Script error: No such module "Coordinates". Template:Infobox University The University of Central Florida College of Graduate Studies is an academic college of the University of Central Florida located in Orlando, Florida, United States. The college confers most professional and research master's degrees and doctoral degrees in various fields of study for the university. The departments under which instruction and research occur are housed in UCF's other schools and colleges. The administrative offices for the College of Graduate Studies are located in Trevor Colbourn Hall, Suite 205A, on UCF's main campus. The interim dean of the college is John Weishampel PhD.[1]
Originally called the Division of Graduate Studies, in August 2008 the UCF Board of Trustees changed the name to "College of Graduate Studies" to better reflect the school's responsibilities for graduate education.[2] Since 2008, the dean of the College of Graduate Studies has concurrently held the title of vice provost. This dual-title is in recognition of the role played by the dean in reviewing academic departments and graduate programs throughout the university.
For decades, the Division of Graduate Studies was housed in Millican Hall, which now includes the Graduate Student Center – a social, study, presentation, and collaborative work study area for graduate students. Graduate faculty consists of members within the university faculty – organized in their colleges into "disciplines" representing their distinct subject areas – who have been so designated by their respective departments or schools and approved by the dean of the College of Graduate Studies. Students apply for admission to a specific field, although once admitted, students are not limited to that field when selecting courses or faculty to serve on the committee supervising the student's research. The College of Medicine confers M.D.'s, but not Ph.D. degrees. The college offers more than 200 graduate program options.[3] UCF ranks third among Florida's state universities in total graduate enrollment.[4][5]
