Introduction 2 UNIVERSITY OF CONNECTICUT Introduction The University of Connecticut is a resource for the future, both for the State of Connecticut and for the students who enroll in its programs. The emphasis at this University is on choice: The University of Connecticut can be anything students want it to be – it’s a matter of taking advantage of the wealth of opportunities made available. The many programs described in this Catalog reflect a dynamic University, that is both constant and constantly growing. The University grows by responding to challenges, opportunities, and needs. What remains constant at the University’s core is its steady commitment to high quality teaching, research, and public service. Each year, a new class of competitively selected undergraduate and graduate students brings to the University the promise and potential for their futures. They are the vital natural resource from which greater resources grow; as they progress, the University gains strength. Each year, courses are added, dropped, and improved as the faculty of more than 1,500 teacher-scholars strives to build a stronger curriculum that will challenge these students to think logically and creatively while they gain insight, experience, and skills to realize their academic objectives. Each year, the University develops new approaches to enlarge and enhance growth experiences outside the classroom and laboratories. Each year, this Catalog records the growth in one of the nation’s major public research universities. Today’s University – more than 22,000 students, over 148,000 alumni, about 120 major buildings and 3,100 acres in and around Storrs, three professional schools and five regional campuses in other parts of the State, and a library of more than two million volumes – is a far cry from the institution in its first days. In April 1881, the Connecticut General Assembly established the Storrs Agricultural School after accepting a gift of 170 acres of land, several frame buildings, and money from Charles and Augustus Storrs. The Storrs brothers were natives of Mansfield, the eastern Connecticut town in which the University is located. The School opened on September 28, 1881, with twelve students in the first class. Growth and change came fast in the early years. Before the turn of the century there were two name changes, to Storrs Agricultural College in 1893 and to Connecticut Agricultural College in 1899. In 1933, two years after the institution celebrated its fiftieth anniversary, it became Connecticut State College, a name more in keeping with its steady advances and broadened mission. Six years later, in 1939, the General Assembly designated the institution the University of Connecticut, an acknowledgement of the institution’s developing importance to the State in graduate and professional education, research, and public service. Since the historic legislative act of 1881, the University has grown steadily and dramatically to fulfill its mandated objectives as a provider of high quality education and public service and as a contributor to society through research. The University has reached out with services to all parts of the State, and it has promoted cultural enrichment by making the main campus a center for the arts in Connecticut. Jorgensen Auditorium on the Storrs campus regularly schedules internationally prominent symphony orchestras, musical soloists and chamber groups, dance companies, and touring dramatic productions. This is complemented by Department of Music recitals in von der Mehden Hall and by Department of Dramatic Arts productions. The William Benton Museum of Art has been acclaimed as one of Connecticut’s finest art museums; the diversity and quality of its exhibitions contribute to the vitality of the arts at the University. The University stands with the leading institutions of the nation in the size, scope, and contributions of its research involvement. In the last ten years, University researchers at Storrs and at the Health Center in Farmington have attracted more than one-quarter billion dollars in support of their work. For more than a million Connecticut citizens each year, the University is more than classroom and laboratories, cultural presentations and athletic contests; it is direct contact with University people working through institutes, centers, extension services, and continuing education programs in all 169 cities and towns in Connecticut. The University’s public service mission, which has grown apace with academic offering and research endeavors in both scope and importance, reaches out into local government offices and schools, into pharmacies and medical offices, into corporate laboratories and small business showrooms, onto farm lands and fishing boats. Each year, new programs evolve to meet newly identified needs in Connecticut. The pages of this Catalog contain many of the elements of a university mission that remains constant, of an academic program that is dynamic, and of a commitment to excellence by a university and its faculty, staff and students. The University of Connecticut reserves the right to revise, amend, or change items set forth in the Undergraduate Catalog. Accordingly, readers of the Undergraduate Catalog should inquire as to whether any revisions, amendments, or changes have been made since the date of publication. The University of Connecticut reserves the right to alter or cancel course offerings. Students must satisfy all requirements of their department, school or college, and the University of Connecticut whether or not they are listed in the Undergraduate Catalog. University Accreditation The University of Connecticut is accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges Affirmative Action Policy University of Connecticut policy prohibits discrimination in education, employment, and in the provision of services on the basis of race, religion, sex, age, marital status, national origin, ancestry, sexual orientation, disabled veteran status, physical or mental disability, mental retardation, and other specifically covered mental disabilities.

    Welcome to Stamford, Connecticut County: Fairfield Population: 118,068 Square Miles: 52 Distance to Major Cities: Boston: 159 miles Hartford: 68 miles New York City: 32 miles Stamford Downtown Street Welcome to Stamford, CT, eighth largest city in New England and a burgeoning world financial center. Dubbed by some as a mini-New York, Stamford calls itself “the city that works” and it does, for nearly 120,000 people. Stamford encompasses 52 square miles, of which nearly 25% is water. Its 45 different neighbor- hoods are often shaped by geography: sound-focused, river-based, or nestled along the glacier-carved rock ridges. In each of these neighborhoods you find very different real estate... historic single family homes, gracious colonials, town homes, luxury condos and rental properties. Its people represent hundreds of nations and languages from all around the world. Indeed, about 37% of Stamford residents were born in another country and have come here to make their home. Not surprisingly, their restau- rants offer a broad sampling of international cuisine, from fresh Mexican fare to spicy Thai or Indian food, French haute cuisine, European style cafés, dozens of authentic Italian pizzerias, Irish pubs, and just-caught New England seafood shops. Bargain hunters from all over the tri-state area come to Stamford to shop the hundreds of stores at the Stamford Town Center. Its soaring 8-level open architecture was featured in Woody Allen’s “Scenes From a Mall”. Stamford Town Center features Macy’s, Ap- ple, H & M and many other top notch stores and is conveniently located downtown off Interstate 95.

BRV is a world-class firm best known for its successful program to revitalize Bryant Park in New York City, and will collaborate with BLT, City officials, and community members to expand and refine Harbor Point’s existing slate of public events and recreational offerings in its parks and boardwalks. “When we first got involved in Harbor Point, we adopted the vision of the city and community of a transformative mixed-use waterfront development providing active public spaces, and complementing other neighborhoods of the city. Our development plans have always been designed to invite residents and visitors alike to come and simply enjoy life by the harbor in Stamford,” said Carl R. Kuehner, III, CEO of BLT. “We have made tremendous strides in bringing the vision to life, not only through the successful development of property, but also through thoughtful event programming and encouragement of restaurant and retail growth.

    2 Stamford is the third largest city in Connecticut and is conveniently located only thirty miles away from Manhattan. The city has the largest digital media and financial districts in the Greater New York City metropolitan area outside of New York City itself. Stamford is home to nine Fortune 1000 companies with four of those companies in the Fortune 500 company list 3 Written by Jen Hocken tamford has experienced explosive growth since its last feature in Business in Focus with a continuing six billion Sdollars’ worth of development within the city. Stamford was recently ranked seventh among 209 locations as an “American City of the Future” for its overall economic growth by FDi Intelligence, a division of the Financial Times that studies foreign direct investment. FDi ranks cities based on economic potential, human capital and lifestyle, cost effectiveness, con- nectivity, and business friendliness. In addition to its overall No. 7 ranking, Stamford placed second for its level of connectivity and ninth for economic potential among cities with popula- tions between 100,000 and 350,000. One of the factors leading to this top ranking has been the investment into Stamford Innovation District. Stamford was officially designated an “Innovation Place” by CTNext, the State of Connecticut’s venture capital arm. The city received a $2 million implementation grant that will allow for the creation of an innovation district: a five-square-mile area encompass- ing the Downtown and South End neighborhoods.
