DEPARTMENT OF GRADUATE STUDIES.

   
Edwin Anderson Alderman, Ph.B., D.C.L., LL.D.  President 
Richard Heath Dabney, M.A., Ph.D.  Dean 

ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS.

Admission to the Department.—For admission to the Department of
Graduate Studies a baccalaureate degree from a recognized institution of
collegiate rank is required, for men and women alike. In order to become
a candidate for a degree, the student must be advanced to candidacy by the
Committee on Rules and Courses upon formal application, as set forth below.

Advancement to Candidacy for a Degree.—Any graduate student who
wishes to become a candidate for a degree must file with the Dean of the
Department his application on a blank form to be secured from the Registrar.
This application must include a proposed program of work arranged
in accordance with the requirements for the several degrees as stated below,
and must be accompanied, in case the applicant does not hold an academic
degree from this University, by an official transcript of the applicant's academic
record made out by the Registrar of the institution from which the
baccalaureate degree was received, and by a catalogue of that institution,
marked to show the courses of study pursued. The application will be submitted
by the Dean to the Committee on Rules and Courses, who will consider
it in conference with the professors concerned. The Committee will
have the right to require that the applicant add to his program any courses,
undergraduate or graduate, considered necessary to supply his deficiencies,
or to enable him to pursue with profit the courses he has selected. When
the program has been finally approved, the Dean will report to the applicant
his advancement to candidacy for a degree.

It should be distinctly understood that graduate degrees are not conferred
merely upon the basis of the number of courses passed, or of the
length of time spent in resident or non-resident work, but upon the basis
of the quality and scope of the candidate's knowledge, and his power of investigation
in his chosen field of study. Candidates whose training and attainments
are inferior cannot expect to secure a degree in the normal length
of time estimated below for the respective degrees.

REQUIREMENTS FOR DEGREES.

Master of Arts.—The degree of Master of Arts will be conferred upon
the holder of a degree of Bachelor of Arts who has fulfilled the following
requirements:

(1) The successful completion, in not less than one full year of resident
graduate work, of the program of studies approved for the candidate by the
Committee on Rules and Courses, as embodied in his formal application for


162

Page 162
advancement to candidacy. This application must be submitted not later
than one week after registration, in the year in which it is expected that the
degree will be conferred. The program must form a consistent plan of
work, to be pursued with some definite aim, and grouped around some one
subject to be known as the candidate's Major Subject, the name of which
will be incorporated in the body of each diploma conferring the degree.
The program should be arranged in consultation with the professors concerned,
and must be approved in writing by a professor of the candidate's
Major Subject, who shall be designated by the Dean of the Department of
Graduate Studies, after consultation with the candidate.

(2) The preparation and submission of a thesis, to be accepted as satisfactory
by the Professor of the candidate's Major Subject. Two copies
of the thesis, typewritten on paper of prescribed quality and size, and substantially
bound, must be deposited in the office of the Dean of the Department
of Graduate Studies not later than May 15 of the year in which it is
expected that the degree will be conferred. The back of the cover must bear
the title of the thesis and the writer's name, and the title page must bear
the words: A thesis presented to the Academic Faculty of the University
of Virginia in candidacy for the degree of Master of Arts.

Master of Science.—The degree of Master of Science will be conferred
upon the holder of a degree of Bachelor of Science who fulfills requirements
corresponding to those stated above for the degree of Master of Arts.

Doctor of Philosophy.—The degree of Doctor of Philosophy will be conferred
upon the holder of a baccalaureate degree who has fulfilled the following
requirements:

(1) The successful completion, in not less than three full years of graduate
work, of the program of studies approved for the candidate by the
Committee on Rules and Courses, as embodied in the student's formal application
for advancement to candidacy. This application must be submitted
not later than October 1 of the session preceding the final year of candidacy
for the degree. The program of studies must include a Major Subject, pursued
for at least three years, and may include one, or two, Minor Subjects,
pursued for at least one year. The Minor Subject, or Subjects, if any, must
be closely related to the Major Subject, and the program as a whole must
contribute to the mastery of some definite field of knowledge as an object
of study and research. The name of the Major Subject will be incorporated
in the body of the diploma conferring the degree. At least one full year of
graduate study, which must be the last year of the student's candidacy,
must be spent in residence; but by special permission of the Committee on
Rules and Courses the student may be allowed to complete his dissertation
in absentia.

Upon advancement to candidacy the Dean will appoint a special committee
of not less than three Professors, under the Chairmanship of the
Professor of the candidate's Major Subject, and including a representative
of the Committee on Rules and Courses. This committee will conduct the
candidate's final examinations, and pass upon his dissertation.


163

Page 163

(2) A reading knowledge of French and German sufficient to enable
the student to use these languages for purposes of research. This knowledge
shall be attested by passing examinations in French and German, set
by the professors of these languages, in consultation with the Professor of
the Major Subject, not later than Oct. 1 of the session preceding the final
year of candidacy for the degree. Upon recommendation of the professor
of the Major Subject, and at the discretion of the Committee on Rules and
Courses, some other language may be substituted for either French or German.

(3) A final examination, written, oral, or both, in addition to all examinations
in course, upon such phases of the Major Subject and of allied
subjects, as the special committee shall prescribe. No candidate can be admitted
to the final examination until his dissertation has been accepted.
Preliminary examinations may in addition be required by individual schools,
as stated under the announcements of these Schools.

(4) A Dissertation exhibiting independent research in some branch of
the candidate's Major Subject, submitted to the Special Committee not later
than April 15 of the last year of candidacy. The copy submitted shall be
typewritten upon paper of prescribed quality and size, and shall be substantially
bound. The cover shall bear the title of the dissertation and the
name of the writer, and the title page shall bear the words: A Dissertation
presented to the Academic Faculty of the University of Virginia in candidacy
for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Upon approval of the dissertation
the candidate must arrange for the publication, at the earliest practicable
date, of the whole or such portions of the dissertation as the special
committee shall direct. If publication prior to the conferring of the degree
be impracticable, the candidate must deposit with the Bursar a sum of
money sufficient to cover the cost of 50 copies, which shall be the property
of the University Library.l Two copies, in addition, must be placed in the
office of the Dean of the Graduate Department.

Grade.—A Graduate Student's standing in a course is indicated not by
a numerical grade, but by one of the following terms: Distinguished, Satisfactory,
Unsatisfactory.

EXPENSES.

The necessary expenses of a Virginia student in the Department of
Graduate Studies may be estimated at from $320 a year upward, according
to the mode of living; for students from other States, $510 upward.
A fuller statement of expenses, including the conditions under which Virginians
and other students are entitled to free tuition, will be found on
pages 100-105 of the General Catalogue.

Applicants for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy who are granted the
privilege of non-residence during a period of their candidacy, under the
conditions above stated, are required to register each year during such period
of non-residence, and to pay the annual university fee ($10 for Virginians,
$40 for students from other States).
