet the
following criteria: 1. The applicant must be a member of a
minority race as defined by the racial composition of the
College Park Campus graduate student body. 2. The appli-
cant must be a legal resident of Maryland. 3. The applicant
must be admitted as a full-time graduate student in a
degree program. 4. The applicant must be a first-time
graduate student. 5. The applicantmust be able to demon-

and application materials are available from the Fellowships
and Finance Office of the Graduate School.
Assistantships
Offers of assistantships are made contingent upon the ap-
plicant's acceptance as a graduate student by the Graduate
School.
Graduate Teaching Assistantships are available to qualified
graduate students in many departments and programs. In
addition to remission of tuition, these carry ten-month
stipends ranging from $4,050 to $6,000. Applications for
assistantships should be made directly to the department

Loans and Part-Time Employment
National Direct Student Loan Funds are available to
graduate students of the University of Maryland. Applicants
must be United States nationals (citizens and permanent
resident status). Loans are approved based upon financial
need; the average loan is $1,500 per year. Repayment
begins nine months after the borrower leaves school, and
no interest is charged until the beginning of the repayment
schedule. Interest after that date is charged at the rate of
three percent per annum. Repayment of the loan, including
interest, is deferred during the time the borrower may be in
military service, the Peace Corps, VISTA, and ACTION, up
to a period of three years as well as during time of con-
tinued study on at least a half-time basis. Applications

Guaranteed Student Loan programs which have been
established for State of Maryland residents through the
Maryland Higher Education Loan Corporation, permit
students to borrow money from their hometown banks or
other local financial institutions. Graduate students in good
standing may borrow up to $5,000 per year, but state agen-
cies and individual banks may set their own limits up to
this amount. Notes may not bear more than seven percent
simple interest. Monthly repayments begin ten months after
graduation or withdrawal from school. The federal govern-
ment will pay the interest for eligible students while the
student is in school. Further details regarding this program
for Maryland residents may be secured from the Office of
Student Financial Aid. For prospective non-Maryland bor-
rowers unable to obtain information concerning the par-
ticular loan programs of their states, the Office of Student
Financial Aid can provide necessary information.
Student Emergency Loans are available, in case a student
has a financial emergency, from the Office of Student
Financial Aid. If the funds have not been depleted,
students may borrow with no interest up to $75.00 ($300.00
if the student specifies that the loan is to help pay
registration debts). Emergency loans must be repaid within
one semester.
AAUW Loan: The College Park Maryland Branch of
American Association of University Women has established
a small AAUW loan fund for graduate women students at
the University of Maryland. The amount loaned will be
based on need and on the amount of funds available.
Repayment of the loan shall begin within one year of leav-
ing the University, and the note will carry 4 per cent per
annum simple interest to be charged on the unpaid
balance, beginning when the borrower leaves the University.
For information and application forms, please contact the
Fellowship and Finance Office in the Graduate School.
The Office of Student Financial Aid, located in the North
Administration Building, serves without charge as a clear-
inghouse for students seeking part-time work and

welcome to visit the office and consult referral lists.
Work-Study Program. The University has in operation a Col-
lege Work-Study Program provided under Title 1-C of the
Economic Opportunity Act of 1964 and subsequent
amendments.
The purpose of the College Work-Study Program is to ex-
pand part-time employment opportunities for students who
are in need of the earnings from part-time employment in
order to continue their education. Preference is given to
students with the greatest financial need.
Employment under the College Work-Study Program is

gram are assigned to most of the departments on campus
and a few departments off-campus. Students may be
employed up to 40 hours per week during the summer,
semester break, and Spring holidays. During the school
year, to include examination week, students may work up to
15 hours per week. Minimum pay for graduate students is
$3.75 per hour during this school year.

Golden Identification Card
for Senior Citizens of Maryland
The purpose of this status is to make available without
charge courses and services of the University's campuses
to citizens who are 60 years of age or older, who are
residents of the State of Maryland and who are retired (a
retired person will be considered one who affirms that he is
not engaged in gainful employment for more than 20 hours
per week). People meeting these requirements may apply
for graduate admission, either as degree or nondegree
students, and must meet the same admissions criteria per-
taining to either category as do all applicants. Once ad-
mitted and having been issued the Golden Identification
Card, such persons may register for courses in any session,
General Information / 13
subject to the same restrictions as any other student, and
use the library and other campus facilities during the time
they are enrolled in courses. Tuition fees will be waived for
holders of the Golden Identification Card.
Veterans Benefits
Recent federal legislation has had significant impact on the
veteran-graduate student. People who originally were enti-
tled to 36 months of V.A. Educational Benefits now have a
total of 45 months of educational benefits. The new com-
plement of benefits can be used for graduate work.
See the Veterans Section of the current Schedule of
Classes for other current information.
Veterans Administration counselors work on campus full-
time to assist veterans, their dependents, and servicemen
with all V.A. related questions and problems. These
representatives can offer you help in getting your monthly
educational assistance checks, as well as other less known
but available benefits. Some of these are compensation for
service connected disabilities, guaranteed home loans, and
vocational rehabilitation services for disabled veterans.
Related information, such as facts on individual state
bonuses, removal of derogatory SPN codes from your
military discharge (DD214), and University of Maryland
Veterans Club activities, is also available.
The counselors are available on a walk-in-basis during
normal office hours in Room 1130 North Administration
Building. Telephone 454-5276.
Student Services
Housing
There is no on-campus housing provided for unmarried
graduate students. The Off-Campus Housing Office (Room
1295, Student Union, 454-3645), in cooperation with many of
the local landlords and apartment managers, maintains an
extensive and up-to-date list of vacancies under several
headings (Rooms, Unfurnished Apartments, Houses to
Share, etc.). This office can also provide students with con-
venient maps of the College Park area and with lists of
local motels, trailer and mobile home parks, real estate
agents, and furniture rental companies.
Current rates for housing in the area are about $85-$125
per month for a room in a private home, $175-$250 per
month for an efficiency or one bedroom apartment;
$250/month for a furnished apartment, $90-$1307month for
a shared apartment, and $300-$350/month for a two-
bedroom house.
The University itself maintains two apartment complexes
for married graduate students and for a limited number of
single graduate students. Both Lord Calvert Apartments and
University Hills Apartments are within walking distance of
campus, which means that there is usually a waiting list,
especially during the period immediately preceding the fall
semester. Priority for housing in these complexes is cur-
rently given to married full-time graduate assistants, then
married full-time graduate non-assistants.
Rent for a one-bedroom apartment is $150/month, with
two-bedroom apartments costing about twenty-five dollars
14 / General Information
more; a limited number of efficiencies are available to
single students for a slightly lower monthly rent. Students
must sign a one year lease and pay a security deposit of
$50 (payable when the applicant's name is added to the
waiting list). There is a nonrefundable application fee of $10
for adding a name to the waiting list. After the initial lease
expires, residence in the apartments is on a monthly basis.
Graduate students who maintain full-time status are permit-
ted to live in the apartments for a maximum of five years.
Information and applications for University-owned hous-
ing can be obtained from the Rental Office, 3424 Tulane
Drive, Hyattsville, Maryland 20783 (422-7445).
University Food Services
The University Food Service offers three dining contract op-
tions which are available to graduate students. One plan of-
fers the diner 19 meals per week, the second offers any 15
per week, and the third offers a choice of any 10 meals per
week. The 1977-1978 cost of contract dining plans ranged
from $387 to $437 per semester. University affiliated people
can obtain guest meal tickets for individual meals in con-
tract dining halls for fairly reasonable prices (unlimited
quantities for $2.00 at breakfast, $2.60 at lunch, and $3.10 at
dinner). More information about contract dining can be ob-
tained from Mr. John Goecker (454-2901).
In addition to the services offered by the contract dining
halls, graduate students may wish to take advantage of the

Yale Avenue, College Park (779-7370), provides Kosher
meals on either a regular or occasional basis.
Career Development Center
The Career Development Center, located in Terrapin Hall,
offers a wide variety of services to graduate students. The
goal of the Center is to assist students in exploring career
opportunities and planning their careers. Services include
career advising, the Career Library, the credentials service,
and the on-campus interview program.
The career advising program includes both individual and
group advising sessions and workshops on jobseeking
skills, resume preparation, and interviewing skills. The
Career Library contains occupational information, full-time
job listings, employer directories, and other reference
sources.
Graduate students are eligible to participate in the on-
campus interview program, which involves campus visits by
representatives from business, government, and education.
Students interested in employment in the fields of educa-
tion and library science will find the credentials service
especially valuable.
Certain services of the Center are also available to
students' spouses.
Counseling Center
The Counseling Center offers consultation on education/
psychological concerns; an open educational-vocational in-
formation library; recorded interviews with department
heads on the characteristics of graduate majors offered on
the campus; and a weekly Research and Data series of
presentations on current educational/psychological topics.
Available services include the following: the Counseling
Service, which offers initial consultation on any problems
and provides further counseling services or referral services
to appropriate individuals or agencies in the area; the
Reading and Study Skills Laboratory, for those interested in
improving any of their educational skills including special
assistance for students for whom English is a second
language; the Parent Consultation and Child Evaluation Ser-
vice, providing a variety of services to the parents of young
children with learning or behavior problems; and the
Testing, Research and Data Processing Division, which
serves as the testing and census taking arm of the campus.
The Center provides consultation to a variety of groups
and individuals concerning organizational development and
group productivity. Other programs include a series of self-
understanding and development groups for interested
students and staff.
The Center provides a wide variety of research reports on
characteristics of students and campus environment.

Health Care
The University Health Center is located on Campus Drive
directly across from the Student Union. Both graduate and
undergraduate students are eligible for health care at the
Health Center. Services provided include both emergency
and routine medical care, mental health evaluation and
treatment, health education, laboratory, x-ray, gynecological
services, and upon referral from a Health Center physician,
dermatological services and orthopedic services.
Students requiring service should call the Health Center
for an appointment. Students who are injured or are too ill
to wait for an appointment will be seen on a walk-in basis.
Emergencies always receive highest priority.
The Health Center is open 8:00 a.m.-6:00 p.m. weekdays
and 11:00 a.m. -3:00 p.m. on weekends with acute illnesses
taking priority on evenings and weekends. Emergencies are
seen 24 hours a day.
Upon payment of the health fee registration, a student
becomes eligible for routine medical care and professional
services at the Health Center. Charges however, are made
for certain laboratory tests, all x-rays, casts and allergy in-
jections. It should be noted that the mandatory health fee is
not a form of health insurance. For information and
emergencies, call 454-3444; Appointments, 454-4923; Mental
Health, 454-4925; Women's Health, 454-4921; Health Educa-
tion, 454-4922.
Health Insurance
Because the mandatory health fee is not a form of health
insurance and many students do not have adequate cover-
age, a voluntary group insurance policy is available to
students. This policy provides benefits, at very reasonable
rates, for hospital, surgery, emergency, laboratory, and x-ray
purposes; some coverage for mental and nervous problems;
and contains a major hospital provision. Students may
enroll at mid-year for a half-yearly rate, and they may elect
to have family coverage. Enrollment periods for the policy
are August 15-October 1 and January 1-March 1. For addi-
tional information and application forms, see the brochure
available in the Health Center or in the Office of Student
Affairs.

University Policy on Disclosure of
Student Records
(Buckley Amendment)
The University of Maryland adheres to a policy of com-
pliance with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act
(Buckley Amendment). As such, it is the policy of the Uni-
versity (1) to permit students to inspect their education
records, (2) to limit disclosure to others of personally identi-
fiable information from education records without students'
prior written consent, and (3) to provide students the oppor-
tunity to seek correction of their education records where
appropriate.
I. Definitions
A. "Student" means an individual who is or who has
been in attendance at the University of Maryland. It
does not include any applicant for admission to the
University who does not matriculate, even if he or
she previously attended the University. (Please note,
however, that such an applicant would be con-
sidered a "student" with respect to his or her
records relating to that previous attendance.)
B. "Education records" include those records which
contain information directly related to a student and
which are maintained as official working files by the
University. The following are not educational records:
(1) records about students made by professors and
General Information / 15
administrators for their own use and not shown
to others;
(2) campus police records maintained solely for law
enforcement purposes and kept separate from
the education records described above;
(3) employment records, except where a currently
enrolled student is employed as a result of his
or her status as a student;
(4) records of a physician, psychologist, or other
recognized professional or paraprofessional
made or used only for treatment purposes and
available only to persons providing treatment.
However, these records may be reviewed by an
appropriate professional of the student's
choice;
(5) records which contain only information relating
to a person's activities after that person is no
longer a student at the University.
It is the policy of the University of Maryland to permit
students to inspect their education records.
A. Right of Access
Each student has a right of access to his or her
education records, except confidential letters of
recommendation received prior to January 1, 1975,
and financial records of the student's parents.
B. Waiver
A student may, by a signed writing, waive his or her
rights of access to confidential recommendations in
three areas: admission to an educational institution,
job placement, and receipt of honors and awards.
The University will not require such waivers as a
condition for admission or receipt of any service or
benefit normally provided to students. If the student
chooses to waive his or her right of access, he or
she will be notified, upon written request, of the
names of all persons making confidential recommen-
dations. Such recommendations will be used only
for the purpose for which they were specifically in-
tended. A waiver may be revoked in writing at any
time, and the revocation will apply to all subsequent
recommendations, but not to recommendations
received while the waiver was in effect.

A. Request to Correct Records
A student who believes that information contained in
his or her education records is inaccurate, mislead-
ing, or violative of privacy or other rights may submit
a written request to the Office of Registrations
specifying the document(s) being challenged and the
basis for the complaint. The request will be sent to
the person responsible for any amendments to the
record in question. Within a reasonable period of
time of receipt of the request, the University will
decide whether to amend the records in accordance
with the request. If the decision is to refuse to
amend, the student will be so notified and will be ad-
vised of the right to a hearing. He or she may then
exercise that right by written request to the Office of
the Chancellor.
B. Right to a Hearing
Upon request by a student, the University will pro-
vide an opportunity for a hearing to challenge the
content of the student's records. A request for a

Within a reasonable period of time after the
conclusion of the hearing, the University will
notify the student in writing of its decision. The

presented at the hearing and will include a sum-
mary of the evidence and the reasons for the
decision. If the University decides that the infor-
mation is inaccurate, misleading, or otherwise
in violation of the privacy or other rights of
students, the University will amend the records
accordingly.
C. Right to Place an Explanation in the Records
If, as a result of the hearing, the University decides
that the information is not inaccurate, misleading, or
otherwise in violation of the student's rights, the
University will inform the student of the right to
place in his or her record a statement commenting
on the information and/or explaining any reasons for
disagreeing with the University's decision. Any such
explanation will be kept as part of the student's
record as long as the contested portion of the record
is kept and will be disclosed whenever the contested
portion of the record is disclosed.

Administrative Offices
The administrative offices of the Graduate School are
located on the second floor of the South Administration
Building, and the Dean, Associate Dean, and Assistant
Dean for Graduate Studies and their staff may be found in
Suite 2133. Other offices to which students may go for ad-
ministrative assistance are listed below:
Office of the Director of Graduate Records: Room 2125,
South Administration Building. The Director of Records of
the Graduate School is the person in charge of graduate ad-
missions and records of degree progress for all prospective
and admitted students.
Office of Graduate Admissions: Room 2107, South Ad-
ministration Building. This office receives and maintains all
files of students applying for admission and answers all in-
quiries regarding the admission process.
Office of Graduate Records: Room 2117, South Administra-
tion Building. This office maintains all files for graduate
students after they have been admitted and provides infor-
mation on registration procedures. Students may obtain the
"Continuous Registration Form" and the "Intercampus
Enrollment Form" here, and petitions and information on in-
state classification for tuition and charge-differential pur-
poses are handled by this office.
Fellowships and Finance Office: Room 2126, South Admin-
istration Building. The Fellowships and Finance Office
serves as a clearinghouse for information on available
fellowships which are sponsored by the Graduate School.
Office of the Assistant to the Dean: Room 2114, South Ad-
ministration Building. The Assistant to the Dean is gener-
ally responsible for assuring that the academic programs
and accomplishments of graduate students fulfill the re-
quirements for degrees established by the Graduate Coun-
cil. The following forms are received and processed by this
office: 1. "Doctoral Candidacy Forms"; 2. "Request for Ap-
pointment of Doctoral Examining Committee"; 3. "Master's
Approved Program Form"; 4. "Certification of Completion of
the Non-thesis Master's Option"; 5. "Certification of Com-
pletion of the Master's Thesis." It is to this office that
copies of the thesis and dissertation must be submitted,
and it is the Assistant to the Dean who prepares official
commencement lists. In addition, students submit to this
office registration forms for foreign language examinations
and requests for approval of transfer of credit for the
Masters' programs.
General
Responsibility for admitting applicants to graduate pro-
grams rests with the Dean for Graduate Studies and his
staff, who regularly seek the advice of the chairmen and
graduate admission committees of the academic programs
in making their decisions. In the case of foreign student ap-
plicants, the University's Director of International Education
is also consulted. Standards applied by the Graduate
School and individual programs are to insure that students
admitted have high qualifications and a reasonable expecta-
tion of successfully completing a graduate program. Stan-
dards for admission to doctoral programs are frequently
higher than those for admission to master's programs. In
many degree programs applications by qualified students
for admission to graduate study regularly exceed the
number of students who can be accommodated. In order to
maintain programs of outstanding quality, the number of
spaces in each program is limited according to the avail-
ability of faculty, special resources, and funds for students
requiring financial assistance. The Graduate School admits
the most highly qualified applicants up to the limit of the
number of spaces in each program.
Criteria for Admission
The decision to admit an applicant to a program is based
primarily on results from a combination of the following
General Information / 19
criteria, according to requirements of the specific program
or department.
1 . Quality of previous undergraduate and graduate work.
The Graduate School requires as a minimum standard a
B average or 3.0 on a 4.0 scale, in a program of study
resulting in the award of a baccalaureate degree from a
regionally accredited college or university. In addition,
the student's undergraduate program should include
completion of the prerequisites for graduate study in
his chosen field. In individual programs, where
resources are available, a few applicants who do not
meet this minimum standard for undergraduate work
may be provisionally admitted if there is compelling
evidence on the basis of other criteria of a reasonable
likelihood of success in the program the person desires
to enter. If an applicant has studied at the graduate
level elsewhere, lesE weight may be, but is not neces-
sarily, placed on the quality of the undergraduate
academic record. Some programs may require a higher
minimum grade average for admission.
2. Strength of letters of recommendation from persons
competent to judge the applicant's probable success in
graduate school. Usually these letters are from the ap-
plicant's former professors who are able to give an in-
depth evaluation of the applicant's strengths and weak-
nesses with respect to academic work. Additional
recommendations may come from employers or super-
visors who are familiar with the applicant's work ex-
perience. Applicants should instruct their references to
send all letters of recommendation directly to the pro-
gram in which they desire entrance. Some departments
do not require letters of recommendation. (See applica-
tion form.)
3. Scores on a nationally standardized examination.
Because the predictive utility of these scores may vary
from one group of applicants to another, a discrimi-
nating use of all relevant materials will be made in each
applicant's case. The three most widely used standard-
ized examinations are the Graduate Record Exam-
inations, Graduate Management Admissions Test, and
the Miller Analogies Test.
GRADUATE RECORD EXAMINATIONS (GRE): Al-
though many graduate programs do not require the
GRE, almost all will use such test scores as an addi-
tional measure of an applicant's qualifications. The
GRE may be taken in either or both of two forms: The
Aptitude Test and The Advanced Test. Applicants can
take this test in their senior year or when filing for ad-
mission. For details, applicants should write directly to
Graduate Record Examinations, Educational Testing
Service, Box 955, Princeton, New Jersey 08540.
GRADUATE MANAGEMENT ADMISSIONS TEST
(GMAT): Details about this test, required when applying
to a program in Business and Management, can be ob-
tained by writing to the Educational Testing Service,
Box 966, Princeton, N.J. 08540.
THE MILLER ANALOGIES TEST (MAT): Details about
the graduate form of this test can be obtained by writ-
ing to the Director, Counseling Center, University of
Maryland, College Park, Md. 20742.
For information on the programs requiring one of
these tests, please see the List of Graduate Programs
in this catalog and the instructions accompanying ap-
plication forms.
4. Statement by the applicant of his academic career ob-
jectives and their relation to the program of study he
wishes to pursue. These statements help the depart-
ment or program identify students whose objectives are
consonant with the objectives of the program.
5. Other evidence of graduate potential. Some programs
require other evidence of graduate potential, such as
samples from portfolios of creative work, completion of
specialzied examinations, or personal interviews.
In addition to the above criteria, special consideration will
be given to:
1. Residence of the applicant. While the University desires
to maintain a geographically diverse graduate student
population, it also recognizes its responsibility to legal
residents of the state. Every effort will be made to ac-
commodate qualified Maryland residents.
2. Sex and minority group membership. The University of
Maryland, its Graduate School and each of its academic
components have strong affirmative action programs
for increasing the participation of minority groups and
women among its students, staff and faculty.
Categories of
Admission to Degree Programs
Full Graduate Status
For admission in this category an applicant must have
received a baccalaureate degree from a regionally ac-
credited institution and be otherwise fully qualified in every
respect.
Provisional Graduate Status
This designation may be used when 1) the quality of the
previous academic record at a regionally accredited institu-
tion is lower than established standards or when there is a
lack of adequate prerequisite course work in the chosen
field; 2) when the applicant has majored in another area
with a creditable record but there is some doubt about his
ability to pursue the program of study in question; 3) when
the applicant is engaged in graduate study at another insti-
tution but is not able to furnish a transcript indicating com-
pletion of course work or degree requirements, or 4) when
the applicant is a senior in his final semester of work for a
bachelor's degree and is not able to furnish a final
transcript indicating the completion of all requirements and
the award of the degree.
Students admitted provisionally because of incomplete
official supporting documents must have a complete of-
ficial record of all previous work sent to the Graduate
School within three months following the completion of
such study and the award of the degree, or they face
cancellation of admission.
A program to correct any deficiencies in preparation will
be outlined by the faculty, and the student is expected to
become fully qualified within a specified time limit. When
all conditions have been met the department may recom-
20 / General Information
mend admission of the student to full status. Students who
are unable to qualify for full admission under the conditions
specified may have their admission terminated.
Non-degree Admission Categories
Advanced Graduate Specialist Certificate Status
The Advanced Graduate Specialist program is designed to
promote a high level of professional competence in an area
of specialization in the field of education. The candidate
must be able to show that he or she can operate as an ef-
fective counselor, administrator, teacher or skilled person in
his major field of professional endeavor. The Advanced
Graduate Specialist Certificate is offered through most of
the programs in the College of Education and the
Agricultural and Extension Education program in the Col-
lege of Agriculture. The Certificate is awarded by the Col-
lege of Education or by the College of Agriculture. Require-
ments are as follows:
1. Applicants must meet the same general criteria for ad-
mission as are prescribed for degree seekers. Addi-
tionally, the applicant must have completed a master's
degree or the equivalent in credits earned either at the
University of Maryland or at another regionally ac-
credited institution. The Miller Analogies Test scores
are required at the time of application.
2. Coursework totaling not more than 30 credits with
grades of at least a "B" from an accredited institution
may be transferred to the program at the University of
Maryland.
3. The program must be developed in cooperation with an
advisor and filed with the Graduate Studies office in the
College of Education.
4. The Advanced Graduate Specialist Certificate program
requires a minimum of 60 semester hours of credit with
not less than 30 semester hours of credit completed
with the University of Maryland. At least one half of the
credits earned either at other institutions or at the
University of Maryland must be in courses comparable
to those in the 600-800 series. The student may be re-
quired to take a substantial portion of the program in
departments other than those in the College of Educa-
tion or the College of Agriculture. Registration in cer-
tain kinds of field study, field experience, appren-
ticeship or internship may also be required.
5. There will be a written examination of not less than six
hours. A "B" average with no "D" or "F" grades will be
required before the certificate can be awarded.
For additional details see "Statement of Policies and
Procedures'. Advanced Graduate Specialist Program in
Education." issued by the College of Education.
Advanced Special Student Status
The Advanced Special Student Status is designed to pro-
vide an opportunity to individuals who do not have an im-
mediate degree objective in mind to take graduate level
courses. Although the primary mission of the Graduate
School is to conduct programs of graduate instruction
leading to advanced degrees, the Graduate Faculty wel-
comes, to the extent that available resources allow.
qualified students who have no degree objectives.
Applicants for admission to Advanced Special Student
Status must satisfy at least one of the following criteria:
1. Hold a baccalaureate degree from a regionally ac-
credited institution with an overall "B" (3.0) average. Ap-
plicants must submit official transcripts covering all
credits used in satisfying the baccalaureate degree
requirements.
2. Hold a master's or doctoral degree from a regionally ac-
credited institution. Applicants must submit an official
transcript showing the award of a master's or doctoraJ
degree.
3. Hold a baccalaureate degree from a regionally ac-
credited institution and have at least four years of suc-
cessful post-baccalaureate work or professional expe-
rience. Applicants must submit an official transcript
showing the award of the baccalaureate degree and a
signed statement summarizing successful post-
baccalaureate work or professional experience. Letters
from employers or professional organizations to sup-
port the statement of successful professional expe-
riences are also required.
4. Achieve a score that places the applicant in the upper
50 percentile of appropriate national standardized apti-
tude examinations such as the Graduate Record Ex-
amination Aptitude Test, the Miller's Analogies Test,
the Graduate Management Admissions Test. Where dif-
ferent percentiles are possible the Graduate School will
determine which score is acceptable.
Admission to Advanced Special Student status will con-
tinue for five years. If there is no registration in three con-
secutive academic year semesters, the admitted status will
lapse, after which a new application will be required.
Advanced Special Students must maintain a 2.75 grade
point average.
Advanced Special Students must pay all standard grad-
uate fees. Students in this status are not eligible to hold
appointments as Graduate Teaching or Research Assistants
or Fellows. All other services, e.g. parking, library privileges,
etc.. are the same as those accorded to other graduate
students.
Admission to Advanced Special Student status is not in-
tended to be used as a preparatory program for later admis-
sion to a doctoral or master's program nor to the Advanced
Graduate Specialist Certificate program. Credits earned
while in this status may be applicable to a degree or certifi-
cate program at a later time only with the approval of the
faculty in the desired program, if the student is subse-
quently accepted for degree or certificate study. For con-
sideration of admission to a degree program at a later time,
the student must submit an application in the standard for-
mat, with a new application fee. to the Graduate School.
Visiting Graduate Student Status
A graduate student matriculated in another graduate
school, who wishes to enroll in the Graduate School of the
University of Maryland at College Park and who intends
thereafter to return to the graduate school in which he is
matriculated, may be admitted as a Visiting Graduate
Student.
Criteria for enrollment as a visitor are admission to and
General Information / 21
good standing in another recognized graduate school. The
applicant need not submit full transcripts of credits, but he
must apply for admission to the UMCP Graduate School
and pay the application fee. In lieu of transcripts, a student
may have his own graduate dean certify, in writing, to the
Graduate School that he is in good standing and that the
credits will be accepted toward his graduate degree. Unless
otherwise specified, admission will be offered for one year
only.
Non-degree Student Status — Undergraduate
This is an undergraduate classification and may be as-
signed by the Director of Admissions (undergraduate divi-
sion) to those applicants who have received the bac-
calaureate or an advanced degree from a regionally ac-
credited institution but who do not desire or who do not
qualify for graduate admission. Non-degree seeking
students who do not have a baccalaureate degree or an
R.N. must submit transcripts and meet regular admission
standards. Transcripts are not required from students with
baccalaureate degrees or an R.N.
Application for Non-degree Student Status — Undergrad-
uate must be made directly to the Office of Admissions,
not to the Graduate School.
Students often need permission from the deans of the
various schools and colleges of the university to enroll as a
Non-degree Student. Non-degree Students may enroll for
courses through the 500 numbered series for which they
possess the necessary prerequisites. Courses numbered
600 or above are intended for admitted graduate students
only.
The student is warned that no credit earned while in a
Non-degree Student Status — Undergraduate may be ap-
plied at a later date to a degree program.
Offer of Admission
A written offer of admission is made to all accepted appli-
cants and specifies the date of entrance, which will nor-
mally coincide with the date requested in the application.
The student must accept or decline the offer of admission
by the date indicated in the offer, or it lapses and the space
is reassigned to another applicant. An individual whose of-
fer of admission has lapsed must submit a new application
and fee, if he wants to be reconsidered for admission at a
later date.
The offer of admission is also a permit-to-register for
courses and must be presented by the student at the time
of his first registration. Identification as a graduate student,
to be used thereafter, will be issued at the time of first
registration.
Admission Time Limits
For master's degree candidates. Advanced Graduate Spe-
cialist Certificate seekers, and Advanced Special Students,
admission terminates five years from the entrance date.
Visiting Graduate Students and NSF Institute students are
admitted for specified periods.
A doctoral student must be admitted to candidacy within
five years after entrance and must complete all remaining
requirements within four years after admission to candi-
dacy. Admission to the doctoral program terminates if
these conditions are not met.
Change of Objective, Status
Termination of Admission
Students are admitted only to a specified program and
within that program only for the specified objective: e.g.,
master's degree, doctoral degree, or Advanced Graduate
Specialist Certificate. If the student wishes to change either
the program or his status (for example, from Advanced
Special Student to degree status), he must submit a new
application and fee for admission. Admission in the new
status is not granted automatically.
The student's admission also terminates when the origi-
nal objective has been attained; for example, the admission
terminates when a student who is admitted for the master's
degree completes the requirements for that degree. If the
student wishes to continue for the doctorate, a new ap-
plication for admission to the doctoral program must be
submitted; requests for admission to the doctoral program
are subject to the same review process applied to others
seeking admission to that program.
A student can be admitted to only one graduate program
at any one time. Application for and acceptance of an offer
of admission in a second graduate program automatically
terminates the student's admission to the first program.
Students must maintain an average grade of B or better
in all graduate courses taken and must otherwise satisfy all
additional departmental and Graduate School program re-
quirements. The admission of all students, both degree and
non-degree, is continued at the discretion of the major pro-
fessor, the department or program director, and the Dean
for Graduate Studies.
Admission of Faculty
No member of the faculty employed by the University of
Maryland having the rank of Assistant Professor or above is
permitted to take work leading to an advanced degree at
this institution.
Application Instructions
To apply you must send both the completed application
and complete, official transcripts covering all credits earned
at any institution, in duplicate, to the Office of the Dean for
Graduate Studies, University of Maryland, College Park,
Maryland 20742.
Decisions on admission and financial aid for either sum-
mer terms and for fall semester will first be made for those
whose completed applications and supporting material have
been received by the Graduate School on or before March
1. Qualified applicants whose completed applications and
supporting material are received after March 7, but on or
before May 1, will be granted admission and financial aid
on a first-come, first-served basis, up to the limits of
available space in the program.
Applications for entry for the Spring semesters must be
received by November 1.
22 / General Information
Application deadlines for non-U. S. citizens — please see
"Foreign Student Applications" below.
It is in general to the student's advantage to apply before
the deadline, since in many programs, no space will be
available to those who apply after March 1 due to heavy de-
mand for admission. Applicants who require financial sup-
port and wish to be among those first considered should
submit their applications by February 1.
The application should arrive before the arrival of trans-
cripts and other supporting evidence of preparation, if these
materials cannot be attached to the application.
Applicants are solely responsible for making certain that
their transcripts have, in fact, been received by the
Graduate School and not by the Registrar's Office or the
graduate program desired, since no follow-up action can be
taken by the Graduate School.
Students who apply in their senior year in college must
have a transcript sent to the Graduate School of all
coursework completed up to the time of application. In ad-
dition, senior year first semester grade reports should be
forwarded, if they are not on the current transcript, since no
final decision will be possible without such grades. Seniors
should also submit with the application a list of the
courses in which they are currently enrolled.
An official transcript is defined as a record which bears
the signature of the registrar and the seal of the institution.
A complete and separate application and fee must be
submitted for each program in which entrance is sought. A
new application is also required if there is a change in the
objective or program.
A fee of $15.00 must accompany the application for ad-
mission. This fee is not refundable under any circum-
stances. Payment must be made by check or money order
payable to the University of Maryland. Do not send stamps
or cash.
Students applying for entrance in either of the two sum-
mer sessions are urged to check the Summer Sessions Bul-
letin to determine if the courses they wish to take will be
offered in a particular session. To obtain this publication,
write to Summer Sessions Office, University of Maryland,
College Park, Maryland 20742.
Foreign Student Applications
No foreign student seeking admission to the University of
Maryland should plan to leave his country before receiving
an official offer of admission from the Director of Graduate
Records of the Graduate School.
Academic Credentials
The complete application and official academic credentials
— beginning with secondary school records — should be
received by the Graduate Admissions Office by February 1
for the Fall Semester and by June 1 for the Spring
Semester. Space available for foreign students may have
been filled prior to this deadline, and all qualified students
may not be accepted.
English Proficiency
In addition to meeting academic requirements, the foreign
student applicant must demonstrate proficiency in English
by taking the Test of English as a Foreign language
(TOEFL). Because TOEFL is given only five times a year
throughout various parts of the world, as soon as a student
contemplates study at the University of Maryland, he
should make arrangements to take the test. For test infor-
mation, write to TOEFL Director, Educational Testing Ser-
vice, Box 899, Princeton, New Jersey 08540. When the appli-
cant is ready to begin his studies, he will be expected to
read, speak, and write English fluently, to understand lec-
tures and to take pertinent notes.
Financial Resources
A statement regarding the applicant's financial support is
required by the Office of International Education Services.
The Office must be assured that an applicant has sufficient
financial resources to meet educational and living expenses
of approximately $7,400 per year for the entire period of
study at the University of Maryland.
Immigration Documents
It is necessary for students eligible for admission to secure
from the university's Director of International Education
Services the immigration form required for obtaining the ap-
propriate visa. Students already studying in the United
States who wish to transfer to the University of Maryland
must also secure proper immigration documents to request
the Immigration and Naturalization Service to grant permis-
sion for transfer.
Reporting Upon Arrival
Every foreign student is expected to report to the Office of
International Education Services, North Administration
Building, as soon as possible after he arrives at the Univer-
sity. This Office will be able to assist not only with various
problems regarding immigration, housing, and fees, but
also with problems relating generally to orientation to
university and community life.
Questions concerning criteria and requirements for
foreign applicants should be addressed to the Director, In-
ternational Education Services, University of Maryland, Col-
lege Park, Md. 20742.
Records Maintenance and Disposition
All records, including academic records from other institu-
tions, become part of the official file and can neither be
returned nor duplicated for any purpose. A student should
obtain an additional copy of his official credentials to keep
in his possession for advisory purposes and for other per-
sonal requirements.
The admission credentials and the application data of ap-
plicants who do not register for courses at the time for
which they have been admitted or whose applications have
been disapproved or who do not respond to the departmen-
tal requests for additional information or whose applica-
tions are not complete with respect to the receipt of all
transcripts or test results are retained for 18 months only
and then destroyed.

Graduate credit will not be given unless the student has
been admitted to the Graduate School.
Designation of Full and Part-time
Graduate Students
In order to accurately reflect the involvement of graduate
students in their programs of study and research and the
use of University resources in those programs, the
Graduate Council uses the graduate unit in making calcula-
tions to determine full or part-time student status in the ad-
ministration of the minimum registration requirements
described below and in responding to student requests for
certification of full-time student status. The number of
graduate units per semester credit hour is calculated in the
following manner:
Courses in the series: 000-399 carry 2 units/credit hour.
Courses in the series: 400-499 carry 4 units/credit hour.
Courses in the series: 500-599 carry 5 units/credit hour.
Courses in the series: 600-898 carry 6 units/credit hour.
Research course: 799 carries 12 units/credit hour.
Research course: 899 carries 18 units/credit hour.
To be certified as a full-time student a graduate student
must be officially registered for a combination of courses
equivalent to 48 units per semester. A graduate assistant
holding a regular appointment is a full-time student, if he is
registered for at least 24 units in addition to the
assistantship.
Grades for Graduate Students
A minimum grade point average of 3.0 is required for
graduation with a graduate degree.
Grading Systems
The conventional A through F grading system is used in
graduate level courses.
A "Satisfactory or Failure" (S-F) grading system may be
used, at the discretion of the department or program, for
certain types of graduate study. These include courses
which require independent field work, special projects, or
independent study. Departmental seminars, workshops, and
departmental courses in instructional methods may also be
appropriate for the S-F grading system.
The "Pass-Fail" grade option, which may be elected by
iformation
undergraduates, is not available to students at the graduate
level.
Thesis and dissertation research, and courses labelled
"Independent Study" or "Special Problems," may use either
the A-F or the S-F grading system.
Only one grading system will be used for a single course
in a particular semester. The grading system will be
designated by the department or program offering the
course.
Computation of Grade Point Average
The A is calculated at 4 quality points, B at 3 quality points
and C at 2 quality points. The grades of D, F, and I receive
no quality points. After a student is matriculated as a
graduate student, all courses he takes numbered 400 and
above, except 500-level courses, those numbered 799 or
899, and those graded with an S, will be used in the
calculation of the grade point average. A student may
repeat any course in an effort to earn a better grade. The
later grade, whether higher or lower, will be used in com-
puting the grade point average. No course taken after
August 23, 1974, will be considered "not applicable" for the
purpose of computing the grade point average of a gradu-
ate student. No graduate credit transferred from another in-
stitution will be included in the calculation of the grade
point average.
Minimum Registration Requirements
All graduate students making any demand upon the
academic or support services of the university, whether tak-
ing courses, using university libraries, laboratories, com-
puter facilities, office space, housing, or consulting with
faculty advisors, taking comprehensive or final oral ex-
aminations, must register for the number of graduate units
which will, in the judgment of the faculty advisor, accur-
ately reflect the student's involvement in graduate study
and use of university resources. In no case will registration
be for less than one credit.
Minimum Registration Requirements for
Doctoral Candidates
Doctoral students who have been advanced to candidacy
must register each semester, excluding summer sessions,
until the degree is awarded.
Dissertation Research
Those who have not completed the required 12 semester
credit hours of Dissertation Research (899), or its
equivalent, must register for a minimum of 18 graduate
units each semester. Doctoral candidates whose demands
upon the University are greater than that represented by
this minimum registration will, of course, be expected to
register for the number of units which reflect their use of
University resources.
Continuous Registration
Doctoral candidates who have completed the required
minimum of 12 credit hours of Dissertation Research (899),
or its equivalent, and who are making no use of University
resources, must meet a Continuous Registration require-
ment, in each semester, except for summer sessions, until
the degree is awarded. This requirement is met by submit-
ting the Continjous Registration Form and paying the
$10.00 Continuous Registration fee, in person or by mail,
directly to the Graduate School. Forms and fees must be
received before the end of the eighth week of classes dur-
ing the fall and spring semesters. Continuous Registration
forms may be obtained from the Graduate School, Room
2117, South Administration Building, University of Maryland,
College Park, Maryland 20742.
Failure to comply with the requirement for maintaining
Continuous Registration will be taken as evidence that the
student has terminated his doctoral program, and admitted
status to the Graduate School will be terminated. A new ap-
plication for admission, with the consequent reevaluation of
the student's performance, will be required of a student
wishing to resume a graduate program, whose admission
has been terminated under this regulation.
Partial Credit Course Registration for
Handicapped Students
The Graduate School recognizes that physically handi-
capped students may derive considerable educational
benefit from courses which include laboratories or other
non-classroom activities in which the student is prevented
from participating because of the handicap. It is, therefore,
the policy of the Graduate School to allow handicapped
students to enroll in such courses, complete only those
parts of the course that their physical capabilities permit,
and receive credit for the course proportionate to their
levels of participation.
Physically handicapped graduate students wishing to
enroll in such courses but participate only in certain
aspects of them, should consult the Assistant to the Dean
of the Graduate School (Room 2114 South Administration
Building). That person will assist the student in making the
necessary arrangements with the department offering the
course, the department supervising the student's graduate
program, and the Registration Office. The final agreement
as to the student's level of participation and the amount of
credit to be awarded will be specified in an agreement to
be drawn up by the Graduate School and signed by all par-
ties concerned.
Graduate Credit for Senior Undergraduates
A senior in his final semester at the University of Maryland
at College Park who is within seven credit hours of com-
pleting the requirements for an undergraduate degree may,
with the approval of his undergraduate dean, the provost of
his division, the department or program offering the
course, and the Graduate School, register for graduate
courses. These may later be counted for graduate credit
toward an advanced degree at the University, if the student
has been approved for admission to the Graduate School.
The total of undergraduate and graduate courses must not
exceed 15 credits for the semester. Excess credits in the
senior year cannot be used for graduate credit unless pro-
per prearrangement is made. Seniors who wish to register
General Information / 25
for graduate credit should inquire at the Graduate School,
Office of the Director of Records, for information about the
procedure.
Undergraduate Credit for
Graduate Level Courses
Subject to requirements determined by the graduate facul-
ty members of the department or program offering the
course, undergraduate students may register for graduate
level courses, i.e., those numbered from 600 to 898, with
the exception of 799, for undergraduate credit.
A student seeking to utilize this option will normally be
in the senior year, have earned an accumulated grade point
average of 3.0, have successfully completed, with a grade
of B or better, the prerequisite and correlative courses, and
be a major in the appropriate or a closely related depart-
ment. The student will be required to obtain prior approval
of the department offering the course.
Enrollment in a graduate level course does not in any
way imply subsequent departmental or Graduate School
approval for admission into a graduate program, nor may
the course be used as credit for a graduate degree at the
University of Maryland.
Credit by Examination
A graduate student may obtain graduate credit by examina-
tion in courses at the 400 level previously identified by the
appropriate department or program. As a general rule,
credit by examination is not available for courses at the
600, 700, or 800 levels for, in the judgment of the Graduate
Council, courses at these levels require a continuing in-
teraction between faculty and students to achieve the
educational goals of advanced study.
A student may receive credit by examination only for a
course for which he is otherwise eligible to receive
graduate credit. The department or program in which he is
enrolled may establish a limit on the number of credits
which may be earned in this manner. Graduate students
seeking credit by examination must obtain the consent of
their advisor and of the instructor currently responsible for
the course. Once the student begins the examination, the
grade earned will be recorded.
The Graduate School maintains a list of courses for
which examinations are available or will be prepared. The
fee for credit by examination for full-time graduate
students is $30.00 per course regardless of the number of
credits or units to be earned. Part-time graduate students
will be charged the same fee per credit hour they would
pay if taking the course in the usual manner.
Transfer of Credit
A maximum of six semester hours of graduate level course
credits earned at regionally accredited institutions prior to,
or after, matriculation in the Graduate School may be ap-
plied toward master's degrees at the University of
Maryland. Proportionately larger amounts of credit may be
applied toward doctoral degrees.
All graduate study credits offered as transfer credit must
meet the following criteria:
1. They must have received graduate credit at the institu-
tion where earned.
2. They must not have been used to meet the re-
quirements for any degree previously earned.
3. They must have been taken within the time limits ap-
plicable to degrees awarded by the Graduate School.
4. The department or program to which the student has
been admitted at Maryland must certify the courses
are appropriate to the degree program the student is
pursuing at Maryland.
5. The student must have earned a B or better in the
courses offered for transfer credit.
6. Transfer work normally satisfies only the 400 level re-
quirements for the master's degree and 6o$s not apply
to the upper level requirement.
A student seeking acceptance of transfer credit is ad-
vised to submit the necessary transcripts and certification
of department or program approval to the Graduate School
as promptly as possible for its review and decision.
Criteria that Courses Must Meet to be
Accepted for Graduate Credit
Any courses, workshops, or seminars planned to take
place in a span of time less than a normal academic
semester or summer session and offering graduate credit
to the participants must meet the following criteria:
1. There must be 15 "contact hours" per graduate credit.
a. Lectures: 1 contact hour per 50 minutes lecture.
b. Non-lecture contact (laboratory, workshops, discus-
sion and problem working sessions, etc.): 1 contact
hour per 2 or 3 hour session.
2. No more than three "contact hours" per day will be per-
mitted. (Three "contact hours" are equivalent to 0.2
credits)
3. Credit may be accumulated at the rate of no more than
one credit per week.
The Inter-Campus Student
A student admitted to the Graduate School on any campus
of the University is eligible to take courses on any other
campus of the University with the approval of his academic
advisor and the graduate deans on the home and host cam-
puses. Credits earned on a host campus are resident credit
at the home campus and meet all degree requirements.
Transcripts of work taken at another campus will be main-
tained on the home campus, and fees will be paid to the
home campus. Forms for registration as an inter-campus
student may be obtained from the Graduate School offices
on any campus of the University.
DEGREE REQUIREMENTS
Graduate School Requirements Applicable
to all Master's Degrees.
Programs
The entire course of study undertaken for any master's
26 / General Information
degree must constitute a unified, coherent program which
is approved by the student's advisor and by the Graduate
School.
A minimum of thirty semester hours in courses accept-
able for credit towards a graduate degree is required; in cer-
tain cases six of the thirty semester hours must be thesis
research credits. The graduate program must include at
least 12 hours of course work at the 600 level or higher. If
the student is inadequately prepared for the required
graduate courses, additional courses may be required,
which may not be considered as part of the student's
graduate program.
Grade-point Average
The student seeking any master's degree must maintain an
average grade of B over all courses taken for graduate
credit.
Time Limitation
All requirements for the master's degree must be com-
pleted within a five year period. This time limit applies to
any transfer work from other institutions to be included in a
student's program.
Residence Requirements
A minimum residence of one year of full-time study, or its
equivalent, at this university is required.
Additional Requirements
In addition to the above requirements, special departmental
or collegiate requirements may be imposed, especially for
degrees which are offered only in one department, college,
or division. For these special requirements consult the
descriptions which appear under the departmental or col-
legiate listing in this catalog or the special publications
which can be obtained from the department or college.
Graduate School Requirements for
the Degrees of Master of Arts
and Master of Science
THESIS OPTION
Course Requirements
A minimum of 30 semester hours including six hours of
thesis research credit (799) is required for the degrees of
Master of Arts and Master of Science. Of the 24 hours re-
quired in graduate courses, no less than 12 must be
earned in the major subject. No less than one-half of the
total required course credits for the degree, or a minimum
of twelve, must be selected from courses numbered 600 or
above.
Thesis Requirement
A thesis is required for the Master of Arts and Master of
Science degrees except for those programs in which a
non-thesis option has been approved by the Dean for Grad-
uate Studies in conformity with the policy of the Graduate
Council. Approval of the thesis is the responsibility of an
examining committee appointed by the Dean for Graduate
Studies. The student's advisor is the chairman of the com-
mittee, and the remaining members of the committee are
members of the graduate faculty who are familiar with the
student's program of study. The chairman and the can-
didate are informed of the membership of the examining
committee by the Dean.
Directions for the preparation and submission of theses
will be found in the Graduate Student Academic Hand-
book, which may be purchased at the university book
store.
Oral Examination
A final oral examination on the thesis shall be held when
the student has completed his thesis to the satisfaction of
his advisor, providing he has completed all other re-
quirements for the degree and has earned a 3.0 grade
average, computed in accordance with the regulations
described under "Grades for Graduate Students."
The examining committee, with a minimum of three
members, conducts the oral examination (an additional
comprehensive written examination may be required at the
option of the department or program). The chairman of the
examining committee selects the time and place for the
examination and notifies other members of the committee
and the candidate. Members of the committee must be
given a minimum of seven school days in which to read
the thesis.
The duration of the examination is normally about an
hour, but it may be longer if necessary to insure an ade-
quate examination. The report of the committee, signed by
each member, must be submitted to the Dean for Graduate
Studies no later than the appropriate date listed in the "Im-
portant Dates for Advisors and Students," if the student is
to receive a diploma at the Commencement in the
semester in which the examination is held.
NON-THESIS OPTION
The requirements for Master of Arts and Master of Science
degrees without thesis vary slightly among departments
and programs in which this option is available. Standards
for admission are, however, identical with those for admis-
sion to any other master's program. The quality of the
work expected of the student is also identical to that ex-
pected in the thesis programs.
The general requirements for those on the non-thesis
program are a minimum of 30 semester credit hours in
courses approved for graduate credit with a minimum
average grade of B in all course work taken; a minimum of
18 semester credit hours in courses numbered 600 or
above; the submission of one or more scholarly papers;
and successful completion of a comprehensive final ex-
amination, a portion of which must be written.
A student following a non-thesis master's program will
be expected to meet the same deadlines for application for
a diploma and for final examination reports established for
all other degree programs.
For information on programs which offer the non-thesis
option, see the list of Graduate Programs in this Catalog.
Requirements for the Degree of
Master of Education
Nearly all departments in Education offer the Master of
Education (M.Ed.) degree with the following requirements:
1. A minimum of 30 semester hours in coursework with a
grade average of B. Grades for courses not a part of
General Information / 27
the program but taken in graduate status will be com-
puted in the average.
2. A minimum of 15 hours in courses numbered 600-800
with the remainder at least in the 400 series. Some de-
partments require courses in departments outside of
those in Education.
3. A comprehensive written examination taken at the end
of coursework. A part of the examination may be oral.
4. EDMS 646 or MUED 690 and one seminar paper; or
two seminar papers.
5. EDMS 446 or EDMS 451.
6. Test battery.
For further details, see "Statement of Policies and Pro-
cedures: Master's Degrees in Education," issued by the
College of Education, and descriptions of departmental
programs.
Requirements Applicable to
Other Master's Degrees
The particular requirements for the degrees of Master of
Business Administration, Master of Library Science, Master
of Music, and Master of Fine Arts are given under the indi-
vidual Graduate Program entries in those fields.
Graduate School Requirements
Applicable to All Doctoral Degrees
Credit Requirements
The Graduate School requires that every student seeking
the doctoral degree register for a minimum of 12 research
credits, but the number of research and other credit hours
required in the program varies with the degree and pro-
gram in question.
Residence
The equivalent of three years of full-time graduate study
and research is the minimum required. Of the three years,
the equivalent of at least one year must be spent at the
University of Maryland. On a part-time basis the time
needed will be increased correspondingly. All work at other
institutions offered in partial fulfillment of the re-
quirements for any doctoral degree must be submitted,
with the recommendation of the department or program
concerned, to the Graduate School for approval at the time
of application for admission to candidacy. Official
transcripts of the work must be filed in the Graduate
School.
Admission to Candidacy
Preliminary examinations, or such other substantial tests
as the departments may elect, are frequently prerequisite
for admission to candidacy.
A student must be admitted to candidacy for the doc-
torate within five years after admission to the doctoral pro-
gram and at least one academic year before the date on
which the degree will be conferred.
It is the responsibility of the student to submit his ap-
plication for admission to candidacy when all the re-
quirements for candidacy have been fulfilled. Applications
for admission to candidacy are made in duplicate by the
student and submitted to the major department for further
action and transmission to the Graduate School. Applica-
tion forms may be obtained at the office of the Assistant
to the Dean for Graduate Studies.
Time Limitation
The student must complete the entire program for the
degree, including the dissertation and final examination,
during a four year period after admission to candidacy. Ex-
tensions of time are granted only under the most unusual
circumstances. If a student fails to complete all re-
quirements within the time allotted, he must submit
another application for admission to the Graduate School
and, if readmitted, another application for Advancement to
Candidacy, after satisfying the usual program prerequisites
prior to Advancement to Candidacy.
Dissertation
A dissertation or its equivalent is required of all candidates
for a doctoral degree. The topic of the dissertation must be
approved by the department or program committee.
During the preparation of the dissertation, all candidates
for any doctoral degree must register for the prescribed
number of semester hours of Doctoral Dissertation
Research (899) at the University of Maryland.
Directions for the preparation and submission of disser-
tations will be found in the Graduate Student Academic
Handbook, which may be purchased at the university book
store.
Publication of the Dissertation
If a student wishes to publish all or a portion of his thesis
or dissertation prior to its defense and approval by the
Graduate Faculty examining committee, he must first seek
the approval of the Dean for Graduate Studies. This ap-
proval is sought through a letter to the Dean, endorsed by
the dissertation advisor, containing an explanation of the
need for early publication.
Final Examination
The final oral defense of the dissertation is conducted by a
committee of the Graduate Faculty appointed by the Dean
for Graduate Studies. Nominations for membership on the
committee are submitted by the student's major professor
by the third week of the semester in which the student ex-
pects to complete all requirements, but no later than two
months prior to the examination, on the designated form.
The major professor serves as chairman of the commit-
tee, which will consist of a minimum of five voting
members, all of whom hold the doctoral degree. At least
one of the five must be a faculty member in a department
or Graduate Program at UMCP external to the one in which
the student is seeking the degree. A minimum of three
members of the committee must be regular members of
the Graduate Faculty of the University of Maryland.
One or more members of the committee may be persons
from other institutions who hold the doctorate and who are
28 / General Information
distinguished scholars in the field of the dissertation.
The Dean for Graduate Studies designates one member
of the committee as his representative. In addition to hav-
ing the normal responsibility of a faculty examiner, the
Dean's representative has the responsibility of assuring
that the examination is conducted according to established
procedures. Any disagreement over the examination pro-
cedures is referred to the Dean's representative for
decision.
The time and place of the examination are established
by the chairman of the committee. The student is responsi-
ble for distributing a complete copy of the dissertation to
each member of the committee at least ten days before
the examination.
All final oral examinations are open to all members of
the Graduate Faculty. After the examination the committee
deliberates and votes in private. Two or more negative
votes constitute a failure. The student may be examined no
more than twice.
Additional Requirements
In addition to the above requirements, special departmental
or collegiate requirements may be imposed, especially for
those degrees which are offered in only one department,
college, or division. For these special requirements, con-
sult the descriptions which appear under the departmental
or collegiate listing in this catalog or the special publica-
tions which can be obtained from the department, college,
or division.
Graduate School Requirements for
the Degree of Doctor of Philosphy
The Doctor of Philosophy Degree is granted only upon suf-
ficient evidence of high attainment in scholarship and the
ability to engage in independent research. It is not awarded
for the completion of course and seminar requirements no
matter how successfully completed.
Residence
See requirements for all doctoral degrees.
Foreign Language Requirement
A number of departments have a foreign language require-
ment for the Doctor of Philosophy degree. The student
should inquire in the department regarding this require-
ment. The student must satisfy the departmental or pro-
gram requirement before he can be admitted to candidacy
for the doctorate.
Program
There is no Graduate School requirement for a specific
number of course credits in either a major or a minor sub-
ject. It is the policy of the Graduate School to encourage
the development of individual programs for each student
who seeks the Ph.D. To that end the academic depart-
ments and interdisciplinary programs have been directed to
determine major and minor requirements, levels or se-
quences of required courses, and similar requirements for
submission to the Graduate Council for approval.
Admission to Candidacy
See requirements for all doctoral degrees.
Dissertation
The ability to do independent research must be
demonstrated by an original dissertation on a topic ap-
proved by the department or program.
During the preparation of the dissertation, all candidates
for the Doctor of Philosophy degree must register for a
minimum of 12 semester hours of doctoral research (899)
at the University of Maryland.
Final Examination
See requirements for all doctoral degrees.
Requirements for the Degree of
Doctor of Education
The requirements for the Doctor of Education (Ed.D.)
degree are for the most part the same as those for the
Doctor of Philosophy degree in education departments in
the Graduate School. The only difference lies in the
amount of credit for the Ed.D. project (6-9 hours) as com-
pared to that required for the Ph.D. dissertation (12-16
hours). For details see "Statement of Policy and Pro-
cedures: Doctoral Degrees in Education," issued by the
College of Education, as well as requirements for the
Ph.D., see above, and departmental regulations.
Requirements for
Other Doctoral Degrees
The particular requirements for the degrees of Doctor of
Business Administration and Doctor of Musical Arts are
given under the corresponding program descriptions.
Commencement
Applications for the diploma must be filed with the Office
of Admissions and Registrations within the first three
weeks of the semester in which the candidate expects to
obtain a degree, except during summer session. During the
summer session, the application must be filed during the
first week of the second summer session. Exact dates are
noted for each semester and the summer sessions in "Im-
portant Dates for Advisors and Students."
If, for any reason, a student does not graduate at the
end of the semester in which he applies for the diploma,
he must re-apply for it in the semester in which he expects
to graduate.
Academic costume is required of all candidates at com-
mencement exercises. Those who so desire may purchase
or rent caps and gowns at the University of Maryland stu-
dent supply store. Orders must be filed eight weeks before
the date of commencement but may be cancelled later if
the student finds himself unable to complete the re-
quirements for the degree.

The Department of Administration,
Supervision, and Curriculum offers
programs of study for the M.A.,
M.Ed., Ed.D., and Ph.D. degrees as
well as for the Advanced Graduate
Specialist certificate. Areas of
specialization include: administra-
tion, supervision, curriculum, higher
education, and educational tech-
nology. Programs in all areas are in-
dividually designed for public or
private elementary and secondary
school specialists, personnel in
higher education institutions of
education agencies.
Admission and Degree Information
Admission at the doctoral level is
based upon a number of criteria, in-
cluding grade-point average and
standardized test scores. Selective
screening of qualified applicants at
the master's, A.G.S., and doctoral
levels is necessary in terms of
limiting enrollment to the available
faculty resources of the Department.
The Department requires the
equivalent of at least one year of
residence for a doctoral degree. A
field internship or its equivalency, is
required of all A.G.S. and Ed.D.
candidates. This internship is per-
formed under faculty supervision in
schools, colleges or agencies, in
roles that are consistent with the
candidate's program emphasis.
Facilities and Special Resources
The Department has developed
close working relationships with
area schools, community colleges
and education agencies so that they
may serve as resouces for the
academic offerings on campus. Pro-
cedures have been established
which facilitate the use of these
agencies for research and field ex-
periences. The Educational Tech-
nology Center in the College of
Education is used extensively by
students in the Department, par-
ticularly those in curriculum.

The Department of Agricultural and
Resource Economics offers a course
of study leading to the degrees of
Master of Science and Doctor of
Philosophy. The graduate program
prepares students for careers by
means of courses in traditional sub-
ject matter areas, research ex-
periences designed to give com-
petency in scientific methodology,
and seminar and discussion
opportunities.
The Department provides for two
areas of specialization, agricultural
economics and resource economics.
Special fields in agricultural
economics include domestic and
foreign agricultural development, in-
ternational trade, agricultural
marketing, farm management and
production economics, agricultural
policy and econometrics. Special
fields in resource economics include
land use. marine resources, water
resources, and community and
resource development. Both areas of
specialization integrate opportunity
for study from a variety of
disciplines related to agricultural
and resource economics.
Admission and Degree Information
Thesis and non-thesis options are
available for the Master of Science
degree in both areas of specializa-
tion. The thesis option requires a
minimum of 24 hours course work
with six hours of thesis; the non-
thesis option requires 33 hours of
course work. Students taking the
non-thesis option, particularly in
resource economics, are urged to
participate in a two to three month
internship with a public or private
planning or management agency.
Applicants with strong undergrad-
uate records in diverse fields are
considered for admittance to the
Master of Science program.
Necessary course prerequisites
(without credit) can be completed
after admittance. The Graduate
Record Examination (GRE) Aptitude
Test scores are required with the
application.
Students with a bachelor's degree
generally enter the master's program
before applying for the doctoral pro-
gram. Applicants holding a master's
degree in an equivalent field from an
accredited institution may be ad-
mitted for immediate doctoral study.
A minimum of 48 hours of course
work beyond the bachelor's degree
and 12 hours of dissertation
research are required for the Ph.D.
degree. Qualifying examinations are
administered on completion of basic
theory course requirements, and
written and oral comprehensive ex-
aminations are held when all course
work has been completed. A final
oral examination is held for the stu-
Graduate Programs / 53
dent to defend the dissertation.
There is no foreign language require-
ment for any graduate degree.
The time required to complete a
master's degree is generally two
years, although it can be completed
in 18 months of concentrated effort.
The Ph.D. adds a minimum of two
years of fairly concentrated efforts.
Facilities and Special Resources
The Department actively employs
the resources of many state, federal,
and international agencies unique to
the Washington, D.C. area to offer
research and/or internship experi-
ence from the world of government
and business. The Library of Con-
gress in Washington and the Na-
tional Agricultural Library of
Beltsville (just north of the campus)
greatly enhance teaching and
research efforts.
Financial Assistance
Graduate assistantships are offered
to qualified applicants on the basis
of past academic performance and
experience. A large portion of the
full-time students in the Department
hold assistantships or some other
form of financial aid. Part-time and
summer work is often available for
students not receiving financial aid.

American Studies Program
Professor and Director: Wise
Professor: Corrigan
Associate Professors: Lounsbury, Mintz,
Pearson
Adjunct Professor: Washburn
American Studies offers an inter-
58 / Graduate Programs
disciplinary program of study lead-
ing to both the M.A. and Ph.D. Grad-
uate students in the field take (1)
courses in the various allied depart-
ments (e.g., anthropology, education,
English, history, journalism,
philosophy, sociology), and (2) in-
tegrating courses in the core pro-
gram taught by the core American
Studies faculty.
All students take the introductory
graduate proseminar — focused on
the history, theory, and methodology
of American culture studies. Other
graduate seminars vary from semes-
ter to semester — sometimes con-
centrating on a cultural time period
(e.g., ante-Bellum America, the
1930's, the 1960's), a particular mode
of cultural expression (e.g., film,
material culture, popular culture), an
individual with special cultural
resonance (e.g., Mencken), or a par-
ticular theme or movement (e.g.,
education in American culture,
literature considered in cultural con-
text). A special cooperative venture
enables students interested in ma-
terial culture to take substantial
course work at the Smithsonian
Institution.
Admission and Degree Information
Master's candidates normally under-
take a full year of course work (30
semester hours). All candidates are
required to take at least 12 hours of
core American Studies seminars —
6 hours of AMST 618 A and B, and 6
hours of AMST 628 and 629. In addi-
tion, candidates select an area of
concentration from courses offered
in allied departments — Anthro-
pology, Architecture, Art, Econom-
ics, Education, English, Geography,
Government and Politics, History,
Journalism, Music, Philosophy, Psy-
chology, Sociology, Speech and
Dramatic Arts.
Before receiving the M.A., candi-
dates take a comprehensive exami-
nation evaluating their ability to in-
tegrate various perspectives in the
program. Research oriented candi-
dates may choose to write a thesis
in place of six hours of course
credit.
Most students accepted for the
doctoral program already have an
M.A. in American Studies. Well
qualified candidates without an
American Studies M.A. may be ad-
mitted to the doctoral program, but
they may be required to make up
background deficiencies.
Core program requirements for
the Ph.D. are similar to those for the
M.A. — 12 hours of core American
Studies courses, 6 at the 618 level
and 6 in advanced seminars. The re-
mainder of the student's course
work is taken from courses in the
allied departments, and in other core
American Studies electives.
Ph.D. candidates must complete
at least 30 semester hours beyond
the M.A., including an 18-hour resi-
dency requirement. Candidates must
also demonstrate proficiency in a
tool (e.g., foreign language, com-
puter science), must pass a compre-
hensive examination, and must write
a dissertation based upon original
research and interpretation.
Facilities and Special Resources
The proximity of many federal insti-
tutions allows for a firsthand ap-
preciation of politics and contem-
porary life, while the facilities of the
National Archives and the Library of
Congress give the historian access
to the materials documenting the
experiences of past generations. Im-
portant galleries, including the Na-
tional Collection of Fine Arts and
the National Gallery of Art, exhibit
the high points of creative expres-
sion in the visual arts. The holdings
of the Smithsonian Institution pos-
sess numerous manifestations of
the native vernacular traditions in ar-
chitecture and technology, in the
folk arts, and in American Indian
culture. The District of Columbia
and its surrounding regions repre-
sent an impressive aggregate of as-
sociations and communities — alter-
natives to traditional politics such
as Common Cause, the focus upon
black cultural identity found in the
Anacostia Neighborhood Museum,
the new cities of Columbia,
Maryland and Reston, Virginia —
which seek to transcend the crises
of urban America in a creative
manner.
The program, drawing upon the
resources of its cultural environ-
ment, offers the individual an educa-
tion in the most meaningful sense; a
personal confrontation with aca-
demic tradition related to the proc-
esses of immediate and contem-
porary social change.
Financial Assistance
Some assistantships are available
through the departments for quali-
fied graduate students.

scores of the Graduate Record
Examination.
One course at the graduate level
in biochemistry and one in bio-
metrics and two credits of program
seminar are required for the M.S.
Degree. Students enrolled in the
non-thesis option are expected to
defend their scholarly paper in an
oral examination. Two academic
years, including the summer for
research, are usually required for
completing the M.S. Entering
students should have an academic
background commensurate with a
baccalaureate degree in the Animal
Sciences. Those not having a course
in genetics, nutrition, general animal
physiology, microbiology and animal
production or management should
plan to take such a course early in
their graduate program.
Ph.D. students entering from
other institutions with the Master's
or entering directly into the Ph.D.
program are expected to meet the
requirements indicated above. Two
additional credits in the program
seminar are required. The M.S. is
not a prerequisite for admission to
Ph.D. study: however, most students
find it advantageous. Students
usually complete the Ph.D. in two
years after the M.S.
Facilities and Special Resources
Faculty in the program are an out-
standing group representing re-
search accomplished in a wide vari-
ety of related fields. Excellent
supporting courses in physiology,
biochemistry and microbiology are

chromatography, atomic absorption
spectrophotometry, automated calor-
imetry, electron microscopy, liquid
scintillation radioactivity measure-
ments, electrophoresis, ultra cen-
trifugation and a variety of microbio-
logical techniques. Controlled en-
vironment facilities in the Center
permit work with laboratory animals
and detailed experiments on larger
animals. A gnotobiotic laboratory is
available and currently being used in
ruminent nutrition research. Excel-
lent surgical facilities are available
for research in the areas of repro-
ductive and nutritional physiology.
Herds and flocks of beef cattle,
dairy cattle, horses, sheep and
swine are readily available for grad-
uate research. Limited numbers of
experiments can be conducted on
the campus with large animals. Ex-
periments requiring large numbers
of animals are carried out at one of
four outlying farms.

The Interdisciplinary Applied
Mathematics Program offers the
degrees of Master of Arts and Doc-
tor of Philosophy. These are
awarded for graduate study and
research in mathematics and its ap-
plications in the engineering,
physical, and social sciences. In ad-
dition, the Applied Mathematics Pro-
gram offers certified minors in ap-
plied mathematics for graduate
students not enrolled in the
Program.
The Program is administratively
affiliated with the Department of
Mathematics. In particular, under
this arrangement the Department of
Mathematics assumes the respon-
sibility for the administration of the
applied mathematics courses under
the MAPL label. Moreover, the Grad-
uate Office of the Department main-
tains the records of all students in
the Applied Mathematics Program
and handles correspondence with
those applying for admission. How-
ever, it is important that any applica-
tion for admission indicates clearly
whether a student wishes to enter
the Mathematics (MATH) or the Ap-
plied Mathematics (MAPL) Program.
The faculty considers the primary
aim of applied mathematics to be
the understanding of a wide spec-
trum of scientific phenomena
through the use of mathematical
ideas, methods, and techniques. The
applied mathematician should be
both a mathematical specialist and
a versatile scientist, whose interests
and motivations derive from a strong
desire to confront highly complex or
descriptive situations with mathema-
tical analysis and ideas. In line with
this, at least half of the required
work is expected to be in courses
with primarily mathematical content,
and the remaining part has to in-
clude a coherent set of courses in
some field of application outside of
the usual mathematics curriculum.
Some of the areas currently pursued
by graduate students in the Program
are various areas of physics, infor-
mation structures, meteorology,
operations research, pattern recogni-
tion, structural mechanics, and
systems and control theory. Many
other areas of study are available
through the participating depart-
ments. It may also be noted that the
faculty includes a strong group in
numerical analysis and that many
students include courses on numer-
ical and scientific computing in their
programs.
Admission and Degree Information
In addition to the general require-
ments of the Graduate School, ap-
plicants for admission to graduate
study in the Program should have
completed, with at least a B average
(3.0 on a 4.0 scale), an undergrad-
uate program of study which in-
cludes a strong emphasis on mathe-
matics. The student's general ability
for graduate study in the Program
and mathematical capabilities will
be determined from his or her
record or by special examination.
A mathematical preparation with
grades of B or better at least
through the level of advanced calcu-
lus in a school of good academic
standing will normally be considered
sufficient demonstration of the re-
quired mathematical background.
Previous education in some part of
an applicant's area, such as physics,
one of the engineering disciplines,
economics, etc., and a basic com-
petence in computational tech-
niques will be favorably considered
in a student's application for admis-
sion to the Program, although this is
not a prerequisite.
When a student has decided upon
an area of specialization, a study ad-
visory committee is appointed by
the Director of the Program. This
committee, working together with
the student, is responsible for for-
mulating a course of study leading
toward the degree sought. This
course of study must constitute a
unified, coherent program in an ac-
ceptable field of specialization of
applied mathematics and must meet
with the approval of the Graduate
Committee for Applied Mathematics.
Besides any other requirements
specified by the Graduate School,
the following specific conditions
must be met for an M.A. degree in
Applied Mathematics:
(1) At least 12 of the 24 required
course credits for the M.A. degree
with thesis are in courses with
primarily mathematical content
62 / Graduate Programs
selected from a list of such courses
maintained by the Graduate Commit-
tee for Applied Mathematics. At
least 6 of these 12 credits are on
the 600-800 level. At least 3 of the
12 credits are in a course on numer-
ical analysis. At least 1 of the 12
credits is in an approved applied
mathematics seminar.
(2) The 24 required course credits
include either 6 credits at the
600-800 level, or alternatively, 9
credits of which 3 are at the
600-800 level, in courses whose
content is primarily in the student's
chosen field(s) of application.
No course may be used to meet
the requirements under both (1) and
(2) above.
(1) At least 15 of the 30 required
course credits for the non-thesis
master's option are in courses with
primarily mathematical content
selected from a list of courses main-
tained by the Graduate Committee
for Applied Mathematics. At least 9
of these 15 credits are in a course
on numerical analysis. At least 1 of
the 15 credits is an approved ap-
plied mathematics seminar.
(2) The 30 required course credits
include either 6 credits at the
600-800 level, or, alternately, 9
credits of which 3 are at the
600-800 level, in courses whose
content is primarily in the student's
chosen field(s) of application.
No course may be used to meet
the requirements under both (1) and
(2) above.
The student must pass the com-
prehensive examination for the M.A.
degree with thesis. The examination
consists of at least three parts, with
at least one of the parts in a math-
ematics area, and at least one of the
parts in an area of application. The
parts shall be taken as closely
together as possible.
The student in the doctoral pro-
gram must take a minimum of 36
hours of courses exclusive of disser-
tation research. At least 27 of these
36 credits are at the 600-800 level.
A transfer of at most 27 credits of
graduate-level work taken at a reg-
ionally accredited institution prior to
or after admission to the Ph.D. Pro-
gram is permitted providing the (1)
the Graduate Committee for Applied
Mathematics has approved the
transfer; (2) a grade of B or better
was earned in the courses taken (no
course with pass/fail grades will be
accepted); (3) the credit was earned
within the time limit imposed for
completing the Ph.D. degree at the
University of Maryland.
Course Distribution: 1) at least 18
of the required 36 credits are in
courses with primarily mathematical
content selected from a list of such
courses maintained by the Graduate
Committee for Applied Mathematics.
At least 9 of these 18 credits are on
the 600-800 level. At least 3 of the
18 credits are in numerical analysis.
At least 2 of the 18 credits are in
approved mathematics seminars. 2)
The 36 credits include either 6
credits at the 600-800 level or alter-
nately 9 credits of which 3 are at
the 600-800 level in courses whose
conten is primarily in the student's
chosen field(s) of application. 3) No
course may be used to meet the re-
quirements under both items (1) and
(2) above.
The student must pass the
comprehensive Examination for the
Ph.D. The examination consists of
at least three parts, with at least
one of the parts in an area of
mathematics, and at least one of the
parts in an area of application. The
parts shall be taken as closely
together as possible.
In addition the student must pass
the Candidacy Examination for the
Ph.D. degree. The Candidacy Ex-
amination is an oral examination
which serves as a test of the de-
tailed preparation of a student in the
area of specialization and seeks to
discover if he or she has a deep
enough understanding to carry out
the proposed research. The examina-
tion assumes further advanced
course work beyond the Comprehen-
sive Examination.
Certified Minors
The Applied Mathematics Program
offers certified minors in applied
mathematics to regular graduate
students who are enrolled in a
graduate degree program of the
University of Maryland other than
the Program itself. The successful
completion of the requirements for
such a minor will be recorded in the
student's transcripts. Moreover, a
number of departments participating
in the Applied Mathematics Program
permit the requirements for the cer-
tified minor to replace part of the
degree requirements of the major
department.
A student wishing to pursue a
certified minor in applied
mathematics must fill out an ap-
plication form for participation in
the Certified Minor Program. Such
forms are available from the office
of the Director of the Applied
Mathematics Program.
The Certified Minor Program at
the Master's level must contain at
least either 6 semester hours in
400-level courses and 3 semester
hours in 600-level courses, or 6
semester hours in 600-level courses.
At the doctoral level the Certified
Minor Program must contain at least
9 semester hours of graduate credit,
of which at most 3 hours may be on
the 400-level.

The Department of Art offers pro-
grams of graduate study leading to
the degrees of Master of Arts in art
history. Master of Fine Arts in
studio art and Doctor of Philosophy
in art history. Both disciplines,
rooted in the concept of art as a
humanistic experience, share an es-
sential common aim: the develop-
ment of the student's aesthetic
sensitivity, understanding and
knowledge. The major in art history
is committed to the advanced study
and scholarly interpretation of ex-
isting works of art, from the prehis-
toric era to the present, while the
studio major stresses the student's
direct participation in the creation of
works of art.
Admission and Degree Information
For admission to graduate study in
studio art, an undergraduate degree
with an art major from an accredited
college or university, or its equiv-
alent, is required. The candidate
should have approximately 30 credit
hours of undergraduate work in
studio courses and 12 credit hours
in art history courses. Other
humanities area courses should be
part of the candidate's undergradu-
ate preparation. In addition, special
departmental requirements must be
met. A candidate for the Master of
Fine Arts degree will be required to
pass an oral comprehensive exami-
nation, present an exhibition of his
thesis work, write an abstract based
on the thesis, and present an oral
defense of the thesis.
For admission to graduate study
in art history, in addition to the ap-
proved undergraduate degree, or its
equivalent, special departmental re-
quirements must be met. Depart-
mental requirements for the Master
of Arts degree in Art History include
ARTH 692; reading knowledge of
French or German (evidenced by an
examination administered by the Art
Department); a written comprehen-
sive examination which tests the
candidate's knowledge and compre-
hension of principal areas and
phases of art history; a thesis which
demonstrates competency in re-
search and in original investigation
by the candidate; and a final oral ex-
amination on the thesis and the
field which it represents.
Requirements for the Doctor of
Philosophy degree in Art History in-
clude ARTH 692; reading knowledge
of French and German; an oral ex-
amination and a written examina-
tion; a dissertation which demon-
strates the candidate's capacity to
perform independent research in the
field of art history; and a final oral
examination on the dissertation and
the field it represents.
Applicants are encouraged to sub-
mit their applications by early March
for entrance in the fall and by early

The Astronomy Program, ad-
ministratively part of the Department
of Physics and Astronomy, offers
programs of study leading to the
degrees of M.S. and Ph.D. in
Astronomy. The M.S. program in-
cludes both thesis and non-thesis
options. Areas of specialization in-
clude: galactic structure, interstellar
medium, extragalactic astronomy,
stellar atmospheres, stellar evolu-
tion, solar physics, solar system,
celestial mechanics, astronomical in-
strumentation, and cometary
studies.
A full schedule of courses in all
fields of astronomy is offered in-
cluding galactic astronomy, astro-
physics, solar system astronomy,
observational astronomy, celestial
mechanics, solar physics, study of
the interstellar medium and ex-
tragalactic astronomy. The faculty
has expertise in most major
branches of astronomy. The
research program is centered around
several major areas of interest. The
first one is the study of our galaxy;
its large-scale spiral structure, detail-
ed structure and theory of in-
terstellar gas clouds, the theory of
the interaction between cosmic rays
and the gas, and the distribution of
different types of stars. The second
is the study of stellar atmospheres
and interiors, including also the
solar atmosphere, stellar evolution,
and planetary nebulae. The third
area is the structure of extragalactic
radio sources. Research is also
done on the physics of the solar
system.
Admission and Degree Information
No formal undergraduate course
work in astronomy is required.
However, an entering student should
have a working knowledge of the
68 / Graduate Programs
basic facts of astronomy such as is
obtainable from one of the many
elementary textbooks. A more ad-
vanced knowledge of astronomy will
of course enable a student to pro-
gress more rapidly during the first
year of graduate work.
Normally a satisfactory score on
the GRE Advanced Test in Physics
is required before an applicant's ad-
mission to the Graduate School will
be considered. In special cases, the
Graduate Entrance Committee may
waive this requirement, and set
other conditions as a requirement
for admission, to be fulfilled either
before admission or during the first
year at Maryland.
Qualification for the Ph.D. pro-
gram (which is decided in the mid-
dle or at the end of the second year)
requires a written examination on
basic astronomy at the end of the
first year and an extensive research
project during the second year.
Overall performance in the exam,
course work and research deter-
mines admission to the Ph.D.
program.
All students must demonstrate
competence both in theoretical
astrophysics and in radio and op-
tical observing techniques. The
former can normally be satisfied by
taking ASTR 650, 651 and the latter
by taking ASTR 411. All students
must take at least two credits of
ASTR 698. No other Astronomy
courses are specifically required, but
candidates for the Ph.D. should ex-
pect to take a number of courses at
the 600 level according to their
interests.
Candidates for the Master of
Science Degree with thesis are re-
quired to obtain 24 credits (exclusive
of registration for masters research)
of which at least 12 are in the major
area and at least 12 must be at the
600 level (not necessarily the same
12). In addition, at least 6 credits
must be in a related field (support-
ing area).
To obtain the Master of Science
Degree without a thesis, 6 credits in
the major at the 600 level are re-
quired in addition to the general re-
quirements described above. That is,
a total of 30 credits are required, of
which 18 must be in the major, and
at least 18 at the 600 level. The stu-
dent must also pass a written ex-
amination, usually consisting of the
written part of the Ph.D. Qualifying
Examnation with appropriately
chosen passing requirements.
Facilities and Special Resources
The Astronomy Program carries on
an extensive research program in
the areas discussed above with the
graduate students playing an active
role in this research. Approximately
one-fourth of all research papers
published have a graduate student
as one of the authors. The Program
maintains a small optical obser-
vatory on campus. Due to the site,
its main use is to enable students
to gain experience in observational
techniques and to test out new
equipment. There is an important ef-
fort in the program devoted to the
development of optical instrumenta-
tion. A Fourier Transform Spec-
trometer is now essentially opera-
tional and a photoelectric Fabry
Perot Interferometer is being
developed.
The Program also operates a radio
observatory near Borrego Springs,
California. This is designed to oper-
ate at meter wavelengths and is one
of the major long wavelength ob-
servatories in the country. A major
commitment of this observatory will
be to solar research, with the im-
mediate aim of developing a radio
heliograph which can provide real
time mapping of the radio sun. Work
will also go on there in the areas of
galactic and extragalactic radio
astronomy.
The library facilities of the Pro-
gram have recently benefited from
the acquisition of a major new col-
lection. Reorganization of the cur-
rent facilities is in process. When
completed, the Astronomy library
should be one of the foremost col-
lections in the country.
The Program has strong interac-
tion with the national astronomy
observatories, and many of the
students and faculty carry on
observing programs at them. There
are also very close ties with
neighboring scientific institutes. A
major program of cooperative
research has been established with
the Goddard Space Flight Center
and a number of graduate students
carry on research programs there.
There are also close contacts with

preparation. Successful students in
the program are expected to
demonstrate the following: (1) a
thorough and integrated knowledge
of the basic tools, concepts and
theories relating to professional
management; 2) behavioral and
analytical skills necessary to deal
creatively and effectively with
organizations and management prob-
lems; 3) an understanding of the
economic, political, technological,
and social environments in which or-
ganizations operate. 4) a sense of
professional and personal integrity
and social responsibility in the con-
duct of managerial affairs both inter-
nal and external to the organization.
Both day and some evening courses
are offered.
If the student's prior coursework
did not include the program pre-
requisites, the following 500-level
prerequisite courses must be com-
pleted with a "B" average as early
as possible in the student's
graduate program: BMGT 501 (3
hours), BMGT 502 (3 hours), BMGT
503 (3 hours), BMGT 504 (4 hours).
These basic knowledge courses may
be waived by the Director of the
MBA Program if equivalent courses
have been satisfactorily completed.
Students whose baccalaureate de-
gree is in business administration
will ordinarily have included the
topics covered by these prerequisite
courses in their undergraduate work.
For the MBA degree they will need
only the 35 credit hours described
below. These 35 hours must be
taken in 700-level courses and above
(600-level and above for courses in
other campus graduate programs).
A group of eight graduate courses
(23 hours) is required of all MBA
students: BMGT 720 (3 hours):
BMGT 732 or 734 (4 hours); BMGT
740 (3 hours); BMGT 750 (3 hours);
BMGT 764 (3 hours): BMGT 775 (3
hours); BMGT 790 or 791 (3 hours);
and BMGT 701 (1 hour). This com-
mon core provides the student with
a knowledge of behavioral and an-
alytical skills as well as a thorough
understanding of managerial
economics and the functional fields
necessary for all professional
managers.
The student has the opportunity
to select a field of concentration
and/or relevant electives with the re-
maining four graduate courses (12
credits). A field of concentration is
defined as a minimum of six hours
and a maximum of twelve hours in
an area including the following: (1)
Accounting; (2) Finance (minimum of
9 hours required); (3) International
Business; (4) Information Systems
Management; (5) Marketing (mini-
mum of 9 hours required); (6)
Management Science and Statistics;
(7) Organizational Behavior and
Organization Theory; (8) Personnel
and Labor Relations; and (9) Trans-
portation and Physical Distribution.
Any elective courses used to fulfill
degree requirements should be rele-
vant to the student's area of con-
centration and/or educational needs.
There is no thesis requirement for
MBA degree.
Students accepted on the basis of
applications requesting full-time
status must maintain minimum reg-
istration requirements described in
this catalog under, "Registration and
Credits." Students requesting part-
time status are required to complete
a minimum of 12 credit hours per
calendar year. Should these require-
ments not be met or should a stu-
dent's grade point average fall below
3.0, a student will be placed on pro-
bation and granted a minimum of
one semester to remedy these
deficiencies.
The DBA program is designed to
produce outstanding scholars in
management related disciplines.
Graduates of the program are well-
qualified to take faculty profes-
sional, research, or administrative
positions in colleges and universi-
ties, government agencies, private
research organizations, or business
firms.
The Maryland DBA's achieve ex-
cellence through (1) extensive prep-
aration in major and related fields,
(2) joint research with faculty and
fellow DBA students, (3) indepen-
dent research culminating in the
writing of a doctoral dissertation,
and (4) the teaching of courses in
their major field.
Each student's DBA program
must be approved initially by the
student's major area faculty chair-
man or his or her representative and
reviewed annually with the student.
Minor areas must be approved ini-
tially by the minor area chairman or
his or her designated representative.
Major and minor areas in the col-
lege include the following: (1) Ac-
counting, (2) Finance. (3) Manage-
ment Science and Statistics, (4) Mar-
keting, (5) Organizational Behavior
and Organization Theory, (6) Person-
nel and Labor Relations. (7) Trans-
portation and Physical Distribution,
and (8) Information Systems
Management.
DBA requirements for the typical
student are approximately 75 se-
mester hours, not including disser-
tation credits. Thirty-three of the 75
semester hours are devoted to ful-
filling the general requirements, dis-
cussed below, with the remaining 42
credits distributed among the stu-
dent's major and minor fields of
study.
The general requirements for all
DBA students are BMGT 720, BMGT
740, BMGT 750. BMGT 764, two
three-credit graduate courses in
economics (BMGT 775 may be used
as one of the two courses), nine
credits in quantitative methods at
the 700 level or above approved by
the student's faculty chairman, and
BMGT 880 plus three additional
graduate credits in research
methodology.
These general program require-
ments may be waived by the Direc-
tor of the Doctoral Program if
equivalent courses at AACSB ac-
credited schools have been satisfac-
torily completed. Some of these
courses may be included in the ma-
jor and minor course requirements.
The DBA student is placed on
academic probation after 12 hours
unless he or she maintains at least
a 3.25 GPA. The probationary period
will last one semester, at which
time the student will be dismissed
unless a 3.25 GPA level is obtained.
The DBA student may select a
single major with two minors or a
double major. For a single major,
the student takes 18 credits beyond
the bachelor's degree in the major
field, at least 6 of which must be
taken in graduate seminars at the
800 level at the University of Mary-
land. The minors may include areas
inside or outside the College of
Business and Management. Each
minor is comprised of 12 credits.
For a double major, the student
takes 21 credit hours in each of two
major fields, one of which may be in
a discipline outside the College of
Business and Management.
Both the single and the double
major arrangements comprise 42
credit hours in total. Special permis-
sion is required from the College's
graduate committee to approve a
double major or a single major with
both minors in disciplines outside
the College of Business and Man-
agement. Typical outside minors in-
clude such areas as Computer
Science. Economics, Engineering,
Mathematics, Government and Pol-
itics, Psychology, and Sociology.
Students take comprehensive ex-
aminations in major and minor sub-
ject areas. Following successful
completion of the written examina-
Graduate Programs / 73
tions, each student must pass an
oral examination given by a commit-
tee of the college graduate faculty.
Any student receiving a "pass with
distinction" in all written examina-
tions will be exempted from the oral
comprehensive.
The dissertation proposal is de-
fended by each DBA candidate at an
open meeting. All faculty and other
DBA students are invited to attend
and participate in the proposal
defense.
The dissertation must exhibit the
candidate's competence in analysis,
interpretation, and presentation of
research findings, and should be a
major contribution to the literature
of the field. The candidate must de-
fend his or her dissertation in a final
oral dissertation defense.
MBA/JD Joint Program
The College of Business and
Management and the School of Law
of the University of Maryland at Bal-
timore offer a joint program of
studies leading to MBA and JD de-
grees. Under the terms of the joint
program, a student may earn both
degrees in four academic years. The
accelerated program is made possi-
ble by permitting some courses to
be credited toward both degrees.
Candidates must apply for admis-
sion to the Law School at Baltimore
as well as to The Graduate School
at College Park and must be ad-
mitted to both programs.
Under the joint program, 75
credits in law school coupled with
39 credits in business courses (or 26
credits for students who have com-
pleted MBA program prerequisites)
are required for graduation. Nine
credits of law will be substituted for
MBA elective coursework. Grade
point averages in each program will
be computed separately and stu-
dents must maintain minimum stan-
dards in each school to continue in
the program. The Graduate School
will not accept transfer credit for
coursework taken outside the joint
program. Both programs must be
satisfactorily completed for granting
of degrees. A student whose enroll-
ment in either program is terminated
may elect to complete work for the
degree in which he or she remains
enrolled but such completion must
be upon the same conditions as re-
quired of regular (nonjoint program)
degree candidates. Student pro-
grams must be approved by the law
school adviser for the joint program
and the MBA Program Director. For
further discussion of admission and
degree requirements, students

This curriculum is under the com-
bined sponsorship of the Institute
for Physical science and Technol-
ogy, Department of Chemistry, and
the Department of Physics and As-
tronomy. It is designed to train
students for research in this rapidly
expanding interdisciplinary field.
Areas of study include: astrophys-
ical spectroscopy, atmospheric
physics and chemistry, bioengineer-
ing, biophysics, critical phenomena,
infrared and Raman spectroscopy,
Intermolecular forces, Interstellar
molecules, laser spectroscopy, light
scattering, liquid crystals, low
temperature physics, microwave and
mser spectroscopy, molecular struc-
ture, NMR and ESR spectroscopy,
physics and chemistry at high
pressure, quantum mechanics, reac-
tion kinetics, solid state physics,
statistical mechanics, transport
phenomena, vacuum UV spectro-
scopy, x-ray diffraction.
Admission and Degree Information
This program is open to graduate
students admitted to the Depart-
ments of Chemistry and Physics
and Astronomy and offers a course
of study leading to the degrees of
Master of Science and Doctor of
Philosophy. Entering students are
expected to have an undergraduate
degree in either chemistry or
physics with a strong background in
the other discipline. However, a
mathematics or engineering major
may also be eligible.
The course program will be ad-
justed to the needs of the individual
student, who is required to pass a
qualifying examination (a version of
the Physics qualifier, modified to
emphasize the atomic properties of
matter). The successful Ph.D. stu-
dent should end with a mastery of
quantum mechanics, and have taken
advanced courses in molecular
structure (PHYS 723 or CHEM 685)
and thermodynamics and inter-
molecular forces (CHEM 687 or 704).
In keeping with the interdisciplinary
nature of the Program, 9 credits in
Chemistry are required from under-
graduate Physics majors; 9 credits
in Physics are required from
undergraduate Chemistry majors.
Research problems in chemical phy
sics may be supervised by the facul-
ty in the Department of Chemistry,
the Department of Physics and
Astronomy, or the Institute for Phys-
ical Science and Technology. The
program is supervised by a commit-
tee from the above units. Courses
will be taken from other programs.
The program employs an oral ex-
amination, subsequent to the writ-
ten, which is the defense of a
modest research proposal. This
feature provides two means for
gauging the student's level of
sophistication and understanding.
Financial Assistance
The degree is granted by the depart-
ment or program of origin, that is,
physics, chemistry, meteorology,
etc., and financial assistance
depends on assignment as teaching
or research assistants with in-
dividual departments or research
groups.

The Department of Civil Engineering
offers graduate work leading to the
degrees of Master of Science and
Doctor of Philosophy. All programs
are planned on an individual basis
by the student and his advisor to
consider the student's background
and special interests. Courses and
research opportunities are available
in the general areas of transporta-
tion and urban systems, environmen-
tal engineering and water resources,
structural engineering, and soil
mechanics. In general, emphasis is
on learning sound engineering prin-
ciples and applying them, to provide
for the needs of man.
Admission and Degree Information
Applicants for admission should
hold a B.S. degree in Civil Engineer-
ing. However, applicants with under-
graduate degrees in other disci-
plines may be accepted with the
stipulation that deficiencies in
prerequisite undergraduate course
work be corrected before enrolling
in graduate courses. There are no
entrance examinations required for
the program.
Two options are available for the
Master of Science degree; thesis
and non-thesis. The Department's
policies and requirements are the
same as the requirements of the
Graduate School.
The requirements for the Doctor
of Philosophy degree are the same
as those imposed by the Graduate
School. An individual program of
study to suit the needs of the stu-
dent is developed by the student
and his advisor. The equivalent of
two years of full-time study beyond
the Master of Science degree is the
minimum requirement. The student
must pass a qualifying examination
before being admitted to candidacy.
Normally, the qualifying exam is
taken one year after the completion
of the M.S. degree. There is no
language requirement for the Ph.D.
degree.
Facilities and Special Resources
The research facilities of the Depart-
ment are available to graduate stu-
dents. These include laboratories in
the following areas; transportation,
systems analysis, environmental, hy-
draulics, structures, remote sensing,
and soil mechanics. A UNIVAC 1106
and a UNIVAC 1108, complemented
by remote access units located in
the Department and engineering
building, are available.
The Washington and Baltimore
Metropolitan Areas are easily ac-
cessible for data.field studies, library
access, contacts with national orga-
nizations and attendance at national
meetings. The location of the Uni-
versity of Maryland offers a unique
opportunity to obtain an advanced
degree in Civil Engineering.

The Program in Comparative
Literature offers graduate work
leading to the degrees of Master of
Arts and Doctor of Philosophy.
The CMLT Program draws on a
distinguished faculty in several
departments and offers concen-
trated work in Medieval and Ren-
aissance studies, and in major
movements and genres of the mod-
ern period including the Eighteenth
Century. Though the focus of
courses and seminars is usually
specifically literary, interdisciplinary
work is very much encouraged as is
practical criticsm in the arts. Depart-
ments cooperating in the Program
include: American Studies, Classics,
English, French and Italian, German
and Slavic, History, Spanish and
Portuguese, Dramatic Arts, Radio-
Television-Film, and the Women's
Studies Programs.
Admission and Degree Information
Applicants should have a strong
background in the arts and human-
ities. Since advanced work in Com-
parative Literature is based on the
premise that literature should be
read in the original whenever possi-
ble, students are expected to be
able to read at least one language
other than English with a high de-
gree of aesthetic appreciation. Ph.D.
students are expected to use at
least two foreign languages actively
in their work, and it is assumed that
88 / Graduate Programs
efforts will be made to develop an
acquaintance with one or two addi-
tional languages. Entrance examina-
tions are not required, but high
scores on GRE literature and
language examinations will add
weight to applications.
Students take courses in CMLT
and in two other departments of
literature. The M.A. degree requires
thirty hours, either 24 hours of
course work and a thesis, or thirty
hours of course work and a com-
prehensive examination. No specific
number of hours is required for the
Ph.D.. as the number will vary
according to the preparation and
goals of the individual student; the

Historically, the programs of the
Department of Counseling and Per-
sonnel Services have been respon-
sive to societal needs in providing
leadership in the training of
specialized personnel service
workers. The programs are designed
for the preparation of professionals
who serve in a variety of social set-
tings including schools, colleges,
rehabilitative agencies, government
agencies and other community
agencies. These professionals may
serve one of several roles either at
the practitioner's level or at an ad-
vanced level of leadership, supervi-
sion and research. Programs of
preparation for practitioners are of-
fered at the master's and Advanced
Graduate Specialist level while the
advanced offerings for researchers,
supervisors, and personnel ad-
ministrators are conducted at the
doctoral level. The master's and Ad-
vanced Graduate Specialist pro-
grams are offered among the follow-
ing six specialty programs within
the Department.
1) The Elementary School Coun-
seling Specialty Program prepares
the student as a child development
consultant, individual and group
counselor and coordinator of pupil
services. 2) The Secondary School
Counseling Program prepares the
student to serve as a member of a
human resources team in individual
and group counseling, as informa-
tion specialist regarding personal,
social, educational and vocational
matters, and pupil personnel pro-
gram coordination. 3) The School
Psychology Program prepares the
student to be certified as a school
psychologist where his principal
functions are to assess
psychological conditions and devise
intervention strategies to enhance
the learning of pupils. 4) The Col-
lege Student Personnel Specialty
Program prepares specialists at the
higher education level in two areas
of concentration: college counseling
and Student Personnel Administra-
tion which includes areas such as
Student Development, Student
Union, Housing, Admissions, Place-
ment, Deans of Students and Vice
Presidents of Student Affairs. 5) The
Community Counseling Specialty
92 / Graduate Programs
Program provides three emphases
within the program: Career develop-
ment and vocational counseling,
personal-social counseling and com-
munity mental health consultation,
and adult counseling. 6) The
Rehabilitation Counseling Specialty
Program prepares counselors to
work with mentally, emotionally,
socially and physically handicapped
persons in public and private
agencies.
The doctoral programs in
Counseling and Personnel Services
are designed to prepare students to
achieve exceptional competence in
the areas of research, theory, and
practice related to personnel ser-

Tennyson
Assistant Professors: Debro, B. Johnson,
K. Johnson, McKenzie, Minor
The Program of graduate study
leading to a Master of Arts and
Ph.D. degree in the area of Criminal
Justice and Criminology is intended
to prepare students for research,
teaching and professional employ-
ment in the operational agencies in
the field of criminal justice. This
program combines an intensive
background in a social science
discipline such as sociology,
psychology, public administration,
etc., with graduate-level study of
94 / Graduate Programs
selected aspects of the criminal
justice field.
Admission and Degree Information
In addition to the general Graduate
School requirements,, special admis-
sion requirements include the
Graduate Record Examination Ap-
titude Test, a major in a social
science discipline, and 9 hours of
course work in the appropriate area
of criminal justice. For the M.A. ap-
plicant, the undergraduate social
science major must have included at
least one course each in theory,
statistics and research methods.
The Ph.D. applicant must have com-
pleted two statistics, two research
methods and two theory courses,
one of each being at the
master's-level. Admission to the
Ph.D. program presupposes comple-
tion of the M.A. degree. At the
discretion of the Graduate Admis-
sions Committee of the Institute,
deficiencies in some of the above
areas may be made up by noncredit
work at the beginning of the
program.
Students enrolled in the M.A. pro-
gram have two options: a
Criminology option and a Criminal
Justice option. The general plan of
study for both options, totaling to 30
semester hours, is as follows: 1)
Three social science courses on an
appropriate level in theory,
methodology, and statistics. 2) Three
appropriate-level courses in Crim-
inology or Law Enforcement,
depending upon the option. Two of
these must be at the 600 level or
above. One of these should be a
general seminar dealing with the
overall field of criminal justice
(LENF 600). 3) Two elective courses.
4) Tutorial courses may be taken on-
ly as elective courses. 5) The stu-
dent has a choice between: a) an
M.A. degree with an M.A. thesis, b)
an M.A. degree without thesis, but
with some additional requirements.
For completion of the Ph.D.
degree, in addition to the general
Graduate School Ph.D. requirements,
competence in the theory of at least
one social science discipline, in
research methodology and in quan-
titative techniques is expected, as
well as competence in the general
theory of the criminal justice field
and in the specialization area se-
lected by the student. The
necessary coursework is determined
on the basis of the student's
previous preparation, needs, and in-
terests. The candidate is required to
pass 4 comprehensive examinations.
Financial Assistance
Several graduate teaching assistant-
ships are available on a competitive
basis. Further, graduate research
assistantships are sometimes
available for graduate students to
participate in research projects
directed by faculty members and
funded by outside sources.

Entomology Program
Professor and Chairman: Steinhauer
Professors: Bickley, Davidson, Harrison,
Jones, Menzer, Messersmith, Wirth
Associate Professors: Caron, Miller,
Reichelderfer, Wood
Assistant Professors: Armstrong, Denno,
Dively, Hellman, Linduska, Nelson
Lecturer: Spang ler
The Department of Entomology of-
fers both the M.S. and Ph.D. de-
grees. Graduate students may spe-
cialize in physiology and morphol-
ogy, toxicology, biosystematics,
ecology and behavior, medical ento-
mology, apiculture, insect pathology,
economic entomology and pest
management.
Admission and Degree Information
Students applying for graduate work
in entomology are expected to have
strong backgrounds in the biological
sciences, chemistry and mathemat-
ics. Since the Department is par-
ticularly anxious to find strong basic
preparation, an undergraduate major
in entomology is not required for ad-
mission to the program. Students
lacking certain specific courses in
their undergraduate program may
need to extend the normal period of
time required for the degree.
In the M.S. and Ph.D. programs,
the student is given great latitude in
the selection of the advisory study
committee, choice of the major
study areas and supporting course
work and choice of the research pro-
gram. The M.S. degree is awarded
following the successful completion
of the course requirements and a
satisfactory thesis. A non-thesis
M.S. option is available for those in-
terested in qualifying as pest man-
agement specialists. In this program
a field experience course including a
comprehensive report is substituted
for the thesis.
The demonstration of competence
in one foreign language is required
for the Ph.D. Upon admission to the
Ph.D. program, the student is given
a preliminary interview (which may
be combined with the M.S. final oral
examination) in which the program
of course work and collateral read-
ing, the plan for demonstration of
competence in the foreign language
chosen, and the general outline of
the proposed research area are es-
tablished and approved. Following
the completion of most course work
and the demonstration of foreign
language competency, the oral quali-
fying examination is administered
before the student applies for ad-
mission to candidacy.
Facilities and Special Resources
Facilities are maintained in the
Department for research in all areas
of specialization offered, and in
addition, cooperative programs with
other departments in Agricultural
and Life Sciences are possible. Co-
operative research programs are
often maintained by the Department
with several government agencies,
such as the Beltsville Agricultural
Research Center, the U.S. National
Museum of Natural History, and the
Walter Reed Army Institute of Re-
search. Specialized facilities are fre-
quently made available to graduate
students in these programs. In many
instances graduates of the programs
in entomology find employment in
such government agencies because
of the contacts made in these co-
operative projects.
Financial Assistance
There are a limited number of
teaching and research assistant-
ships available to entomology grad-
uate students on a competitive
basis. Several part-time employment
opportunities are available in govern-
mental and private research and de-
velopmental laboratories in the area.
Additional Information
The Department's "Guidelines for
Graduate Students" give additional
information on the graduate pro-
gram, including requirements for ad-
mission, course requirements, ex-
aminations, seminars and research
areas and facilities. Copies ina
available from the Department of En-
tomology, University of Maryland.

sponsive to the contemporary needs
of families and the most effective
ways of providing programs and ser-
vices in the community.
The program objectives of the De-
partment of Family and Community
Development are directed toward ed-
ucating professionals who are pre-
pared to develop and direct a variety
of programs and services that are
both family-oriented and community
based. The areas of specialization in
the Department are: family studies,
community studies with particular
emphasis on programs serving fami-
lies, and management and consumer
112 / Graduate Programs
studies. Faculty members use and
encourage an interdisciplinary ap-
proach to the study of human prob-
lems related to social change and to
helping students become agents of
change, through the family unit.
An integrated practicum experi-
ence is offered which enables stu-
dents to work directly with families
and community agencies.
Admission and Degree Information
The Department will continue to
adopt the policies of the Graduate
School as the basic criteria for ad-
mission to the Master's program. In
addition, it is recommended that in-
dividuals take the Aptitude section
of the GRE, and have adequate un-
dergraduate preparation in one or
more of the following areas: family
development, psychology, sociology,
or human ecology. A course in ele-
mentary statistics at the undergrad-
uate level is required.
The Master's program is 30 hours.
The student may choose either the
thesis or non-thesis option. Six
hours of thesis research are re-
quired for those students selecting
the thesis option. The non-thesis op-
tion permits more extensive field
experience in lieu of the research
thesis. Any student selecting this
option will complete 30 hours of
course work with oral and written
comprehensive examinations upon
completion.

The Food Science Program offers
the Master of Science and Doctor of
Philosophy degrees. The Program is
interdepartmental with participation
or support from the Departments of
Animal Science, Dairy Science, Hor-
ticulture, Poultry Science, Agricul-
tural Engineering, Chemistry, and
Agricultural and Resource
Economics. Programs of study and
research are individually planned
with the student and an appropriate
committee. Areas of study encom-
pass animal, plant, seafood, and
fabricated food products. Specializa-
tion is available in food micro-
biology and fermentations, food
chemistry and biochemistry, quality
assurance, food engineering and
product development, nutritional
evaluation, food sanitation, packag-
ing, and distribution.
Admission and Degree Information
There are no special admission re-
quirements above those required by
the Graduate School. The Food
Science Admissions Committee
evaluates and makes recommenda-
tions on all applications based on
academic and professional ex-
perience and letters of recommenda-
tions (at least 3 required). When
feasible the Committee may conduct
a personal interview. In the absence
of a bachelor's degree in Food
Science or Food Technology a
strong background in physical and
biological sciences is recommended.
Inadequate prerequisites may result
in a recommendation to complete a
remedial program as a special stu-
dent, undergraduate status. Program
requirements are as follows: 1) Food
Science; the equivalent of the
following courses: FDSC 412, 413,
Principles of Food Processing;
FDSC 421, Food Chemistry; FDSC
430, Food Microbiology; FDSC 431,
Food Quality Control. 2) Biochem-
istry — minimum of 3 hours
graduate credit. 3) Colloquium
(seminar). Attendance each semester
and at least 2 presentations for
credit during the program of study.
4) Provisional requirements based
on admission must be satisfied as
soon as practical.
For the M.S. degree, a student
must complete the program of study
as approved by his committee which
will include the minimum require-
ments. Students entering the Pro-
gram without a background in Food
Science will probably complete
about 30 hours of course work to
obtain the M.S. degree. For the M.S.
with thesis, a research proposal
must be submitted to the student's
committee for review and approval
by the end of the second semester
of study. Students who for various
reasons or circumstances cannot
readily satisfy the thesis research
may complete an additional 6 hours
of courses at the 600 level in addi-
tion to the program requirements
above. A scholarly paper on a sub-
ject approved by the committee
must be prepared and presented at
a regular FDSC colloquium. A final
comprehensive examination in-
cluding defense of the scholarly
paper will be conducted by the stu-
dent's committee. Part of this ex-
amination will be written. The above
programs should be completed
within 3 semesters and a summer
session.
For admission to the doctoral pro-
gram, the M.S. degree is not re-
quired but is generally recom-
mended. Students completing an
M.S. degree in the FDSC Program,
UMCP must receive a favorable
recommendation from the M.S.
degree final examining committee.
Students admitted from outside the
FDSC Program, UMCP will be exam-
ined orally by their committee as a
basis for developing a suitable pro-
gram of study. The student must
complete a program of study as ap-
proved by the student's committee
including minimum requirements of
the Graduate School and FDSC Pro-
gram requirements. There is no re-
quired number of hours of course
work. Programs are developed on an
individual basis. There is no
language requirement. A proposal
for dissertation research must be
presented to the student's commit-
116 / Graduate Programs
tee for review and approval by the
end of the third semester of study.
A comprehensive oral examination
will be conducted by the committee
and other interested faculty
members after substantial comple-
tion of the program of study and
usually before the end of the fourth
semester. Satisfactory performance
in this examination is required
before recommendation for admis-
sion to candidacy is granted. Each
student will assist in teaching at
least one course regardless of
whether employed as a graduate
assistant. The candidate will defend
the dissertation before a committee
of at least 5 members appointed by
the Dean for Graduate Studies. The
candidate's advisor is usually chair-
man of the committee. It is recom-
mended that the candidate prepare
initial drafts of intended publications
for review before the final examina-
tion. This program should be com-
pleted in 3 years or less depending
on the candidate's previous
background.

The Department of French and
Italian prepares students for the
M.A. and Ph.D. degrees in French
language and literature. The com-
position of the Graduate faculty and
the variety of course offerings make
it possible for students to specialize
in any period or movement of
French literature or any aspect of
the French language, with the con-
sent of their advisers.
Admission and Degree Information
Entry into the M.A. program is open
to students having a solid grounding
in French language and literature.
All applicants, whether graduates of
the University of Maryland or not,
must take all parts of the G.R.E., in-
cluding the Advanced Examination
in French.
The students' knowledge of
French is screened at the beginning
of their first semester through a
Language Proficiency Examination.
In addition to evidence of indepen-
dent scholarly research in the form
of a thesis (thesis option) or a
substantial research paper (non-
thesis option), successful comple-
tion of the M.A. program involves
passing a comprehensive examina-
tion ( a six-hour written examination
followed by a one-hour oral examina-
tion) in French literature from the
Middle Ages to the present. The
M.A. program is generally completed
in four semesters, or less if Summer
Session offerings are utilized.
Entry into the Ph.D. program is
open to the most highly qualified
and most highly motivated can-
didates, who can show that in-
dividual research is their major in-
terest and who give evidence of
strong qualifications to pursue that
interest.
All applicants for the Ph.D. pro-
gram (except M.A. graduates of this
Department) must pass a three-part
preliminary examination ad-
ministered at the start of the Fall
semester, consisting of an explica-
tion de texte, an essay and an oral
examination, before being fully ad-
mitted to the program. They are
then required to complete a program
of seminars related to their field of
interest and to pass five Special
Topic examinations and a Foreign
Language translation examination
before being admitted to candidacy
and beginning work on their disser-
tation.
Facilities and Special Resources

Geography Program

Professors: Deshler, Fonaroff
Associate Professors: Brodsky, Chaves.
Groves, Mitchell, Thompson,
Wiedel
Assistant Professors: Christian,
Cirrincione, Garst, Petzold,
Roswell, Thorn,
The programs for both the Master of
Arts and Doctor of Philosophy
degrees in the Department of
Geography are designed to provide
the student with an opportunity for
specialization in several areas.
Considering particular advantages
inherent in the College Park location
the Department has built its grad-
uate program around three major
areas of concentration and has
assembled in each a group of facul-
ty members with complementary
and overlapping interests. The areas
are: 1) Physical geography with em-
phasis on physical systems involv-
ing the inter-relationships between
landforms, climate, and other en-
vironmental elements and their rela-
tionship with man's activities. The
University's meteorology program
and Water Resources Research
Center and work in agriculture and
biology provide support for this pro-
gram as do various Federal Govern-
ment environmental programs and
the special consortium studying
Chesapeake Bay and its resources.
2) A cultural-historical geography
area, with particular attention to
tropical settlement and resource
utilization, health and disease, and
various themes of historical geo-
graphy of the Americas. This
specialty draws on the incomparable
archival material in the Washington
area, in state historical agencies,
and in Baltimore. 3) The geography
of metropolitan areas and urban
systems supported by affiliation
with the University's Institute for Ur-
ban Studies and regional and local
planning agencies. There are par-
ticular strengths in social aspects,
land use and transportation, and his-
torical geography of urban areas.
Individual faculty members have
other interests that enable students
to work on special programs such
as human ecology, environmental
problems, medical geography, Latin
America, Africa, and cartography.
Students planning such programs
should contact the Department or
appropriate faculty member to deter-
mine their feasibility.
Admission and Degree Information
While progress in the graduate pro-
gram is largely an individual matter,
120 / Graduate Programs
students entering the M.A. program
should consider a two-year program
normal; those entering the Ph.D.
should think of three years as the
norm. The Department requires very
few particular courses — students
at both levels initiate their own pro-
grams of coursework and submit a
plan of study for approval.
Incoming M.A. students are ex-
pected to have an undergraduate
degree in the field or in a closely
related field, with substantial work
in geography. In the latter case,
remedial work may be required prior
to admission to the degree program.
All graduate applicants should sub-
mit GRE examination results.
Because of the degree of special-
ization inherent in Ph.D. training, the
Department only considers ap-
plicants whose interests coincide
with departmental staff competence
— in general, the three major areas
of geography described above. Pro-
spective students who are unsure
whether their interests match those
of the Department are encouraged
to submit a proposal for
consideration.
For admission to the doctoral pro-
gram, the Department normally re-
quires a grade-point average higher
than 3.0 and an M.A. degree from a
recognized geography department,
or competence in terms of fields of
study and level of achievement com-
parable to the M.A. degree of the
Department.
A non M.A. — direct Ph.D. pro-
gram is possible by petition from
the student and upon approval of a
faculty committee appointed by the
Department Chairman.
M.A. students have the choice of
either thesis or non-thesis programs.
The non-thesis option involves the
preparation of two substantial
research papers. All M.A. students
take an oral examination defense of
a research proposal prior to work on
the thesis or papers and a final oral
examination based either on the
thesis or one of the two research
papers.
After completion of formal course-
work requirements for the Ph.D.,
there is a two-part qualifying ex-
amination. Part One is a written ex-
amination in the student's two major
fields of specialization. Part Two is
an oral examination evaluating the
dissertation proposal. Upon satisfac-
tory completion of the dissertation
there is a final oral examination.
Facilities and Special Resources
Departmental research facilities in-
clude a reference library with exten-
sive journal collection, a map collec-
tion, and a cartographic laboratory.
A remote computer terminal in the
building provides direct connection
with the University's Computer
Science Center. The Department ex-
pects to move into new quarters in
1978 with expanded computation
and laboratory facilities. Several
faculty members have particular
skills in quantitative methods and
other analytical tools, and the
Department has its own publication
of monographs in an Occasional
Paper series.
Additional Information
More detailed information on the
M.A. and Ph.D. programs can be ob-
tained from the Department which
has available a booklet on the
graduate programs.

Admission and Degree Information
The Department of Hearing and
Speech Sciences offers the M.A. de-
gree with either the thesis or the
non-thesis option, and with major
emphasis either in speech and lan-
guage pathology or in audiology.
The Master's degree is required for
individuals preparing for positions
as speech pathologists or audiolo-
gists in the schools, in the hospitals
or rehabilitation facilities, in hearing
and speech centers, or in other clini-
cal settings. Academic course work
is combined with supervised clinical
practice in the University Speech
and Hearing Clinic and in selected
outside clinical facilities, so that the
graduate will meet the academic re-
quirements for clinical certification
by the American Speech and Hear-
ing Association, and for licensing in
the State of Maryland. The Master's
degree program is accredited by the
American Boards of Examiners in
Speech Pathology and Audiology.
Applicants for the M.A. degree
must have completed the equivalent
of an undergraduate major in hear-
ing and speech sciences. The M.A.
program usually requires three se-
mesters and a summer session to
complete. Only full-time students
are admitted to the program.
The Department also offers the
Ph.D. degree with major emphasis in
speech and language pathology, au-
diology, speech science, or hearing
science. Ordinarily a Master's de-
gree is required for admission to the
doctoral program. Advanced courses
in statistics and research design are
required of all doctoral candidates.
Although no formal minor is re-
quired, students are encouraged to
take appropriate courses in other
departments. The Department does
not require proficiency in a foreign
language. Course programs for the
doctorate are planned by the stu-
dent and a committee of three fac-
ulty members. Qualifying interviews
are scheduled for each candidate
after completion of 12 semester
hours in the program. Written and
oral comprehensive examinations for
admission to candidacy are sched-
uled at the completion of the formal
course program.
In addition to the application ma-
terials required by the Graduate
School, the Department requires ap-
plicants to furnish scores on the ap-
titude portions of the Graduate
Record Examination. Prospective ap-
plicants should note that decisions
on summer and fall admissions are
made in early March, and on spring
admissions in early October.
Facilities and Special Resources
The Department's facilities include a
biocommunications laboratory with
an anechoic chamber, a speech sci-
ence laboratory, electronics work-
shop, two 2-room audiology testing
suites, and nine therapy rooms
equipped for observation. Additional
research and clinical facilities are
available in the Washington and
Baltimore metropolitan areas. The
Library of Congress, the National
Library of Medicine, and the libraries
of the various medical schools in
the Washington-Baltimore area sup-
plement the University's library at
College Park.
Financial Assistance
The Department is able to provide
some financial support in the form
of teaching or clinical assistantships
or traineeships to approximately 40
percent of the graduate students
enrolled.

'Asterisked fields at M.A. level only.
Admission and Degree Information
The Master of Arts degree serves
both as a firm grounding in a field
of history for teaching purposes and
as preparation for the expeditious
pursuit of the doctorate. In addition
to general Graduate School require-
ments, the aptitude parts of the
GRE are required; it should be noted
that an undergraduate major in his-
tory is not as such required for ad-
mission. Of the thirty credit hours
required for the degree, six are in
M.A. thesis research courses (HIST
799), fifteen are normally in the ma-
jor field of history and nine in a mi-
nor (which may be taken within or
outside of the Department).The his-
toriography course (HIST 600 or
HIST 601) is required and may be
used as a part of the major or minor;
two 800-level research-writing sem-
inars are required. Fifteen credit
hours at the level of 600 or above
are required in addition to the thesis
research courses.
A written examination, which is
based in large part on a list of
books pertaining to the thesis and
its field submitted by the student
and approved by the advisory com-
mittee, is required upon completion
of the coursework. There will also
be a final oral examination which
will be confined to the thesis and
the field in which it lies.
Admission to the doctoral pro-
gram will be decided by the
student's M.A. examining committee
on the basis of the student's written
and oral examinations, thesis, and
record of achievements in
coursework.
The M.A. degree in history is nor-
mally required for admission to the
doctoral program, but it does not
guarantee admission. Students with
M.A. degrees awarded at other insti-
tutions will be asked to submit sub-
stantial evidence of their written
work and will normally be expected
to have completed the equivalent of
Graduate Programs / 131
the work required of Maryland M.A.
students. Every student must pass a
written examination on his major
field normally within eighteen
months of entry into the doctoral
program; this examination will test a
broad, intelligent, and informed
handling of the major historical
problems and literature of that field.
A secondary or minor field of study,
supportive of the major, is required
of all doctoral students; it may be
taken within or outside of the De-
partment. The minor requirement
may be fulfilled by taking a certain
combination of courses, or by pass-
ing a general written examination in
the appropriate field of study, or,
with approval of the Department's
Graduate Committee, by having
done an M.A. major field in history
substantially different from the Ph.D.
major field.
An oral examination on the stu-
dent's dissertation prospectus and a
bibliography on the dissertation field
is required. The dissertation is to be
understood as constituting the larg-
est single portion of the doctoral
program: it is expected to be a dis-
tinct contribution to historical
knowledge and/or interpretation.
All doctoral students must show a
reading competence in one foreign
language; the language examination
must be passed before the student
takes the written examination in the
major field.
Facilities and Special Resources
In addition to the field concentra-
tions described above, the Depart-
ment of History offers several forms
of specialized training. In the field of
historical editing the Department
has introduced a successful intern-
ship course in archival work, in con-
junction with the National Archives.
Since 1970 the Department has
sponsored a journal of history, The
Maryland Historian, which features
scholarly articles and reviews and
which provides practical experience
for graduate students in the produc-
tion of a journal. The journal was
founded and is managed and pro-
duced by graduate students in the
Department of History. The Depart-
ment also sponsors three major
editorial projects: the Booker T.
Washington Papers; the Samuel
Gompers Papers; and the Freedmen
in Southern Society Papers. A
number of History Department grad-
uate students have gained valuable
research and editing experience on
these projects, which also receive
support from the National Historical
Publications and Records Commis-
132 / Graduate Programs
sion and the National Endowment
for the Humanities. In conjunction
with the Department of Philosophy,
the Department of History offers a
special program of study in the his-
tory and philosophy of science. This
program, administered by a joint
committee comprising members of
both departmental faculties, offers
undergraduate and graduate
courses, sponsors lectures, issues a
newsletter, and holds colloquia.
Along with several other universities,
the Department of History sponsors
and participates in the Folger In-
stitute of Renaissance and
Eighteenth-Century Studies. The In-
stitute offers seminars for graduate
students and faculty, workshops,
conferences, colloquia, and lectures.
The Institute awards fellowships to
graduate students, and several of
these awards have gone to doctoral
candidates from the University of
Maryland History Department. Still
another project supported by the De-
partment of History is the Pompeii
excavations under the direction of
Professor Wilhelmina Jashemski.
This project, which is funded in part
by the National Endowment for the
Humanities, has furnished subjects
for theses and dissertations for
graduate students in Ancient History
who have worked en it.
Financial Assistance
The Department of History offers fi-
nancial assistance principally in the
form of teaching assistantships to
outstanding graduate students.
These positions, which vary in num-
ber according to the availability of
funds and of which there were 54 in
the academic year 1977-78, are
awarded to advanced students work-
ing toward the Ph.D. or M.A. degree.
Appointment as a teaching assistant
provides students an opportunity to
work closely with faculty members
in the teaching of undergraduate
survey courses in history.
Additional Information
Complete descriptions of programs
and requirements may be obtained
from the History Department.

Concentration in the
History and Philosophy of
Science
The Committee on the History and
Philosophy of Science supervises
graduate study leading to the M.A.
and Ph.D. degrees in History or Phi-
losophy. Courses are offered in a
wide range of subjects in the history
and philosophy of science, medi-
cine, and technology, and research
facilities are available on the College
Park campus and in the Washington
area. For advanced research the em-
phasis is on the history and philos-
ophy of physical and biological
science in the 19th and 20th cen-
turies; history of the philosophy of
science and scientific ideas; genet-
ics, computer science, geophysics
and astronomy; scientific institu-
tions, medicine and public health in
the United States. Integration of his-
torical and philosophical interpreta-
tions of science is stressed in both
teaching and research.
Students should apply for admis-
sion to either the History Depart-
ment or the Philosophy Department,
indicating History and Philosophy of
Science as the field of specializa-
tion. Since people with diverse back-
grounds can be successful in this
field, there are no rigid requirements
for admission; the quality of a stu-
dent's work in science, history, and
philosophy, as demonstrated not
only by grades and test scores but
also by papers and independent
projects, is more important than the
numbers of credit hours in these
subjects. But prospective students
should also be warned that the min-
imum requirement for doing re-
search in the history and philosophy
of science covers substantially more
areas than normally expected of
Ph.D.'s in any one of the traditional
fields of history or philosophy or a
science; it includes training in a
science equivalent to a B.S. (pref-
erably M.S.) degree, proficiency in
both oral and written expression,
and ability to read at least one for-
eign language (preferably both
French and German).
The Committee also encourages
applications from students who do
not intend to obtain a Ph.D. in his-
tory and philosophy of science but
desire only the M.A. as preparation
for careers in science teaching, gov-
ernment service, technical adminis-
tration, museum work, etc., or who
plan to proceed to the Ph.D. in
another field.
A few teaching assistantships are
available in the History and Philos-
ophy departments for students who
have adequate backgrounds in those
subjects.
Detailed information may be ob-
tained by writing to: Chairperson,
Committee on the History and Phi-
losophy of Science, Skinner Build-
ing, University of Maryland.
Course of Directed Study
Leading to the M.A. in
History and the M.L.S.
The Department of History and the
College of Library and Information
Services collaborate in offering
courses that lead to the two
master's degrees. They have under-
taken this collaboration to meet the
need for graduate training for archi-
vists, manuscript curators, rare book
librarians, and those wishing to be-
come subject specialists in aca-
demic, special, and/or research li-
braries. Because of the University's
proximity to a variety of immensely
rich research collections, students
are able through internships to gain
first-hand experiences that reinforce
their classroom instruction.
The aim of the sequence of
courses leading to the *wo degrees
is to prepare students to understand
the intellectual approach of the re-
search scholar through historical
training and to meet those research
needs through the information ser-
vices offered in CLIS. The fifty-four
hours required for the degrees com-
bine twenty-four hours in each com-
ponent, plus six elective hours. The
M.A.-M.L.S. is a non-thesis plan, but
a student may write a thesis if he
chooses.
Students may apply for admission
under the rubric HILS (History-
Library Science) either through the
Department of History or CLIS. Each
has a co-ordinator who serves as an
advisor for students. Since many of
these courses are offered in se-
quence, it is important for students
to work closely with these advisors.
The two degrees are awarded simul-
taneously, and a student who fails
to complete either portion of the
program may not receive either de-
gree. If the student subsequently
wishes to receive only one degree,
he must transfer from HILS either to
the graduate program in History
(HIST) or to the College of Library
and Information Services (LBSC).
A few teaching assistantships are
available in the Department of His-
136 / Graduate Programs
tory and the College of Library and
Information Services has some fel-
lowship aid for students in the
Course of Directed Study. These are
awarded on a competitive basis in
both components.
Detailed information may be ob-
tained by writing to the Co-ordinator,
Advanced Studies in Archives, Man-
uscripts, and Historical Collections,
in either the Department of History
or the College of Library and Infor-
mation Services.

The Department of Horticulture of-
fers graduate study leading to the
Master of Science and Doctor of
Philosophy degrees. The Master of
Science degree is offered with both
thesis and non-thesis options. Can-
didates place major emphasis in the
areas of pomology, olericulture, flori-
culture, or ornamental horticulture.
Within these commodity areas, stu-
dents may direct their studies and
research efforts to mineral nutrition,
postharvest physiology, plant
breeding, chemical growth regula-
tion, water relations, plant propaga-
tion, histochemistry, photoperiodism
and environmental control, and other
factors affecting production, post-
harvest handling, and preservation of
horticultural crops. The candidate's
program may be directed toward a
career in research, teaching, exten-
sion education, or industry. The
research activities required for the
thesis or dissertation are normally
carried out in conjunction with the
research programs of the depart-
mental staff.
Admission and Degree Information
Students entering with a B.S. degree
in Horticulture can normally com-
plete all requirements for the M.S. in
2 years on a half-time basis, 4 years
for the Ph.D. Full-time students
should complete the requirements in
a shorter time. Students seeking ad-
mission should present undergrad-
uate preparation in horticulture,
botany, chemistry, and supporting
agricultural disciplines. Those with-
out this background are advised to
enroll as undergraduate students to
correct these deficiencies. The
Graduate Record Examination is not
required.
Students entering the doctoral
program should have, or plan on
completing, a Master of Science de-
gree in Horticulture, although pre-
sentation of the M.S. in a related
plant science field may be
acceptable.
Upon admission, the student se-
lects a faculty advisor and an ad-
visory committee is appointed. It is
an early function of the committee
to work with the candidate in devel-
oping a program of courses and
research, to meet the goals and
aspirations of the students. The
Department requires no foreign
language proficiency. A comprehen-
sive, oral examination is given each
candidate for the M.S.; candidates
for the Ph.D. take an oral qualifying
examination covering the
dissertation.
Facilities and Special Resources
Modern laboratory and greenhouse
facilities are located at the College
Park campus. Laboratory instrumen-
tation provides for chromatography,

The interdisciplinary programs of the
Institute for Child Study attempt to
collect, interpret, and synthesize the
findings of the human sciences that
are concerned with human growth,
development, and learning, and to
communicate this synthesis to per-
sons who need such understandings
as a basis for their practice and
planning.
Admission and Degree Information
The Institute for Child Study offers
graduate programs leading to Mas-
ter of Education, Master of Arts with
thesis, Doctor of Philosophy, and
Doctor of Education degrees, and
Advanced Graduate Specialist Cer-
tificate (a planned program of 30
graduate hours beyond the Master's
degree). In addition to the general
requirements of the Graduate
School and the College of Educa-
tion, the Program requires scores on
the Miller's Analogies Test competi-
tive with other applicants for admis-
sion to master's and doctoral pro-
grams, and the possession of a
master's degree prior to admission
to the doctoral programs. The
research oriented M.A. and Ph.D.
degree programs in human develop-
ment are designed to develop stu-
dent competencies in the theoretical
areas of biological, psychological,
and sociocultural processes, and
related research methods in human
development. The practice oriented
M.Ed, and Ed.D. programs are
designed to develop student compe-
tencies in identifying the implica-
tions of scientific knowledge for
specific situations through training
in program design, management, de-
livery, and evaluation of human ser-
vices consistent with current scien-
tific knowledge of human
development.
The primary thrust of Institute
programs is focused upon educa-
tional institutions and services and
secondarily with other human ser-
vices which might also draw upon
scientific knowledge of human
growth and development. Graduate
students in Institute programs in-
clude teachers, administrators, coun-
selors, certified therapists and
psychologists, health professionals,
college teachers of child develop-
ment, and others engaged in prac-
tical fields as well as students with
training in the traditional scientific
disciplines. A student's program is
individually developed through con-
138 / Graduate Programs
sultation with advisers and appropri-
ate committees to meet the unique
needs of the student consistent
with the purposes and goals of the
Institute for Child Study. Knowledge
of foreign languages is generally not
required unless a need for foreign
languages is indicated in the stu-
dent's program.
Facilities and Special Resources
The Washington, D.C. area and the
University of Maryland are particu-
larly rich in resources for graduate

The Master of Arts degree in Jour-
nalism provides academic work both
for the person who wants a profes-
sional career in communication and
for the student interested in mass
communication theory and research
methodology. The first type of stu-
dent usually builds on a journalism
background, adding in-depth work in
a substantive minor field, as prepa-
ration for a career in a specialized
area of mass communication. The
second type of student usually
builds on a social science or hu-
manities base coupled with the
study of journalism or mass commu-
nication while preparing for a career
in teaching, scholarship, or applied
research in mass communication.
Admission and Degree Information
The Master's degree is a one-year
program, with the typical student
taking 12 hours of graduate work in
the fall, 12 hours in the spring, and
6 hours of thesis or non-thesis op-
tion seminars in the summer. Work
on the degree may be started at any
time. JOUR 600 is required for the
M.A. in Journalism, as is either
JOUR 610 or JOUR 612.
Applicants seeking admission to
the master's program should hold a
bachelor's degree from a recognized

Travis, White
Lecturers: Batty, Cunningham
The College offers programs leading
to the Master of Library Science
(M.L.S.) degree and the Ph.D. in
Library Science. The College also
provides the option for advanced
students who are not degree can-
didates to participate in regular
courses, workshops and seminars.
The degree programs are avow-
edly academic in the sense that the
main emphasis is put on the con-
ceptual foundations of librarianship.
The objective is to integrate the pro-
ducts of scholarly research in the
field with the concerns surrounding
current and expected conditions of
professional practice. A prime exam-
ple of such concerns emerges from
the introduction and growing use of
high technology in library
operations.
The programs are all regarded as
evolutionary in character. That is,
change and adaptation are consid-
ered the normal state of affairs. The
process is considered to be a recip-
rocal one in that the College's pro-
grams are influenced by the devel-
opments in the conditions of pro-
fessional practice and in that,
through the scholarly and profes-
sional efforts of faculty and the
capabilities engendered in students,
advances in quality and scope of
library services can be attained.
The conventional mode of special-
ization within librarianship is by type
of library. Thus, the programs of the
College provides for specialization in
school, public, academic and special
library operations. The school-media
area specialization ordinarily leads
to certification. Other specializations
have less formal outcomes, and con-
siderable flexibility exists for the
pursuit by students of their own
individual interests.
Student's should be aware also
that new forms of specialization are
coming based upon a growing ap-
preciation of the interrelationships
between librarianship and such
fields as mass communication, busi-
ness and public administration, and
computer technology.
Close ties are being forged with
other departments in the University
to ensure that the widest range of
options is made available to stu-
dents and to facilitate the research
efforts of the faculty.
Admission and Degree Information
Admission as a student to the Col-
lege is limited to individuals who
hold the bachelor's degree from rec-
ognized colleges, universities or pro-
fessional schools in this country or
abroad or to those who can provide
evidence of successful completion
of equivalent courses of study. The
individual's undergraduate academic
record is of primary importance, but
other factors are also taken into ac-
count in reviewing applications. The
potential student's performance in
the verbal and quantitative aptitude
tests of the Graduate Record Exam-
ination, letters or personal recom-
mendation, and information gained
144 / Graduate Programs
from personal interviews with poten-
tial students are considered. Reports
related to the applicant's intellectual
and personal development as an un-
dergraduate are sometimes con-
sidered, as are such factors as em-
ployment experience, military service
and other related activities when
they appear to be relevant in a par-
ticular case as part of the admis-
sions review process. All these fac-
tors are considered significant in
assessing the applicant's capacity
and motivation for graduate work in
the College and for his later perfor-
mance as a member of the library
profession. The Admissions Commit-
tee will consider exceptions to and
waiver of requirements in some
cases.
Programs for Master's candidates
are planned individually, and faculty
advisors recommend courses they
think most appropriate for each stu-
dent. The required pro-seminar and
introductory courses in the organiza-
tion of knowledge and reference pro-
vide a base from which the student
can build a purposeful program fit-
ted to his or her personal needs and
aspirations. Reflecting the multidis-
ciplinary nature of librarianship and
its continuing need for reliance
upon insights from supportive in-
tellectual disciplines, students have
a high degree of flexibility in the
elective portions of their work. Their
courses are not restricted to those
within the programs but can include
relevant courses from other parts of
the Univeristy.
The Master of Library Science de-
gree will be awarded to the student
who successfully completes a pro-
gram of 36 hours with an average of
B or better within three years from
first registration in the program.
Under a full-time program a student
normally completes 12 semester
hours during the fall and spring
semesters and 12 hours during the
summer terms. Part-time students
are also admitted to the program.
Such students are expected to pur-
sue a minimum of two courses dur-
ing each semester. A night/weekend
program has recently been initiated
in response to the requests of po-
tential students for classes to be
held during other than the normal
daytime working hours. Students
wishing admission to the night/
weekend program should apply to
the College following the same pro-
cedures as any other student. Those
persons in the night/weekend pro-
gram will be allowed to carry one
course a semester, but they must
bear in mind that the three-year time
limit on the degree is still in force.
No thesis or comprehensive examin-
ation is required for the M.LS.
degree.
The Ph.D. program requires the
equivalent of three years of full-time
work, normally divided into approxi-
mately two years of formal course-
work (60 semester hours) and one
year of work on the dissertation.
The College has no language re-
quirement unless the individual stu-
dent's specialization or dissertation
requires it.
Facilities and Special Resources
The College of Library and Informa-
tion Services maintains its own li-
brary and information service within
the College. The Library is an infor-
mation center, organized for the ex-
press purpose of affording the Col-
lege's faculty and research staff the
same kind of modern special library
service as that provided by other for-
ward looking agencies committed to
this ideal. The University of
Maryland has an excellent computer
service. In addition, the College has
a Data Processing Laboratory which
serves as a resource facility for in-
struction in the areas of library
automation and information process-
ing, for faculty and student research,
as well as support for the CLIS
Library. The instructional De-
velopment and Support Center is
another service arm of the College.
It was established for the purpose
of providing instructional develop-
ment and support and audiovisual
materials production for the faculty
and the students. Students are pro-
vided with the opportunity to ex-
perience nonprint instructional ma-
terials production and the utilization
of audiovisual equipment.
A recently approved Course of
Directed Study Leading to the M.A.
in History and the M.LS. is now
available to students desiring ad-
vanced studies in the field of ar-
chives, manuscripts, and historical
collections. For details see the entry
in this catalog following History.The
Field Study in Library Service pro-
vides an internship program de-
signed to familiarize students with
library operations through unpaid,
supervised experience and/or to pro-
vide opportunity to perform a study
to solve a specific problem in a
suitable library or other information
agency.
Financial Assistance
A number of fellowships and as-
sistantships are available for
students enrolled in the College.
Loan funds administered by the
University and federally insured
loans are also available. Public
libraries in the region as well as
other local organizations offer a few
stipends and scholarships. In addi-
tion, a student in the College is
eligible to apply for scholarships,
fellowships and grants from national
organizations awarded for graduate
study in librarianship. Information on
the availability of such awards may
be requested from the Director of
Admissions, College of Library and
Information Services.

Marine-Estuarine-
Environmental Science
Program
The Graduate Program in Marine-
Estuarine-Environmental Science
(MEES) is designed to meet the
needs of students who wish to pur-
sue studies on the interactions of
biological systems with physico-
chemical systems. Appropriate areas
of emphasis will involve organisms
living in marine, estuarine, or terres-
trial environments in their interac-
tions with chemical and physical in-
fluences on their environment. Pos-
sible areas of specialty might in-
clude marine and estuarine ecology,
environmental biology, environmen-
tal chemistry, environmental microbi-
ology, environmental toxicology, en-
vironmental management, and ma-
rine technology, among others. The
Program will offer work leading to
the M.S. (with thesis) and Ph.D. de-
grees. The specific requirements for
degrees and the course of study will
be developed during the academic
year 1978-79. Students will be ad-
mitted to the program beginning in
the fall semester, 1979. Additional

communicating with the Office of
the Dean for Graduate Studies.
Mathematical Statistics
Program
Acting Director: Smith
Professors: Mikulski, Syski, Yang
Associate Professor: Smith
Assistant Professors: Kedem, Slud,
Traxler
The Mathematical Statistics Program
offers the degrees of Master of Arts
and Doctor of Philosophy for
graduate study and research in
statistics. The Program is ad-
ministratively affiliated with the
Department of Mathematics. In this
arrangement the Department of
Mathematics assumes the respon-
sibility for the administration of the
statistics courses under the STAT
designation. Moreover, the Depart-
ment maintains the records of all
students in the Mathematical
Statistics Program and handles cor-
respondence with those applying for
admission. However it is important
that any application for admission
indicates clearly whether a student
wishes to enter the Mathematics
(MATH) or the Mathematical Stat-
istics (STAT) Program.
The Mathematical Statistics Pro-
gram offers training in statistics and
probability theory with areas of
faculty specialization including
stochastic processes, potential
theory, ergodic theory, statistical
decision theory, biostatistics,
stochastic modeling, nonparametric
inference, analysis of variance, and
time series analysis. Students in-
terested in a graduate degree in
statistics may pursue a study either
with an emphasis on applied or on
theoretical statistics by selecting an
appropriate sequence of courses
and a research area to form an in-
dividual plan of study. The program
has been designed with sufficient
flexibility to accommodate the
student's background and interest.
Moreover, the Program offers
students from other disciplines an
opportunity to select a variety of
statistics courses to supplement
their own study.
Admission and Degree Information
In addition to the general re-
quirements of the Graduate School,
applicants for admission should
have completed, with at least a B
average (3.0 on a 4.0 scale), an
undergraduate program of study
which includes a strong emphasis
on mathematics or statistics.
Mathematical preparation at least
through the level of advanced
calculus will normally be considered
sufficient demonstration of the ex-
pected mathematical background. In
special cases students may be pro-
visionally admitted without having
fulfilled the general admission re-
quirements, if there is evidence on
the basis of other criteria of poten-
tial success in the Program. The
Graduate Record Examination is not
required for admission, but ap-
plicants for admission who have
taken this examination are required
to supply their score.
The M.A. degree can be earned by
exercising either of two options. To
earn an M.A. degree by the non-
thesis option, a student must have
30 credit hours with an average of at
least B and at least 18 of these
credits must be at the graduate level
(600/700 level). Of the required 30
credits, at least 12 of the graduate
credits must be in statistics. The
student must also pass the
Mathematics Department written ex-
amination in probability, statistics
and any third field of mathematics.
The student has the choice of tak-
ing either the separate M.A. written
examination or the Ph.D. written ex-
amination and being scored at a
lower level. These examinations can
be taken only twice except that any
attempt during the first two years of
graduate work is considered a "free
try".
To earn an M.A. degree by the
thesis option, a student must have:
a) 24 credit hours with at least 15 at
the 600/700 level (of these 15 hours
at least 12 hours must be in
statistics); b) maintained an average
grade of B or better; c) taken 6
hours of STAT 799 (Research) in ad-
dition to (a); d) written a satisfactory
thesis; and e) passed a final oral
examination.
There is no foreign language re-
quirement for M.A. students.
The M.A. degree is not required
for admission to the Ph.D. program.
A student in the doctoral program
must have a minimum of 36 hours
of formal courses (at least 27 at the
600/700 level) with an average of B
or better; at least 18 of the graduate
credits must be taken in statistics.
In addition, there is a University re-
quirement of at least 12 hours of
STAT 899 (Doctoral Research).
The Ph.D. aspirant must take a
written examination in probability,
statistics and any third field of
mathematics. The written examina-
tion can be taken only twice except
that, as in the case of the M.A.
degree, any attempt during the first
two years of graduate work is con-
sidered a "free try." The written ex-
amination is given by the
Mathematics Department twice a
year, in January and August.
If successful in this written ex-
amination, the student must pass an
oral examination. The oral examina-
tion, given by the statistics faculty,
usually takes place a year after the
student passes the written examina-
tion. This examination serves as a
test of the in-depth preparation of
the student in the area of specializa-
tion and of his or her research
potential. Successful completion of
the oral exam indicates that the stu-
dent is ready to begin writing his
doctoral dissertation. In addition to
the above, there is a requirement of
reading competence in two foreign
languages for the Ph.D. The student
may select any two of the three
languages: French, German, or Rus-
sian. The language examination,
given and graded by the Mathe-
matics Department, consists of
translating foreign mathematical
texts into competent English.
To be admitted to candidacy, the
Ph.D. aspirant must pass the written
examination, the oral examination
and at least one of the two
language examinations. The second
language examination must be com-
pleted before the candidate's final
oral examination on the dissertation.

There are three programs that come
under the cognizance of the Mathe-
matics Department: the Mathematics
Program proper (MATH), the Mathe-
matical Statistics Program (STAT)
and the Interdisciplinary Applied
Mathematics Program (MAPL). Stu-
dents applying for admission should
indicate the program of interest to
them by employing the appropriate
symbol. The Statistics Program is
concerned with mathematical statis-
tics and probability. The inter-
disciplinary Applied Mathematics
Program is described in detail else-
where in this catalog but, as its
name implies, is concerned with the
interaction between mathematics
and applied areas; it is directed by
the Graduate Applied Mathematics
Committee but administered by the
Mathematics Department.
M.A. and Ph.D. degrees can be
earned in each of these three pro-
grams. The Master's degree is not
required for entrance to the Ph.D.
Program.
The Department offers graduate
programs in Algebra, Complex Anal-
ysis, Geometry, Mathematical Logic
Number Theory, Numerical Analysis,
Ordinary Differential Equations, Par-
tial Differential Equations, Probabil-
ity, Real and Functional Analysis,
Statistics, and Topology.
Admission and Degree Information
Admission is granted to applicants
who show promise in mathematics
as demonstrated by their collegiate
mathematics' record. Unless courses
in Advanced Calculus and (under-
graduate) Abstract Algebra have
been taken admission may be on a
provisional basis (passing MATH 410
and/or 403 with a grade of B). The
Graduate Record Examination is not
required for admission, but appli-
cants for admission who have taken
this examination are requested to
supply their score.
The M.A. degree can be earned by
exercising either the thesis option
(general University regulations pre-
vail) or the non-thesis option but the
great majority are choosing the lat-
ter. For this option a student must
have 30 credit hours with an average
of at least B of which at least 18 are
at the 600/700 level, including at
least 12 hours in mathematics. He
must have completed two full-year
sequences at the 600/ 700 level and
he must have passed the Depart-
mental written examinations in three
mathematical fields.
The student has the choice of tak-
ing the separate M.A. battery of writ-
ten examinations or taking the Ph.D.
version and being scored at a lower
level. These examinations can be
taken only twice except that any at-
tempt during the first two years of
graduate work is considered a "free
try."
There is no foreign language re-
quirement for the M.A. degree.
It generally takes from two to
three years to earn the M.A. Almost
25-30 are granted each year in
mathematics (MATH, STAT, and
MAPL combined).
The M.A. degree is not required
for admission to the Ph.D. program
but applicants who are accepted
should show, on the basis of their
undergraduate record and recom-
mendations, that they possess not
only marked promise in mathe-
matical activities but the potential to
perform on a creative level. Again,
as in the M.A. case, admission may
be granted on a provisional basis.
The departmental course require-
ments for the Ph.D. are a minimum
of 36 hours of formal course work
(at least 27 at the 600/700 level) with
an average grade of B or better; at
least 18 hours must be taken in the
Department of Mathematics. In addi-
tion, there is a University require-
ment of at least 12 hours of MATH
899 (Doctoral Research).
The Ph.D. aspirant must take a
set of three written examinations in
three mathematical fields; these ex-
aminations can be taken any time
except that an attempt during the
first two years of graduate study
constitutes a "free try." These ex-
aminations are given twice a year, in
January and August.
If successful in these written ex-
aminations, the student must satisfy
the particular requirements of the
field committee governing his spe-
cial area of interest before he can
be admitted to candidacy and en-
gage in thesis research. The disser-
tation must represent an original
contribution to mathematical knowl-
edge and will usually be published
in a mathematical journal.
The average Ph.D. aspirant will
spend five years of graduate study
before obtaining his degree. From 5
to 10 Ph.D.'s are awarded each year
in the Department.
There are two foreign language
requirements for the Ph.D. Before
the aspirant can be admitted to can-
didacy he must pass a writen ex-
amination in either French, German
or Russian, translating mathematical
texts into competent English. The
second language examination must
be completed before the candidate's
final oral examination on the disser-
tation. Both language examinations
are composed and graded within the
Department.
Facilities and Special Resources
The Department is very strong in a
number of areas, and the addition of
the complement of mathematicians
from the Institute for Physical
Science and Technology adds fur-
ther strength. There is a very active
research atmosphere, and the De-
partment fosters a lively program of
seminars and colloquia of which
about half are talks by outside spe-
cialists. Each year is devoted to a
special mathematical field with a
number of outside mathematicians
in residence; the special year for
1977-78 was in Number Theory, and
the one for 1978-79 will oe in Har-
monic Analysis.
The Engineering and Physical
Sciences Library is located on the
ground floor of the Mathematics
Building and contains more than
95,000 volumes in mathematics,
physics, and engineering; more than
280 journals in pure and applied
mathematics are received. The
Library of Congress, with its exten-
sive collection of books and tech-
nical reports, is only a half hour
away from the campus.
The Department cooperates
closely with the Institute for
Physical Science and Technology
and with the Department of Com-
puter Science. Faculty members of
both groups offer courses in the
Department, and the facilities of the
computer center are available to
serve the research needs of both
faculty and graduate students.
Members of the Department par-
ticipate actively in the inter-
disciplinary Applied Mathematics
Program and staff the Mathematical
Statistics Program.
Financial Assistance
The Department is able to offer
graduate assistantships to approx-
imately 110 graduate students. Gen-
erally these graduate assistants con-
150 / Graduate Programs
duct recitation and quiz sections
associated with a large lecture class
taught by a faculty member. The
teaching load is six hours each se-
mester plus the attendant duties of
meeting with students and grading
papers. In addition graduate
assistants are required to assist at
registration time.
The number of fellows is small
and their funding, being largely
dependent on outside sources, is
uncertain. There are, however, a few
dissertation fellowships with a
modest stipend that are occasionally
available to Ph.D. candidates who
are in the final stages of writing
their dissertations.
Additional Information
Special brochures or publications of-
fered by the Department are "Grad-
uate Study in Mathematics at the
University of Maryland"; "Depart-
mental Policies Concerning Grad-
uate Students"; Graduate Study in
Applied Mathematics"; "Graduate
Course Descriptions."
Dr. Daniel M. Dribin is the Ex-
ecutive of the Graduate Committee
of the Department and he can be

programs, admission procedures
and financial aid.

The Mechanical Engineering Depart-
ment offers a broad based program
leading to a Master of Science
degree with courses drawn from
four different areas of specialization:
(1) Energy, (2) Fluid Mechanics, (3)
Solid Mechanics and (4) Systems
Analysis and Design. In certain
cases, a student may wish to con-
centrate his studies early in his
graduate work and M.S. programs in
each of the four areas of specialty
are available. For the Ph.D. program
which stresses research capabilities,
an area of specialization should be
selected early so that the student
can prepare for the comprehensive
examination and can establish the
depth of understanding in a given
technical area necessary to begin
thesis research.
(1) Energy. This area of specializa-
tion treats the transformation,
transportation and utilization of all
types of energy. The area encom-
passes four main topics that include
solar energy, energy conversion,
heat and mass transfer, and thermo-
dynamics. Solar energy studies deal
with the engineering applications of
solar thermal energy to heating,
cooling, and the generation of elec-
tricity with photovoltaic, biological
and wind-power systems. Included
in energy conversion coverage are
thermoelectric, thermoionic,
photovoltaic, fuel cells and
magnetohydrodynamics. Analytical,
empirical, and experimental solu-
tions are developed in solving heat
and mass transfer problems. The
coverage in thermodynamics in-
cludes macroscopic and micro-
scopic considerations of processes,
statistical methods and irreversible
processes.
(2) Fluid Mechanics. This area of
specialization prepares the student
for study in advanced analytical and
experimental methods in fluid
mechanics. Emphasis is placed on
the development of methods and
procedures with the application
following an exposure to fundamen-
tal procedures. Areas of study in-
clude road vehicle aerodynamics,
two phase flow, boundary layers and
jets, vortex dynamics, shock wave
phenomena, and ocean engineering.
Laboratory facilities are available for
research in low speed flow phenom-
ena, two phase flow studies, vortex
motions, and hydromechanics.
(3) Solid Mechanics. This area of
specialization emphasizes exposure
to fundamental concepts in
analytical and experimental methods
of solid mechanics. Areas of study
include theoretical and applied
elasticity, fracture mechanics, ex-
perimental mechanics, noise and
vibration control, acoustics,
numerical modeling, and linear and
nonlinear mechanics. Laboratory
facilities are available for research in
stress analysis, fracture, acoustics,
photoelasticity, and holography.
(4) Systems Analysis and Design.
This area of specialization combines
fields of science and technology for
the purposes of analysis, synthesis,
design and management of complex
systems. In addition to traditional
applications to communication,
transportation and aerospace
systems and production processes,
this area of specialization finds in-
creased application in economics,
biomedical engineering and urban
problems. The graduate program is
organized to include a variety of
courses in control systems, op-
timization design, systems analysis,
and economics of product design
and processing. Research programs
often stress specific as well as
interdisciplinary areas of investi-
gation.Experimental research facil-
ities are available for studies of
polymer processes, control systems
and tribology.
Admission and Degree Information
The programs leading to the M.S.
and Ph.D degrees are open to quali-
fied students holding the B.S.
degree. Admission may be granted
to students with degrees outside of
mechanical engineering. In some
cases it may be necessary to re-
quire undergraduate courses to com-
plete the student's background. The
general regulations of the Graduate
School apply in reviewing
applications.
The candidate for the M.S. degree
has the choice between the thesis
option or the non-thesis option. The
equivalent of at least three years of
full-time study beyond the B.S.
degree is required for the Ph.D.
degree. In addition to the general
rules of the Graduate School, cer-
tain special degree requirements are
set forth by the department in its
departmental publications.
Facilities and Special Resources
The Department maintains
laboratory facilities for graduate
research. Air guns, impact testers,
vibration shaker tables, and acoustic
analysis equipment are available for
studies in dynamic stress analysis
and vibration. Static and dynamic
stress analysis are conducted by
photoelastic and holographic techni-
ques. The fluid dynamics facilities
include wind tunnels, water tables, a
shock tube, a high-vacuum appara-
tus, water turbines, and diagnostic
equipment. Both a closed-loop
magnetoplasma-dynamics facility
and a solar energy laboratory are
available for experimental research
in the energy area. An analog com-
puter, function generators,
recorders, and plotters are utilized
for experimental research in sys-
tems analysis. There is a large com-
plement of mechanical testing
equipment for research in engineer-
ing materials. The Institute for
Physical Science and Technology
maintains a fully-equipped electron
microscopy facility, an X-ray diffrac-
tion facility and equipment for
crystal growing. The engineering
computational facility contains
remote terminals to the University's
UNIVAC 1106 and UNIVAC 1108
digital computers, which are used
in support of research programs.

The Meteorology Program offers a
full course of study leading to the
degrees of Master of Science and
Doctor of Philosophy specializing in
the atmospheric sciences. Addi-
tionally, a full complement of course
work in meteorology is offered at
the upper division and graduate level
as a service to other campus
graduate programs.
The educational program in the at-
mospheric sciences is broadly
based, involving many of the ap-
plications of the mathematical,
physical and applied sciences that
characterize modern meteorology.
Areas of research specialization
presently receiving the most concen-
trated attention are atmospheric
dynamics, atmospheric radiative
transfer, remote sensing of the at-
mosphere, dynamic climatology,
numerical weather prediction, tur-
bulence, diffusion and
micrometeorology.
The Meteorology Program is in
the Division of Mathematical and
Physical Sciences and Engineering
and maintains close research and
teaching associations with the Divi-
sion's Institute for Physical Science
and Technology.
Admission and Degree Information
The advanced degree programs in
meteorology are open to students
holding the bachelor's degree in
meteorology, physics, chemistry,
mathematics, astronomy, engineer-
ing or other programs with suitable
emphasis in the sciences. Com-
prehensive, undergraduate level
courses in meteorology are provided
for students from disciplines other
than meteorology.
To qualify for the Master of
Science degree in meteorology, the
candidate is required to complete
the following graduate level core
course work: METO 610— Dynamic
Meteorology 1 (3 credits); METO
612— Atmospheric Turbulence and
Diffusion (3 credits); METO 620— At-
mospheric Radiation (3 credits).
METO 640— Micrometeorology may
be substituted for METO 612 at the
advisor's discretion.
A minimum of 21 additional hours
of credit, including research, is re-
quired. At least 12 credits must be
in meteorology at the 600 level or
above, and no more than 6 credits
of 400 level meteorology courses
can be applied to the degree. The
program may include up to nine
credits of course work at the 400
level or above in other departments.
The Master's degree program will
consist of a coherent program in
one of four options:Atmospheric
Physics, Atmospheric Dynamics,
Micrometeorology and Air Pollution,
and Applied Climatology. Students
may elect either a thesis option or a
non-thesis option, consisting of two
scholarly review papers and a com-
prehensive examination. A final oral
examination is administered prior to
the award of the degree. Full-time
students with an appropriate back-
ground in meteorology can complete
the M.S. program in one calendar
year. Additional time may be
necessary for students entering
from other disciplines.
To qualify for the Ph.D. degree,
the candidate must select a major
and one or two closely related minor
subject areas. Minor course work
programs are individually tailored to
the needs and interests of the stu-
dent. Each student is expected to
develop a major course work pro-
gram with his advisor which will pro-
vide adequate preparation for the
comprehensive exams and adequate
background for a successful
research program leading to a Ph.D.
dissertation. Because of the divers-
ity of subject matter in meteorology,
due consideration will be given to
the area of specialization of the in-
dividual student, although the com-
prehensive nature of the examina-
tion will not be compromised.
Students who satisfy minimum re-
quirements on the written examina-
tions will be admitted to oral
examinations. A single pass-fail out-
come of the examinations will be
determined from a combination of
written and oral grades with stand-
ards in each category set to assure
an adequate professional level of
performance.
There is no special language re-
quirement for the Ph.D. degree pro-
gram in meteorology. Ability to do
independent research must be
shown by a written dissertation
which embodies an original con-
tribution to knowledge, on some
topic connected with meteorology.
Departmental requirements for the
dissertation are essentially the same
as Graduate School requirements.
Typically, Ph.D. programs in
meteorology require from three to
five years of study beyond the
bachelor's degree depending on the
prior education and training of the
candidate.

Assistant Professor: Howard
Lecturer: Stadtman
The mission of this Department is
to disseminate and discover infor-
mation on microorganisms and their
functions.
The varied research interests of
the faculty permit specialization in
many areas: applied, marine and
pathogenic microbiology, bacterial
cytology and systematics, im-
munology, microbial ecology,
virology, and genetics and
physiology of microorganisms.
Qualified students are accepted in
either the Master of Science or Doc-
tor of Philosophy programs.
Admission and Degree Information
Applicants for the M.S. program
must have acquired a thorough
foundation in biological and physical
sciences. A strong background in
microbiology is desirable but not
essential. However, lack of specific
courses may lengthen the time re-
quired for earning this degree.
Scores on the Graduate Record Ex-
aminations (GRE), both the Aptitude
Test and the Advanced Test in
Biology, must accompany applica-
tions. Normally, candidates for the
Ph.D. program will have acquired an
M.S. degree. GRE scores are
required.
Requirements for the M.S. degree
include a minimum of 24 semester
hours exclusive of research credits.
A written thesis, based upon
research, is required, and all can-
didates must pass a final oral ex-
amination given by an advisory com-
mittee. All candidates for graduate
degrees must serve as laboratory
teaching assistants for at least one
semester. Candidates normally re-
quire about two years to complete
the M.S. program, but quality of per-
formance alone determines awarding
of the degree.
Candidates for the Ph.D. degree,
in addition to the above-listed re-
quirements, must successfully com-
plete a written preliminary examina-
tion. From subjects outside the
Department, candidates must
choose supporting minor course-
work totaling 24 hours. Usually, two
to three years following receipt of
an M.S. degree are needed to fulfill
all requirements for this degree.
Facilities and Special Resources
The Department maintains facilities
which permit research in all of the
listed areas of specialization. The
program in marine microbiology has
access to laboratory equipped
vessels suitable for research in the
Chesapeake Bay and other nearby
waters.
Financial Assistance
A limited number of graduate
teaching assistantships are
available. There are also oppor-
162 / Graduate Programs
tunities for research assistantships,
contingent upon current research
funding.

The Department of Philosophy offers
graduate programs leading to the
M.A. and Ph.D. degrees, with em-
phasis on contemporary British and
American philosophy and the bear-
ing of philosophy on other disci-
plines. A person seeking the Ph.D.
normally enters that program direct-
ly, without first pursuing the M.A.
program (though the M.A. may be
earned on the way to the Ph.D.).
Whereas the Ph.D. program is
suitable primarily for persons who
wish to enter a career of teaching
and research at the college or
university level, the M.A. program is
appropriate for persons who desire
to deepen and expand the knowl-
edge they gained as undergraduates
or to develop competence in
philosophy for the sake of its ap-
plications in some other profes-
sional field.
A special, interdisciplinary cur-
riculum in the history and phil-
osophy of science, in cooperation
with the Department of History and
under the supervision of the Com-
mittee on the History and Phil-
osophy of Science, is also offered,
at the M.A. and Ph.D. levels.
The Center for Philosophy and
Public Policy, operating under the
auspices of the Department of
Government and Politics and the
Department of Philosophy, engages
in research, teaching, and cur-
riculum development in the ethical
and conceptual issues in'public
policy formation. The Center offers
graduate students opportunities for
course work and research.
The Department sponsors a series
of colloquia by visiting and local
speakers throughout the academic
year.
Admission and Degree Information
The Department admits to the Ph.D.
program only students intending to
undertake full-time study toward that
degree.
Students seeking admission to
the Ph.D. program in philosophy
should normally have completed,
with a high grade average, at least
eighteen semester hours (or the
equivalent) of philosophy, including
one course in logic, two courses in
the history of philosophy, and two
courses from among the following
areas: ethics, epistemology, and
metaphysics. The Graduate Record
Examination Aptitude Test (verbal
and quantitative sections) is re-
quired. Applications must be sup-
ported by two or three letters of
recommendation from previous in-
structors, at least one of whom is
familiar with the applicant's work in
philosophy. The applicant is required
also to submit a sampie of his writ-
ten work on a philosophical topic.
The letters and paper, as well as the
G.R.E. test scores, should be sent
directly to the Department of
Philosophy.
Students may be admitted to the
curriculum in the history and
philosophy of science with fewer
than eighteen hours in philosophy
provided that this is compensated
for by a strong background in
science. For details, consult the
Chairperson, Committee on the
History and Philosophy of Science.
Qualitative criteria for M.A. admis-
sion are substantially less stringent
than for Ph.D. admission, but the
same supporting documents must
be provided.
The M.A. program may be pur-
sued through either of two options:
with thesis or without thesis. On
either option candidates demon-
strate competence in symbolic logic
and knowledge of modern philos-
ophy. There are no specific course
requirements beyond the Graduate
School requirements applicable to
all M.A. degrees. Foreign language
skills are required insofar as
demanded by the individual
student's research. To earn the M.A.
without thesis a student must pass
a written comprehensive examina-
tion and must submit a collection of
v :pers demonstrating competence
170 / Graduate Programs
in philosophical research and
writing.
In addition to satisfying Graduate
School requirements applicable to
all Ph.D. programs, students in the
regular philosophy program are re-
quired to demonstrate competence
by examination in two general areas
—ethics and social and political
philosophy; and metaphysics,
epistemology, and philosophy of
science— and subsequently to
demonstrate competence, primarily
by the writing of one or more
papers, in some specialized area of
philosophy. These demonstrations
must be achieved within six
semesters, during which time the
student must register for full-time
study. Other special requirements
are: qualification in symbolic logic:
fulfillment of certain course distribu-
tion requirements; participation in a
departmental teaching seminar; and
presentation of a research paper at
a departmental colloquium. All Ph.D.
students are required also to gain
two semesters' experience in
teaching undergraduates at an in-
stitution of higher learning, either by
way of the Department's teaching
assistantship program or some other
program approved by the Depart-
ment's Director of Graduate Studies.
Foreign language skills are re-
quired insofar as demanded by the
individual student's research.
An accelerated Ph.D. program,
having somewhat different re-
quirements, for exceptionally prom-
ising and well-prepared students per-
mits early concentration on the
dissertation subject.
Philosophy students pursuing the
Ph.D. curriculum in the history and
philosophy of science are subject to
certain special requirements: they
demonstrate competence by ex-
imination, plus written papers, in (a)
the history of science and the con-
temporaneous philosophies of
science, and (b) the philosophy of
science and related metaphysical
and epistemological problems. The
third area for demonstration of com-
petence is either a field of science
(for students not possessing an
undergraduate science degree) or an
area of philosophy. Course work
must include courses in the history
of science and technology, the
philosophy of science, graduate-level
courses in an area of science, a
course on research methods in
history and philosophy of science,
and either Philosophy 471 or 478. In
addition the student must demon-
strate reading competency in a foreign
language, normally French or German.
Financial Assistance
The Department administers a
number of graduate assistantships.
Well-prepared entering students
have a good chance of receiving
some financial support in the first
year. Beyond the first year, support
for a reasonable period of time for
students in good standing in the
Ph.D. program is normal.

'Joint appointment with Secondary
Education
The graduate student majoring in
Physical Education may pursue the
degrees of Master of Arts or Doctor
of Philosophy. The two major objec-
tives of these programs are: (1) to
study the discipline of physical
education by examining the effects
of physical activity on individuals
from a physiological, kinesiologica!,
psychological, social and historical
point of view; and (2) to acquaint the
student with curricular aspects of
physical education, to improve the
quality of teaching, and to offer the
student ways of improving the ad-
ministration and supervision of pro-
grams in schools and colleges.
The graduate program is organ-
ized into three divisions, offering
major emphasis as follows: (1) Divi-
sion of Sport Studies, including
history of sport, psychology of
sport, and sociology of sport; (2)
Division of Biophysical Studies with
specialties in physiology of exercise,
motor learning and biomechanics;
and (3) Division of Curricular
Studies, with emphasis on
curriculum-supervision-administra-
tion, teacher eaucation, and adapted
programs.
Admission and Degree information
The basic minimum guidelines for
admission to the M.A. program in
Physical Education is a B average or
a 3.0 average for the last two years
of undergraduate study, both in the
major and related subject fields.
Students not quite meeting these
qualifications may be admitted pro-
visionally. At least 16 semester
credit hours in Physical Education
must have been completed prior to
admission into the Program. Under-
graduate prerequisites for advanced
study in Physical Education normal-
ly include history of physical educa-
tion, physiology of exercise,
kinesiology, adapted physical educa-
tion, measurement and evaluation,
and motor learning. Students with-
out these necessary courses may
register as special students or be
admitted provisionally with limited
course deficiencies.
Admission to the Ph.D. program
is secured upon the basis of
satisfactory preparation for ad-
vanced graduate work and demon-
strated potential for scholarly
achievement. A B+ graduate point
average (3.5 on a 4.0 point scale) in
previously taken graduate work, with
at least a 3.0 overall average in the
final two years of undergraduate
study, is the scholastic standard for
admission. In those cases where
special qualifications are apparent
from letters of recommendation and
documentations of special back-
grounds, but where the scholastic
standards stated above are not met
in their entirety, a student may be
admitted on a provisional basis.
Students on provisional status will
have their work carefully reviewed
by a graduate review committee
usually within the first year for fur-
ther classification.
The requirements for the M.A. in
Physical Education are a minimum
of 24 semester hours, exclusive of
thesis. Six are required in the PHED
specialty, with six additional PHED
hours required. In addition, the
following courses are required of all
M.A. students majoring in physical
education: PHED 610: Methods and
Techniques of Research (3 semester
hours); PHED 496: Quantitative
Methods (3 semester hours). The re-
maining six hours are to be taken
outside the major department, in
172 / Graduate Programs
related courses intended to supple-
ment and support the major work.
The student is also required to
register for six semester hours of
thesis credits (PHED 799). Thus the
total number of credit hours re-
quired for the degree is 30. Two
years of full-time graduate study are
usually required for completion of
the Master's degree. All students
are required to take a preliminary ex-
amination, the Graduate Diagnostic
Examination, during the first regular
semester or summer session of a
student's enrollment. The doctoral
student is required to take this ex-
amination only when entering the
program without a master's degree
with a major in physical education.
This examination includes six sec-
tions: tests and measurement,
kinesiology, physiology of exercise,
adapted physical education, psy-
chology of learning and history of
physica' education. Competency
must be attained in each of these
areas by course work, independent
study or reexamination.
The requirements for the Ph.D.
degree consist of course work in the
following areas: (I) a minimum of 12
hours in the area of specialization.
(2) a minimum of 6 hours related to
the candidate's area of research in-
terest, and (3) a minimum of 15
hours in a related studies area
selected from outside the Depart-
ment. In some instances more
credits may be required for comple-
tion of this requirement which must
consist of subject matter essential
to support the dissertation topic.
Courses completed may be taken
within a single department or from
several departments.
Students within all divisions of
the Department must demonstrate
competency in research. Commen-
surate with this competency is a
basic understanding of the scientific
method including the ability to apply
logic and objectivity to the under-
standing of phenomena and the
ability to formulate and test relevant
hypotheses. Normally, competency
in the scientific method includes
demonstrating an understanding of
(1) the research processes in
physical education: (2) the quan-
titative methods of analysis
employed in physical education
research: and (3) the principles
underlying the statistical aspects of
experimental and non-experimental
designs employed in physical educa-
tion research.
Twelve hours is the minimum and
eighteen the maximum allotted for
the Ph.D. dissertation.
No foreign language is formally
required for the Ph.D. degree,
although in certain situations it may
be required by the advisor of
students who are doing extensive
reading in German, Spanish. French,
Russian or some other language.
Facilities and Special Resources
The Department maintains a modern
research laboratory for physical
education, including, but not limited
to. cinematographic analysis, car-
diovascular measurement, strength
and other motor fitness assess-
ments, analysis of motion, and
motor learning research. In addition,
the completion of the new Physical
Education. Recreation and Health
building complex in 1978 offers the
graduate student access to research
facilities including a minicomputer
based data acquisition system for
real-time laboratory application
which interfaces with the University
Computer Science Center.
Financial Assistance
Each year a number of graduate
assistantships are offered to men
and women. Specific responsibilities
include teaching in the activity pro-
gram or assisting in the research
laboratory.

Education
The Department of Physics and
Astronomy has active programs in
several areas of current research.
Those in astronomy are listed under
the heading of Astronomy. Those in
the physics program include: astro-
physics, atomic physics, chemical
physics, elementary particle theory,
fluid dynamics, general relativity,
high energy physics, many-body
theory, molecular physics, nuclear
physics, particle accelerator re-
search, plasma physics, quantum
electronics and optics, quantum
field theory, solid state physics,
space physics, and statistical
mechanics.
Admission and Degree Information
The Graduate Record Examination
(GRE Advanced) is recommended,
and the average GRE score for ad-
mission is 750. A minimum overall
score of 500 on the Test of English
as a Foreign Language is required
of applicants from non-English
speaking countries.
Because of the large number of
qualified qpplicants, the Department
of Physics and Astronomy has had
to restrict formal admission to the
Graduate School to those who have
shown particularly outstanding work
in their undergraduate records, or
who have already done satisfactory
work in key senior-level courses at
the University of Maryland. Students
who have less outstanding records
but who. because of exceptional cir-
cumstances, show special promise
may be given provisional admission,
with regular admission pending the
satisfactory completion of existing
deficiencies. Each student so ad-
mitted will be informed by an as-
signed departmental advisor what
background he is lacking, and what
he must accomplish to achieve reg-
ular admission. The University of
Graduate Programs / 175
Maryland hopes in this way to offer
an opportunity for advanced study in
physics and astronomy to all quali-
fied students.
Entering graduate students are
normally expected to have strong
backgrounds in physics, including
courses in the intermediate level in
mechanics, electricity and magne-
tism, thermodynamics, physical op-
tics, and modern physics. A student
with deficiencies in one or more of
these areas may be admitted, but
will be expected to remedy such
deficiencies as soon as possible.
The Department offers both thesis
and non-thesis M.S. programs. The
departmental requirements for the
non-thesis option include at least
four courses of the general physics
sequence, PHYS 601, 602, 604, 606,
622 and 623, plus the graduate lab,
PHYS 621, unless specifically ex-
empted; a research paper as evi-
dence of ability to organize and pre-
sent a scholarly report contemporary
research; the passing at the
master's level of one section of the
Ph.D. qualifying exam; and the pass-
ing of a final oral examination.
The requirements for the Master
of Science degree with thesis in-
clude at least four courses of the
general physics sequence plus, for
students presenting a theoretical
thesis, the graduate laboratory un-
less specially exempted; and the
passing of an oral examination in-
cluding a defense of thesis.
The requirements for the Ph.D. in
Physics are set in general terms to
allow the individual student as much
freedom as possible in preparing a
course of study suited to individual
needs. These requirements are: com-
petence in basic physics indicated
by satisfactory performance on a
Qualifying Examination and in the
Graduate Laboratory; advanced
course study outside the student's
field of specialization consisting of
at least two courses (6 credits) in
physics at 700 or 800 level and two
courses (6 credits) recognized for
graduate credit given outside the
physics program (this may include
astronomy); PHYS 624 or 625 for
students with theoretical theses;
and research competence through
active participation in at least two
hours of seminar, 12 hours of thesis
research and the presentation and
defense of an original dissertation.
In addition to using College Park
campus facilities, graduate students
can, under certain conditions, utilize
resources of nearby federal
laboratories.
Students desiring to do graduate
work in physics at a government
agency should contact a member of
the graduate faculty in the
Department.
Facilities and Special Resources
The current research in the Depart-
ment spans an immense range of
theoretical and experimental work
on the forefront of knowledge, far
too large to describe here. For de-
tails of the work in the various
fields, the faculty and the facilities
involved, the Department annually
puts out a booklet entitled "Re-
search in Physics and Astronomy,"
which may be obtained upon
request.
To give some idea of the magni-
tude of the program we note that of
the professorial faculty of 97, there
are 84 engaged in separately bud-
geted research; faculty members at
other ranks likewise engaged in re-
search number 63. In 1977-78, 86
graduate students and 54 undergrad-
uate students also have participated
in research, under stipends. The cur-
rent federal support for research
amounts to over seven million dol-
lars annually, attesting to both the
size and the quality of the program.
The Department houses the
Center for Theoretical Physics,
which provides a means for out-
standing theoretical physicists to
visit the Department as postdoctoral
fellows and visiting faculty
members.
There are close academic ties
with the Institute of Physical
Science and Technology on the
campus; members of this institute
supervise graduate research and
share in the teaching of physics
courses. The Department also has
close ties with the University's Com-
puter Science Center, which pro-
vides outstanding computer facilities
for the University.
The University of Maryland is lo-
cated within the metropolitan area
of Washington, D.C., where it enjoys
the proximity of a large number of
outstanding institutions such as
NASA's Goddard Space Flight
Center, the Naval Research Labora-
tory, the Naval Surface Weapons
Center, the National Bureau of Stan-
dards, the Johns Hopkins Applied
Physics Laboratory, the Department
of Energy, the National Institutes of
Health, the Library of Congress, and
other Federal Institutions. The De-
partment has close ties with certain
research groups at some of these
institutions. In order to facilitate
graduate study in the Washington
area, the Department of Physics and
Astronomy has part-time professors
in certain government laboratories.
Financial Assistance
The Department offers both teach-
ing and research assistantships. In
1977-78 there were about 80 of
each. Summer research stipends for
advanced graduate students are cus-
tomary, and a few summer teaching
assistantships are available.
The deadline for applications for
financial support and assistantships
is March 1, for fellowships the
deadline is February 1.
Graduate students also can seek
full-time or part-time employment in
the many government and industry
laboratories located within a few
miles of the campus.
Additional Information
Three booklets are available regard-
ing the graduate programs in As-
tronomy and in Physics. "Graduate
Study in Physics and Astronomy: A
Manual" (11 pages) is a guidebook
to procedural requirements and
rules concerning the acquisitions of
higher degrees. "Research Physics
and Astronomy 1977-78" (102 pages)
describes the graduate research ac-
tivities and lists the personnel in-
volved, group by group. It gives the
names of faculty and graduate stu-
dents involved in various research
projects, together with brief descrip-
tions of those projects. "Graduate
Study, Physics and Astronomy:
1977-78" (4 pages) is a flyer which
lists faculty and research projects; it
also provides basic information for
prospective students inquiring about
the College Park programs in astron-
omy and physics.
In addition, twice yearly, a com-
prehensive memorandum is issued
regarding the course offerings and
academic program for the current
calendar year. The memorandum is-
sued in March describes the pro-
gram beginning in late August; the
November memorandum describes
the spring semester programs.
Regarding admission or for further
information write Mrs. Jean Cle-
ment, Secretary, Graduate Entrance
Committee, Department of Physics,
University of Maryland.

grees are offered by the Department
of Poultry Science. The student may
pursue work with major emphasis in
either nutrition, physiology,
physiological genetics, or the
technology of eggs and poultry.
Departmental requirements, sup-
plementary to those of the Graduate
School, have been formulated for
the guidance of candidates for grad-
uate degrees. Copies of these re-
quirements may be obtained from
the Department of Poultry Science.
Courses in these programs are

The Department of Psychology of-
fers training leading to the degrees
of Master of Arts, Master of Sci-
ences, and Doctor of Philosophy. By
Departmental ruling, the number of
graduate students is limited to a
ratio of four resident students per
member of the Graduate faculty, in-
suring close and intimate contact in
research and seminars.
Training for the Master of Arts
and Master of Science degrees dif-
fers in the relative emphasis on con-
tent in the social and biological
sciences. Programs leading to the
Doctor of Philosophy degree are of-
fered in the areas of clinical, coun-
seling, experimental, industrial,
quantitative, and social psychology.
The experimental area is further sub-
divided into three fields of study:
biopsychology; human learning and
psycholinguistics; and sensory and
perceptual processes. Many fields
have a range of subspecialties (e.g.,
personality and developmental, engi-
neering psychology) in which the
student may concentrate. The De-
partment's doctoral programs in
both Clinical and Counseling Psy-
chology have been approved by the
American Psychological Association.
Admission and Degree information
The Department accepts as graduate
students only those who have dem-
onstrated superior aptitude and
appear capable of completing the re-
quirements for the doctoral degree.
All of the specialty areas offer doc-
toral level programs; they do not ac-
cept students who are interested in
terminal M.A. degrees. The average
scores of students admitted for the
1976-77 academic year were GRE
V+Q 1200, GRE Psychology 600,
G.P.A. 3.5; Psychology G.P.A. 3.7.
The Department of Psychology en-
courages applications from minority
groups and women.
Applicants are encouraged to sub-
mit applications by February of each
year for entrance in the fall as the
available spaces are usually filled
early.
For a doctoral degree a minimum
of 72 hours beyond the B.A. is re-
quired. All students entering with a
B.A. are required to take two
courses in statistics and five
courses in areas outside their spe-
cialty program. Of these five
courses, three must be core courses
chosen from a group of available
courses designed to provide basic
information in a variety of specialty
areas. The other two courses may
be advanced seminars of additional
core work.
The remaining credit hours (ap-
proximately 50 hours) are devoted to
research and course work in the par-
ticipant's specialty program. If the
student chooses to have a second
specialty, the two advanced courses
specified above along with one core
course may be taken in one coher-
ent area to provide a second
specialty.
While the course of study in the
Department of Psychology is at the
doctoral level, most students choose
to earn the M.A. or M.S. degree en
route to the Ph.D. The M.A. or M.S.
degree requirements are thirty hours
of work including the two courses in
statistics, two core courses and one
other course which may be an addi-
tional core offering or advanced
seminar. A research thesis is also
required. Advancement to the third
and fourth year of doctoral level
work is based upon satisfactory
completion of core courses, work in
the student's specialty area and
completion of a research
requirement.
Facilities and Special Resources
The Department moved into a new
building during the summer of 1971,
and new facilities were designed by
the faculty of the Department of
Psychology for the training of gradu-
ate students. In addition, its geo-
graphic location in a suburb of
Washington, D.C. makes accessible
a wide variety of laboratory and
training facilities in governmental
and other agencies, as well as many
psychologists prominent in the
profession.
Financial Assistance
The Department gives financial aid
to almost all incoming students. The
Department of Psychology does not
offer a part-time program. Students
are required to attend classes, take
part in research and teach as grad-
uate assistants. Each of these as-
signments is considered a critical
part of the graduate training pro-
gram. It is not possible to obtain
this type of education on a part-time
basis. Thus, students are not per-
mitted to hold off-campus jobs
unless they are under the direct
supervision of the faculty.
Additional Information
Additional information concerning
the graduate program including spe-
cific program brochures and applica-
tion materials may be obtained by
writing professor Irwin L Goldstein,
Director of Graduate Studies, De-
partment of Psychology, University
of Maryland.

AGS program 60 hours beyond the
bachelor's degree, and the doctorate
a planned sequence of approxi-
mately 60 semester hours (or the
equivalent) beyond the master's
degree. There are no foreign lan-
guage requirements unless the
dissertation is on a topic that re-
quires it.
Admission to doctoral programs
requires a master's degree or its
equivalent, an acceptable Miller's
Analogies score, a good scholastic
record, and recommendations for ad-
vanced study. A preliminary exami-
nation, usually written, is given at
the end of 20 semester hours of
doctoral work, to determine the stu-
dent's aptitude for advanced grad-
uate study. A comprehensive exami-
nation, also usually written, is given
at the conclusion of course work.
An oral examination in defense of
the thesis constitutes the final step
in completing the doctorate.

Social Foundations of
Education Program
Associate Professor and Chairman:
Huden
Professor: Male
Associate Professors: Agre. Finkelstein,
Hopkins, Lindsay, Noll
The objectives of the doctoral pro-
gram in Foundations of Education
are to prepare specialists in the
disciplines of history of education,
philosophy of education, educational
sociology and comparative educa-
tion and some generalists with a
broad command of two or more of
these fields. The specialists and
generalists are prepared for under-
graduate and graduate college or
university teaching, for research, and
for policy positions. Foundations
courses are also used to enrich pro-
grams in other areas and to provide
needed disciplinary capacity for
students whose research and career
goals require it.
Admission and Degree Information
Graduate Foundations majors, and
particularly those at the doctoral
level, are expected to have knowl-
edge of the history, sociology, and
philosophy of education as well as
comparative education. Each in turn
specializes in one of these areas
with opportunities for related course
work in either history, philosophy,
government and politics, anthro-
pology, or sociology. Programs are
tailored to a student's objectives
and background.
The master's program offers a
non-thesis option (30 hours) and a
thesis option (24 hours). Graduates
of the master's program find posi-
tions in research or policy units in
public school systems or in educa-
tional organizations, in community
agencies, or in social action pro-
grams with an eduational compo-
nent. Some take positions with
international organizations dealing
with education or teach in schools
located in other countries.
In addition to the overall B aver-
age a Master of Arts applicant must
have a B average in the last two
years of the undergraduate program
from a regionally accredited institu-
tion. An applicant for the Doctor of
Philosophy degree must have strong
undergraduate and graduate records
and a Miller Analogies Test score at
the midpoint or better of the gradu-
ate education population at the
University of Maryland.
The requirements for the M.A.
with and without thesis, and for the
Ph.D. conform to those of the Grad-
uate School. Students in the doc-
toral program take a preliminary
examination (6 hours in length) after
they have completed between 12
and 18 hours of course work.
Facilities and Special Resources
The College Park campus is adja-
cent to embassies which provide
access to materials for the study of
foreign education systems. The Li-

The graduate program in Sociology
offers course work leading to M.A.
and Ph.D. degrees. Particular areas
of emphasis in the Department in-
clude social psychology (socializa-
tion and personality, small groups,
collective behavior and social move-
ments, self-concept); quantitative
methodology (data analysis, research
design, mathematical sociology); ap-
plied sociological research; theory
(history and development of theory,
contemporary and critical theory);
sex roles; sociology of work (formal
organizations, occupations and pro-
fessions); urban sociology; demogra-
phy; sociology of the military. Other
areas of specialization may be devel-
oped by individual students working
with one or more of the faculty.
Admission and Degree information
Admission to the graduate program
is based upon the student's prior
academic record, GRE scores, let-
ters of recommendation, and other
information relevant to the appli-
cant's chances of successfully com-
pleting the program. Although a pre-
vious major in sociology is not re-
quired, students entering the Mas-
ter's degree program should have
had the following undergraduate
courses; mathematics through col-
lege algebra, elementary statistics,
sociological theory, and sociological
research methods. Students entering
the Ph.D. program should have had
at least one graduate level course
each in sociological theory, socio-
logical research methods, and sta-
tistics. Students deficient in any of
these areas may be admitted to the
program provisionally, but must sat-
isfy the requirements their first year
in the program.
A minimum of 30 hours is re-
quired for the Master's degree, in-
cluding one course each in statis-
tics, sociological theory, and socio-
logical research methods. A Mas-
ter's thesis is required. Usually, this
phase of the program can be com-
pleted in two years.
Ph.D. candidates should have met
all the Master's degree require-
ments. In addition, there are four re-
quired courses, two of which may
be taken at the Master's level (one
each in sociological theory and
sociological research methods) and
two taken after beginning Ph.D.
work (theory construction and is-
sues in quantitative methods). Stu-
dents should plan on a minimum of
eighteen hours of course work, in-
cluding at least one general exami-
nation in social organization and/or
social psychology and at least one
area of specialization. The language
requirement may be met by passing
a language exam or making a B or
better in one of a number of other
190 / Graduate Programs
tool courses. Usually these require-
ments plus the dissertation can be
completed in two or three years.

'Joint appointment with Secondary
Education
The Department of Spanish and Por-
tuguese offers graduate programs
leading to the degrees of Master of
Arts and Doctor of Philosophy in
Spanish. The Department's offerings
are designed to provide the required
advanced training in language, litera-
ture, and linguistics for achieving
professional excellence in high
school and college teaching and for
undertaking creative research in re-
lated fields of inquiry.
Candidates for both the Master of
Arts and Doctor of Philosophy de-
grees may elect to do their work in
one of two complementary areas:
Spanish literature or Spanish-
American literature. Spanish lit-
erature embraces four fields: Medie-
val Literature; The Golden Age; En-
lightenment, Romanticism, and Real-
ism; and the Contemporary Period,
Spanish-American literature also em-
braces four fields; Colonial Lit-
erature; National Literatures; Mod-
ernism; and Present-Day Literature.
Admission and Degree Information
In pursuing an M.A. program in
Spanish, the student may choose
between the two areas mentioned
above. Two different programs are
available in either area; the thesis
program and the non-thesis
program.
Minimum requirements in the the-
sis program are 3 semester hours in
teaching techniques (SPAN 605); 3
semester hours in linguistics (SPAN
610 or 611); 18 semester hours in lit-
erature, at least 15 of which must
be distributed as evenly as possible
through the four fields of a single
area, and at least 9 of which must
be in courses numbered 600 or
above; and 6 semester hours of re-
search (SPAN 799), taken while
writing a thesis.
Minimum course requirements in
the non-thesis program are 3 semes-
ter hours in teaching techniques
(SPAN 605); 3 semester hours in lin-
guistics (SPAN 610 or 611); and 24
semester hours in literature, at least
21 of which must be distributed as
evenly as possible among the four
fields of a single area and at least
15 of which must be numbered 600
or above. All M.A. candidates take
comprehensive exams.
As in the M.A. program, the doc-
toral student may work in either the
Spanish or the Spanish-American
area. In addition to his specialized
knowledge of his chosen field, he
will be expected to have a thorough
acquaintance with the whole area of
his choice. This acquaintance will
be demonstrated through a written
Graduate Programs / 193
comprehensive examination plus in-
dividually specified courses.
The Ph.D. is primarily a research
degree. Courses taken for the Ph.D.
are intended as preparation for the
fundamental work of the doctorate,
which is the dissertation. The only
required courses are in the field of
linguistics where two courses must
be taken on the 600-700 level, one of
which must be the History of the
Spanish Language.
Facilities and Special Resources

tificates, and Doctor of Education
and Doctor of Philosophy degrees.
Areas of concentration may include:
integrated special education, educa-
tional diagnosis and prescription,
mental retardation, education of the
gifted, education of the emotionally
disturbed, and learning disabilities.
Graduate work in special educa-
tion includes the development of the
basic skills necessary for improving
instruction of children with learning
problems. Graduate study may be
used by a student to develop and
extend competencies in related
areas such as administration and
supervision and educational
diagnosis. At advanced graduate
study levels programs in teacher
education are also available.
Admission and Degree Information
Graduate programs are planned in-
dividually by the student with his
advisor. Each program reflects the
individual student's background, his
goals and the level of competency
being sought. There is no one pro-
Graduate Programs / 195
gram of study which all graduate
students follow. Individual program-
ming by students and advisor allows
wide latitude of career direction
within the field of special education
upon completion of graduate study.
Graduate study in Special Educa-
tion requires advanced competen-
cies in the education of exceptional
children. Students must have
undergraduate preparation and/or
certification prior to entry to the
graduate program. Students without
graduate or undergraduate prepara-
tion in special education should ex-
pect more extensive graduate pro-
grams so that they might develop
the necessary levels of competence.
Students pursuing the master's
degree program in Special Educa-
tion may earn the Master of Arts
degree or the Master of Education
degree. Specific basic course re-
quirements in Special Education are
the same for either program with
differentiation of thesis re-
quirements. The following core
courses are required for completion
of the master's level program: EDMS
446, EDMS 646. and EDHD 721.
The minimum number of graduate
hours for the master's degree pro-
gram is 30. The student generally
takes a minimum of 9 to 15 hours in
Special Education. Specific pro-
grams and the number of credit
hours required will be determined
with the student's advisor according
to the student's background and
career plans.
The Advanced Graduate Specialist
certificate in Special Education is
available to students wishing to take
increased graduate work beyond the
Masters level. A student pursuing an
A.G.S. certificate in Special Educa-
tion is required to take the following
courses if they have not been part
of his Master's program: EDMS 446.
EDMS 646, and EDHD 721. The
minimum number of graduate hours
for the A.G.S. is 60. The core of the
program should be made up of
Special Education courses and other
work within the College of Educa-
tion or other Colleges of the Univer-
sity as approved by the student's
advisor and the Special Education
Graduate Faculty.
Students pursuing the doctoral
program in Special Education must
have completed the Master of Arts
degree or the Master of Education
degree and may elect to work for
either the Ed.D. or Ph.D. degree.
Students should consult the Depart-
ment Statement on Graduate Pro-
grams. A student in the doctoral
program will generally complete a
196 / Graduate Programs
minimum of 90 hours of graduate
study of which 30-40 hours will be
in his major field. A candidate will
be expected to develop doctoral
level competencies in the declared
areas of his professional goals.
These goals may include instruc-
tional competencies, supervision
and administration of special pro-
grams, educational diagnosis,
teacher education, etc.
Facilities and Special Resources
Special strengths of the Special
Education program include the
focus on integrated field ex-
periences, the utilization of the
Special Education Resource Labora-
tory which houses related materials,
and the wide backgrounds of faculty
members which enables the Depart-
ment to maintain an integrated
approach.

The Department of Textiles and
Consumer Economics otters pro-
grams of study leading to the
Master of Science and Doctor of
Philosophy degrees. Fields of spe-
cialization are TEXTILES and/or
CONSUMER ECONOMICS. In the
field of textiles, students may con-
centrate in textile science, textile
economics and marketing, clothing
and human behavior, or historic tex-
tiles and costume. In the field of
consumer economics, students may
concentrate in consumption eco-
nomics, consumer behavior, or con-
sumer technology.
Admission and Degree Information
There are no rigid course require-
ments for admission to the graduate
program in Textiles and Consumer
Economics. A major in Home Eco-
nomics, Consumer Economics, Tex-
tiles and Clothing, Textiles, or a
relevant discipline such as chem-
istry, economics, or psychology is
acceptable as background for study
in this field. Preparation in the basic
physical and social sciences (chem-
istry, mathematics, economics, psy-
chology, and sociology) is highly
recommended. Necessary course
prerequisites (without graduate
credit) can be completed after ad-
mission to the graduate program. All
applicants are required to submit
scores of the Graduate Record Ex-
amination Aptitude Test.
Thesis and non-thesis options are

may apply for the doctoral program
although they are encouraged to
complete requirements for the M.S.
degree. Applicants holding a mas-
ter's degree in an equivalent field
from an accredited institution may
be admitted for immediate doctoral
study. Previous graduate work will
be evaluated on an individual basis,
but a minimum of 18 hours of
course work beyond the master's
level is required for the Ph.D. degree
in addition to 12 hours of disserta-
tion research. Qualifying examina-
tions are administered upon com-
pletion of basic course requirements

The Institute for Urban Studies of-
fers a program leading to a degree
in the Master of Arts in Urban Stud-
ies. The program is professionally
oriented to educate students in the
technical competencies involved in
urban problems solving and in an
interdisciplinary understanding of
urban affairs. A graduate of the pro-
gram would be prepared for a career
in governmental, nonprofit or busi-
ness activities relating to urban
affairs. Graduates would also be eli-
gible for pursuing doctoral degrees
in the discipline selected for special-
ized study or in interdisciplinary ur-
ban studies and policy analysis
programs.
The Institute provides specializa-
tions in urban management, policy
analysis and evaluation, community
development and urban planning.
Specializations may also be devel-
oped in any other program offering
sufficient graduate or upper division
courses. Some of the departments
providing such opportunities in-
clude: Afro-American Studies, Ar-
chitecture, Business Administration,
Civil Engineering, Computer

The Department of Zoology offers
programs of study leading to the
degrees of Master of Science (thesis
and non-thesis) and Doctor of Phi-
losophy with specialization in the
following fields: cell biology, devel-
opmental biology, estuarine and ma-
rine biology, genetics, parasitology,
physiology, systematics and evolu-
tionary biology, behavior, inver-
tebrate zoology, endocrinology and
ecology.
Admission and Degree Information
Admission to graduate study in the
Department of Zoology is restricted
to students with an adequate under-
graduate preparation in physical as
well as biological sciences, in-
cluding upper division courses in
zoology and courses in mathematics
(through one year of calculus), sta-
tistics, physics, and chemistry
through organic. Able students who
lack preparation in a particular area
may be admitted, provided that the
deficiency is corrected early in the
graduate work. Graduate Record Ex-
aminations are recommended but
are not required.
The thesis master's program ena-
bles a student to engage in advance
study and to undertake a research
project. It may be a terminal degree
or may demonstrate the student's
research ability and lead to continu-
ation of graduate work for the Ph.D.
in the same or related area. There
are no requirements in excess of
the general requirements estab-
lished by the Graduate School. All
requirements for the master's de-
gree are to be completed within a
three year period. A final oral exam-
ination on the thesis is given when-
ever the student has completed all
other requirements for the degree.
The non-thesis master's program
provides opportunity for advanced
education and a terminal degree for
those who are not research-oriented.
All non-thesis master's students are
required to complete no fewer than
30 hours of course work, of which
no fewer than 18 must be at the 600
level or above in Zoology or appro-
priate related fields. No fewer than
16 hours of courses must be in Zo-
ology and three of these courses
should be in a single area of spe-
cialization. In addition, it is expected
that at least one satisfactory schol-
arly paper be written in an area ap-
proved by the student's advisor and
that a written comprehensive exami-
nation in three areas of Zoology be
passed. All requirements must be
completed within a three-year
period.
The Ph.D. program in Zoology is
basically a research program pro-
viding maximal opportunity for the
student to evolve and develop his in-
nate capacity for scholarship and in-
dependent work. A doctoral candi-
date must register for a minimum of
12 semester hours of doctoral re-
search (899). Opportunity is provided
for in-depth study in an area of spe-
cialization. A formal preliminary ex-
amination is given to all doctoral
students within the first two years
of enrollment in the Department.
The examination is basically an oral
examination focusing primarily on
determination of whether or not the
student has the proper motivation,
intellectual capacity and curiosity,
and educational background and has
or can develop the technical skills
to successfully pursue the Ph.D.
program. However, there is no for-
mal restriction on the extent or the
range of the questions asked of the
candidate. The doctoral dissertation
must be completed and defended
usually within three, preferably two
years, after passing of prelims.
Facilities and Special Resources
Since the summer of 1971 the Zool-
ogy Department has been occupying
its new building, which provides ad-
equate space for graduate teaching
and research. The research labora-
tories are well equipped, and major
pieces of experimental apparatus
are available which have imparted a
tremendous research capability to
the Department. These include radia-
tion counting devices, ultra centri-
fuges, high speed refrigerated cen-
trifuges, spectrophotometers, amino
acid analyzers, spectrofluorometers,
mechanical and electrical recording
devices, fraction collectors, ultra
microbalances, and autoclaves. In
addition, the Department has special
suites for electronmicroscopic and
scanning electronmicroscopic work,
constant temperature rooms, four
sound proof rooms — one being an
anechoic chamber designed specifi-
cally for sophisticated research in
ethology — photographic dark
rooms, sterile transfer rooms, and a
histochnology suite.
Although the Department main-
tains no library of its own, the
University has a fine graduate library
housing a Science and Technology
Division which is rated superior. In
addition, facilities such as the Na-
tional Library of Medicine and the
Department of Agriculture Library as
well as the Library of Congress
greatly expand the Library material
within relatively easy access to the
Department.
Additional Information
Students are urged to communicate
directly with the faculty in the area
of their interest but additional
general information and a statement
of particular departmental require-
ments may be obtained by writing to
the Director of Graduate Studies,
Department of Zoology.
