Graduate Study at the University of Maine
The University of Maine offers graduate programs leading to the degrees of Master of Arts, Master of Science and Master of Education. Graduate instruc tion is carried on during the academic year. and. in some fields, during the Summer Sessions.
Among the newer developments in graduate work are programs in Agricultural Engineering and Geology, a curriculum in the field of Education for teachers of Vocational Agriculture, and a graduate curriculum in Public Management. A cooperative arrangement with the Roscoe B. Jackson Memorial Laboratory at Bar Harbor provides opportunities for research work at the Laboratory to students in Bacteriology, Psychology and Biology. In connection with the new Five-Year Curriculum in Pulp and Paper Technology, qualified students may carry some work for graduate credit during the final two years of the five-year program.
A new program leading to the degree of Master of Education has recently been instituted. Planned especially for teachers and school administrators, this program may be pursued during the Summer Sessions, and during the academic year as well. Credits are allowed for a certain amount of work done in University Extension classes, on or off-campus. The graduate paper and oral examination have given way to more course work and an emphasis on graduate seminars.
Some graduate work is carried on in nearly every department of the University. In recent years some depart ments have been particularly active in the area of graduate instruction. Graduate students have been most numerous in the fields of Chemical Engineering. Chemistry, Education, English, History and Government, Psychology, Wildlife Conservation, and Zoology.
Eight Trustee Graduate Tuition Scholarships are awarded annually, with alumni of the University given first preference. Many departments make use of graduate assistants who devote a part of their time to study. Through the Department of Industrial Cooperation, fellowships are available to students able to carry on research of a technical nature which is of interest to industry.
Alumni interested in returning to their Alma Mater for advanced study arc cordially invited to make inquiries of Dean Edward N. Brush.
