Degrees and Certificates Offered / Contact Numbers 6 2009 - 2010 Catalog A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT It’s my pleasure to introduce you to the unique programs offered by Union Graduate College. We are a student centered organization located just off of the beautiful Union College campus in Schenectady, New York at 80 Nott Terrace. Union Graduate College serves full- and part-time students, providing outstanding master’s-level professional degree and certificate programs in education, engineering (electrical and mechanical), computer science, engineering and management systems, business administration, health administration and bioethics. A Union Graduate College degree is defined by: Individual attention to student goals. Student orientated services are unrivaled in the region. Small classes foster healthy discussions and debates between faculty and students, and support a dynamic case-method approach to learning as well as team projects that strengthen students’ leadership and interpersonal skills. Professionalism. Programs where the mature graduate student is treated with respect as an adult responsible for their own education. Experience. Capstone and other real world based projects, completed in collaboration with faculty or dynamic corporations and organizations, prepare students to take on complex problems and questions, assume responsibility, and become the professionals on which successful organizations rely. High Motivation. We challenge students to work hard, think innovatively innovative, and demonstrate strong self-discipline. Through collaboration and teamwork, students encourage one another and develop the ability to work effectively with others. Return on Investment. Close relationships with leading employers in manufacturing, healthcare, financial services, education, and other fields provides students extensive opportunities to work on real projects and problems with faculty, and to land internships that provide valuable hands-on experience in their fields of interest. Union Graduate College alumni hit the ground running. Job placement degree completion and rates are superb. The Best Opportunities. The career and placement office serves only graduate students and the employers who hire them. These professionals have developed strong relationships with local companies and organizations. They understand the skills and qualifications graduate students need to secure top jobs and internships. 2 Responsiveness. Most faculty have hands-on experience in the areas they teach, and are highly sensitive to important trends and changing employer needs. They are quick to respond with courses and programs that meet the interests of students and the demand of the marketplace. Of course, no catalog can capture the heart and soul of a college: the dedication of our faculty, the camaraderie and collegial relationships of our students, the care and concern of our administrators and staff, and our close working relationships with the professional community are hard to express fully in print. We invite you to start your exploration of Union Graduate College with our catalog. However, we hope that you will call us or visit the campus to meet my wonderful colleagues and enjoy our environment.

  • Underrated A+ Colleges and Universities
    Underrated A+ Colleges and Universities These are colleges and universities that are not quite “tip of the tongue” schools but are generally regarded as among the best educations in the United States, and are certainly well known to national companies and graduate schools. Some of these schools may not be as “front end” selective as an Ivy or Ivy-Like institution, but don’t confuse selectivity with the educational delivery product. Some schools are moderately selective for a variety of reasons (geography, age, size) but still retain A+ level faculty resources, classroom instruction, and top end exit oriented processes (getting a Job or getting into graduate school). Remember, college is often what YOU make of it and not necessarily what others think your experience should be.
