Dissanayake 1.1 BRIEF INTRODUCTION The University of Peradeniya (UoP), the successor to the University of Ceylon, established in Colombo on the 01st of July 1942, is the oldest and the largest University in the country. The Faculty of Arts of the University of Ceylon was moved to Peradeniya on 06th October 1952 and marked the formal establishment of the University of Ceylon at Peradeniya. Located on a site of natural beauty about eight kilometers from the city of Kandy in the Central Province, the campus spreads over 775 Hectares of land set in a breathtakingly beautiful location. The University of Peradeniya offers an experience unparalleled among other Universities in Sri Lanka- be it education, residential life, sports, culture or nature. The University has expanded over the past 75 years, both quantitatively and qualitatively as a great seat of learning, and acquired international recognition and a unique reputation within the country. The number of Faculties has increased from four in 1942, to nine at present: They are Agriculture, Allied Health Sciences, Arts, Dental Sciences, Engineering, Management, Medicine, Science and Veterinary Medicine & Animal Science. The number of Academic Departments has increased from 18 at the inception to seventy nine at present covering numerous disciplines. The University has established three postgraduate institutes namely the Postgraduate Institute of Agriculture (PGIA), Postgraduate Institute of Science (PGIS), and Postgraduate Institute of Humanities and Social Sciences (PGIHS). A Postgraduate School of Medicine (PGSM) is underway and will be established soon. The University of Peradeniya was designed as a residential University to provide this facility to the majority of internal students, academic and non-academic staff. Twenty one halls that provide residential facilities to over 70% of the internal undergraduate student population, a Health Centre, 1 places of worship of all religions along with facilities for sports, cultural activities, a large number of societies catering to varying interests of the larger University community make the University of Peradeniya the most attractive centre for higher learning in the nation. The current undergraduate student population is about 13,000. UoP has a total staff strength of approximately 3500, spread across academic, administrative and service divisions. UoP offers 21 undergraduate degree programmes covering disciplines ranging from the Liberal Arts, Law, and Humanities to Physical and Biological Sciences, Engineering and Computer Science, Agriculture, Dentistry, Medicine, Allied Health Sciences and Veterinary Medicine & Animal Science. UoP is the only University in the country having a Faculty of Allied Health Sciences, a Faculty of Dental Sciences, a Faculty of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science, and a Department of Geology. There are around 8500 registered students following various Postgraduate Degree programmes. This includes those enrolled at the Postgraduate Institute of Agriculture (PGIA), Postgraduate Institute of Science (PGIS ) and Postgraduate Institute of Humanities and Social Sciences and (PGIHS). Besides catering to internal students, UoP also offers degree programmes through the external mode. The Centre for Distance and Continuing Education (CDCE) has been given the mandate to design and offer external training opportunities leading to certificate, diploma and degree level qualifications in diverse disciplines using both conventional and online modes. Currently there are about 25000 students following external degree programmes in Arts and about 500 in other continuing education courses. The Central Administration of the University encompasses
