Yale University is a private, co-educational, non-sectarian university in New Hav

Connecticut, with a talented and diverse student population, renowned faculty,

beautiful campus, and world-class resources.

Welcome to

Y A L E U N I V E R S I T Y

Yale has all the advantages and resources of a large researchuniversity, but it is small enough to be a friendly place. The GraduateSchool community comes together frequently for lectures, receptions,concerts even tailgate parties at the Yale Bowl.

Yale was established in 1701

as the Collegiate School and

renamed a few years later in

honor of British merchant

Elihu Yale, whose generous

donation made possible the

completion of the rst build-

ing on campus. For more than 300 years, Yale has been a

leader in higher education, evolving from a regional institu-

tion in the 18th and 19th centuries into a national university

during the 20th century. During the 21st century, Yale is

becoming a truly global university. www.yale.edu/gateways/stud

As Yale enters its fourth century, our goal is to educate lead-

ers and advance the frontiers of knowledge not simply for the

United States, but for the entire world, according to Univer-

sity President Richard C. Levin.

The Graduate School offers programs leading to the

m.a. , m.s ., m.phil . , and ph.d. In addition to the

Graduate School and the College, the Univer-

sity has 12 professional schools: Architecture,

Art, Divinity, Drama, Engineering & Applied

Science, Forestry and Environmental Studies, Law,

Management, Medicine, Music, Nursing, and Public Health.

The Graduate School at Yale is a community of scholars

and scientists. Faculty members mentor their students.

Cross-disciplinary collaborations thrive. Academic programs

are augmented by professional preparation that includes

training in teaching and career counseling.

Academics are organized into three divi-

sions: humanities, social sciences,

and natural sciences. In all areas,

Yales resources are extraordinary.

Recent investments of over $1.5

billion in research facilities have dramat-

ically enhanced Yales offerings in the sciences. The

Anlyan Center is the cornerstone of a major investment the

University is making in biomedical research and education.

Yale has committed over $500 million to the natural sciences,

The Hall of Graduate Studies was built in1930 31 in the scholastic Gothic style, wit

leaded glass windows, stone arches, whimsical carvings, and gracious courtyards.

It houses the Graduate Schools administrative ofces, a dormitory, the McDou

Graduate Student Center, and several departmental ofces and classrooms.

Science facilities are located on central campus, at thenearby Medical School, and on West Campus.R IG H T TheAnlyan Center is the School of Medicines state-of-the-artresearch and educational facility, with an anatomy labthat uses interactive computer simulations as well asmore traditional approaches.

and the fruits of that investment include a new En-

vironmental Science Center and new chemistry and

engineering research buildings.

Yale has many research facilities, including new build-

ings dedicated to Molecular Medicine, Engineering,

Environmental Science, and Chemistry. Recently, the

University acquired West Campus, equipped with

outstanding laboratories. Farther aeld, Yale

owns 11,000 acres of forest used for research,

located in Connecticut, Vermont, and New

Hampshire.

The Universitys collections

include three museums and the third

largest library in the United States.

The library currently has over 12 million

volumes and participates in the Research

Libraries Group, providing access to the

resources of Columbia University, the University of

Pennsylvania, and the New York Public Library.

With over four million volumes, Sterling

Memorial Library is the largest on campus and serves

as the center of the library system. The book stacks,

studies, and reading rooms are open to all students.

Yales special collections offer unparalleled riches.

They include written matter of every kind, from

books, manuscripts, and ancient clay tablets to

unique prints, posters, and even greeting cards.

They also go well beyond the written word to

encompass maps, photographs, sound and video

recordings, coins, and other items of great cul-

tural and historical importance. Other special

collections are housed in libraries at the Law,

Drama, and Divinity schools.

The Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library houses a vast collection of hand-w

and printed materials, including ancient papyri, medieval illuminated manuscripts, ph

graphs, and the correspondence of hundreds of major literary and

historical gures. The Graduate School has established fellowsh

for students who wish to use these materials in their research.

Within Sterling is the Irving S.

Gilmore Music Library, one

of the most extensive col-

lections of music scores,sound recordings, and

music research materials in the United States, including

complete runs of nearly every available monumental

set and composers collected edition and the complete

papers and archives of Charles Ives, Virgil Thomson, Kurt

Weill and Lotte Lenya, Vladimir Horowitz, Benny Goodman,

and many others.

Yale has two art museums. Yale University Art

Gallery, the oldest college art museum in the west-

ern hemisphere, conserves more than 100 thousand

objects from around the world, dating from ancient Egyptian times to the present. The Yale Center for

British Art houses the most comprehensive collection of British

paintings, prints, drawings, rare books, and sculpture outside

Great Britain. Yales Peabody

Museum of Natural His-

tory holds the second-

largest repository of

dinosaur artifacts in

the u.s. , and the larg-

est intact Apatosaurus

in the world.

DOCTORAL AND MASTERS DEGREES

Students may enter the Graduate School after earning a

bachelors degree or a masters degree. The majority of academic

departments offer programs of study leading to the ph.d. de-

gree. Many offer the Master of Arts or Science and the Master

of Philosophy degrees, which may be earned in the course of

doctoral studies. In some programs,

the m.phil . is awarded to students

who complete all requirements for the

ph.d. except the dissertation. Some

departments and programs admit students who seek the m.a.

or m.s. as a nal or terminal degree.

FULL-TIME AND PART-TIME STUDY

Doctoral students enroll full time. Students pursuing termi-

nal masters degrees may, with the approval of the Graduate

School, attend part time. Because of visa regulations, interna-

tional students are normally admitted for full-time study only.

COMBINED PROGRAMS

Students may apply for admission to only one department

or program within the Graduate School, unless application

is being made to African American Studies, Film Studies, or

Renaissance Studies which must be combined with another

program. Some additional academic departments and pro-

grams permit combined programs of study (see page 22.) .

INTERDISCIPLINARY STUDY

Most academic programs encourage students to take courses

in related departments, and students are often advised by

faculty members from more than one department during

their dissertation research. Students may, with permission,

take advantage of courses and research opportunities in Yale

College and /or in the professional schools. Students may also

propose individual interdisciplinary programs, which must be

approved by the directors of graduate studies in both depart-

ments and the appropriate associate dean(s).


19/51

Graduate education requires that students hone their abilities to think creatively and independently. Am

my greatest rewards as a Yale professor is to guide graduate students as they develop and acquire the

essential skills. I nd it wonderfully satisfying to contribute to their education in the classroom and in

laboratory, and to witness their growth into young professionals.PAUL TURNER, Associate Professor of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology

JOINT-DEGREE PROGRAMS

The programs listed below allow for study in the Graduate

School and one of the professional schools at Yale. Students

may submit proposals for other joint-degree programs.

Applicants to the m.d ./ ph.d. program apply for admission on

a single application form to be obtained from the registrar of

the School of Medicine.

Applicants to the remaining programs may apply to both

schools at the same time or apply to the second during their

rst year of study. A separate application is required for each

school, and each makes its own admission decision. Students

who apply simultaneously to two schools should indicate that

they are doing so on both applications.

SUMMER STUDY

Since ph.d. students are funded

twelve months of the year, they

are able to pursue independent

study and research during the

summer. All graduate dormitories

and apartments and some dining

facilities remain open year round.

The Graduate School does not offer courses in the summer,

but undergraduate courses and foreign and English language

instruction are available. Libraries and laboratories are open,

and there are opportunities for summer employment,

internships, and fellowships. For information, contact

EARNING THE DEGREE

2welcome to yale un iversi ty

Length of study.Students are expected to complete the require-

ments for the m.a. and m.s. degree in one or two years, depend-

ing on the program. Students who enroll at Yale without a

masters degree are expected to earn the ph.d. degree in six

years. One or two years are spent taking courses; the next is

spent completing language requirements, preparing for quali-

fying exams, and submitting a dissertation prospectus (see

below ) . The remaining years are spent conducting research

and writing the dissertation.

Residency requirement.Doctoral students are required to be in

residence in New Haven for at least three years.

Comprehensive examinations.Doctoral candidates are required to

pass comprehensive qualifying examinations administered by

their department, generally after completion of course work

and before beginning dissertation research.

Dissertation prospectus.Before the end of the third year, doctoral

students submit a proposal summarizing the nature and scopeof their dissertation, for approval by the department.

Training in teaching.Learning to teach is a fundamental part of

graduate education. Students develop teaching skills, under

faculty guidance, by serving as teaching fellows for under-

graduate sections, labs, and classes. Additional training is

provided by the McDougal Graduate Teaching Center (gtc ).

Teaching requirements vary

by department or program,

but are normally for two to

four semesters during years

two through four.

Dissertation. The doctoral

dissertation is the culmi-

nation of the graduate

experience. Every disser-

tation makes an original

contribution to a eld of study by discovering signicant new

information, achieving a new synthesis of ideas, developingnew methods or hypotheses, or applying established methods

to new materials. Students work with one or more advisors.

As I advanced in my dissertation, I experienced the thrill of knowing I was exploring research questi

that no one else had addressed before. It is very exciting to think that one is making an original contri

tion to our knowledge base.... My advisors taught me that the study of politics can be engaging, imag

tive, cross-disciplinary, and relevant.JAIME LLUCH(PH.D. 2007, Political Science) earned his J.D.degree at Yale and worked as a lawyer for nine years before enrolling in the Graduate School.

TUITION & LIVING COSTS

In academic year 20122013, tuition for full-time study is

$35,500. This rate is expected to increase in subsequent years.

ph.d. candidates are charged four years of full tuition (or less

if degree requirements are completed more rapidly), but the

Graduate School covers this cost. Thereafter students are

charged a modest continuing registration fee each term until

the dissertation is submitted or the terminal date is passed. In

20122013 a single student will need approximately $26,720

in addition to tuition, to meet living costs for a full year. The

minimum stipend for that year is $27,300.

FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE

The nature of nancial assistance varies among the divisions

and departments. All admitted applicants to ph.d. programs

receive nancial aid that typically includes full tuition and

a stipend, for a minimum of four or ve years. In many

instances, a portion of this nancial aid comes from outside

fellowships. Stipends awarded to ph.d. students normally

meet, and in most cases signicantly exceed, the estimated

living costs for a single student. Applicants to masters programs

may apply for nancial aid unless they have personal resources,

gifts, loans, and outside fellowships sufcient to pay for

tuition and maintenance for the duration of their

educational program (normally one to two years).

Yale University Fellowships.The Graduate School

awards Yale University Fellowships ranging from

partial tuition to full tuition plus full stipend inmost departments. University Fellowships are

awarded at admission to entering students and

are based primarily on merit.

Teaching Fellowships. Teaching fellowships are

normally combined with University and other

fellowships to establish a four- to ve-year pattern of support.

In cooperation with the academic departments, the Graduate

School attempts to provide teaching opportunities sufcient

to enhance graduate education but not so burdensome as to

prevent completion of the ph.d. within ve or six years.

Research Assistantships and Traineeship Trainee-

ships (u.s. citizenship required ) and research

assistantships are available to students in science

and biomedical departments. These appoint-

ments are usually combined with University

Fellowships and teaching fellowships to provide

six years of support. Research assistantships are

available in other academic divisions but are not

typically the primary source of support.

University Dissertation Fellowships. The Graduate

School offers University Dissertation Fellowships to all eligible

students in the humanities and social sciences who are at an

advanced stage of dissertation preparation, normally in the

fth or sixth year of study. www.yale.edu/graduateschool/nanc
