Yale University
Yale University was founded in 1701 in Killingworth, Connecticut.
Yale embarked on a steady expansion, establishing the Medical Institution (1810), Divinity School (1822), Law School (1843), Graduate School of Arts and Sciences (1847), the School of Fine Arts (1869) and School of Music (1894). In 1887 Yale College became Yale University.
Yale University comprises three major academic components: Yale College (the undergraduate program), the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences and ten professional schools. In addition, Yale encompasses a wide array of research organizations, libraries and museums, administrative and support offices. Approximately 11,250 students attend Yale.
Since 1701 Yale College has offered courses of study, leading to the bachelor’s degree. A course is simply a group of students, examining a particular subject under the direction of someone, who has studied it before. Yale College today offers about 1,400 term courses a year. A student, working for a bachelor’s degree, takes four or five courses each term and normally receives Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science degree, after completing thirty-six term courses or their equivalent in eight terms of enrolment.
Yale recognizes that freshmen enter college with different degrees of preparation and proficiency in various subjects. A substantial number of freshmen have completed advanced or honours work either on their own.
With about 2,000 term courses to choose among, Yale University students can study just about any subject imaginable. There are requirements to deal with, but Yale also encourages each student to design his or her own program of study based on individual needs and interests.
