Graduate Studies and CEEB

The center itself does not grant degrees, rather graduate students associated with the center are in the department of their major advisor. Consequently students wishing to join the center must be first accepted for graduate studies within an academic department. Incoming students should apply directly to the department of the person with whom they wish to study.

Students within the center can receive financial support from a number of sources, in addition to departmental teaching assistantships, research assistantships and University fellowships.

Application information by Department

TROPICAL STUDIES: UK is a member of OTS, the Organization for Tropical Studies that operates out of Duke University and Costa Rica and runs an array of outstanding field-based courses.  UK has had many graduate students participate in these courses - acceptance rates have been high and students get substantial financial support from UK.
