The University

Since 1791, the University of Vermont has worked to move humankind forward. Today, UVM is a Public Ivy and top 100 research university of a perfect size, large enough to offer a breadth of ideas, resources, and opportunities, yet small enough to enable close faculty-student mentorship across all levels of study, from bachelor’s to M.D. programs. Here, students’ educational experience and activities are enriched by our location — from the energy and innovation of Burlington to the forests, farms, and independent spirit of Vermont. UVM provides students with endless ways to explore the world, challenge ideas, and dig in on the most pressing issues of our time.

The College

In the College of Arts and Sciences ( CAS ), students experience the connectedness and accessibility of a small liberal arts college within a high caliber public research institution. Whether students are pursuing the Fine Arts, the Humanities, Natural Science and Mathematics or Social Sciences, they have a place here, in the College of Arts and Sciences’ academic ecosystem. The College of Arts and Sciences highly values the excellence that results when people from different backgrounds and perspectives work, interact, and learn together. In this way, commitment to diversity fosters our educational mission. For our students, it prepares them for life and work ahead: it recognizes that we are a culturally, ethnically, and racially diverse nation, one that is also situated in an increasingly global environment. For our faculty, scholarship and research are increasingly cooperative activities-often crossing national borders-requiring the abilities and skills to work with others often from very different backgrounds. For both our students and faculty, diversity enhances our curriculum, enriches classroom experience, and fosters the exchange of ideas. As our society, economy, politics, and global interactions become increasingly diverse, so too must our intellectual community of students, faculty, and staff.

The School of the Arts The University of Vermont’s School of the Arts is a community of students, faculty, staff, and local partners who value, celebrate, and practice the creative process. Our faculty are artists/scholars: makers, historians, theorists, critics, and presenters. We offer a liberal arts approach to the study of the arts and humanities through small classes to students from varied backgrounds and experiences and include among our resources the world-class Fleming Museum and the internationally respected Lane Performing Arts Series. We welcome first-time artists as well as students well-practiced in their fields. We see creative practice as a foundation for all other learning. As a home for intellectual curiosity and artistic innovation, we encourage collaborations and learning across disciplines.
