GRADUATE STUDY AT THE UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
Critical judgment and originality of thought, informed and
disciplined by a high level of competence in a specialized
body of knowledge, are distinguishing traits of scholarship.
Graduate degree programs at the University of Houston, what-
ever their focus and field of specialization, share in common
the purpose of encouraging and developing these traits.
Graduate study at the master's degree level was first offered
in 1939 at the University of Houston. The University now
offers master's degrees in more than 50 fields of specialization,
including architecture, business administration, education,
engineering, humanities and fine arts, natural sciences and
mathematics, optometry, pharmacy, and social sciences.
A program leading to the doctorate in education was estab-
lished in 1945. Doctor of Philosophy programs were sub-
sequently added in psychology (1948), chemistry (1959),
chemical engineering (1959), economics (1959), biological
science (1960), biophysical sciences (1960), physics (1961),
mechanical engineering (1962), electrical engineering (1963),
mathematics (1965), English (1967), history (1967), engi-
neering-undifferentiated (1968), business-undifferentiated
(1969), political science (1969), physiological optics (1973),
and geology (1974). In the engineering-undifferentiated pro-
gram, Ph.D. degrees are available in civil engineering and
industrial engineering. Additional graduate degree programs
at both the master's and doctoral levels are in various stages
of planning. Inquiries about new or projected graduate pro-
grams may be directed to the Dean of Faculties Office.
Advanced degree programs not within the Graduate Studies
division include Doctor of Optometry, College of Optometry;
Doctor of Jurisprudence, Bates College of Law, and Master
of Social Work, Graduate School of Social Work. Inquiries
about these programs may be directed to the dean of the
appropriate school or college.
The University's general academic administration and the
academic colleges and departments share policy and adminis-
trative responsibilities for graduate studies. The academic
colleges and departments have primary responsibility for
determining course offerings, degree plans, and other aca-
demic requirements arising from the special purposes and
needs of the various degree programs. At the general academic
administrative level, the Graduate Council is primarily respon-
sible for formulating policies broadly supportive of graduate
education at the University; the Dean of Faculties Office is
primarily responsible for coordinating graduate education
policies and administering University policy generally affect-
ing graduate education; and the Dean of Admissions and
24
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
Records Office assists the colleges and departments in the
graduate admissions and records keeping functions.
GRADUATE-LEVEL INTER-INSTITUTIONAL AGREEMENT
The University of Houston has a reciprocal arrangement with
other graduate universities in the Houston area that enables
our graduate students to take for residence credit a limited
amount of graduate-level coursework not available at the
University of Houston. There is no payment of fees and tui-
tion at the host institution, and a simplified enrollment proce-
dure is used.
In addition to the University of Houston, other graduate
institutions participating in the inter-institutional agreement
are the Baylor College of Medicine, Rice University, The Uni-
versity of Texas Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences, and
The University of Texas School of Public Health.
Departments and colleges retain the usual authority to deter-
mine whether the work is applicable toward the student's
degree program. Details about the enrollment procedure may
be obtained from the Graduate Student Admissions Office,
room 129, Ezekiel Cullen Building.

UNIVERSITY LIBRARIES
The University of Houston Libraries include the M. D. Ander-
son Memorial Library (the main library), the Bates College
of Law Library, the Franzheim Architecture Library, the
Optometry Library, the Pharmacy Library, and the Engineer-
ing Reading Room. University transportation and communica-
tion links provide joint use of significant collections of mate-
rials at the University's Clear Lake City, Victoria and Down-
town College libraries, and cooperative arrangements allow
graduate students and faculty full borrowing privileges at the
Rice University Library, the libraries of the Texas Medical
Center, and other major research collections in the Houston
metropolitan area. In addition, the University's membership in
the Center for Research Libraries provides access to over
three million items of research material, and membership
in the John Crerar Library of Chicago allows use of one of
the nation's leading scientific collections. A statewide teletype
network called the Texas Information Exchange facilitates
use of other Texas libraries, and regular interlibrary loan
procedures provide access to other research libraries in this
country and abroad.
On August 31, 1974, library collections on the central campus
of the University numbered over 840,000 volumes and over
400,000 microforms, plus large quantities of manuscripts, maps
and other library materials. The University is a depository for
United States documents, and has the strongest collection of
current Federal publications in the Houston area.
The library collections have traditionally been strong in sci-
ence, engineering and technology, and in recent years collec-
tion development in the humanities and social sciences has
been emphasized. The holdings of newspapers on microfilm
are extensive, and include complete files of the London Times
and the New York Times plus substantial runs of other sig-
nificant national and international papers. United Nations
documents, the monumental collection of Early American Im-
prints (which includes. all monographic works published in
the United States before 1800), and papers of a number of
U.S. presidents and other large sets of research materials are
also available in microform. The Special Collections Depart-
ment houses manuscripts of several American authors, the
William B. Shrimplin Collection in American literature, the
Franzheim Memorial Collection of rare and historical works
in architecture and fine arts, the W. B. Bates Collection of
Texana and Western Americana, the W. K. Jones Collection
of Latin American plays, the Ballinger Mills Law Collection,
and a collection of rare Bibles. The Joseph W. Evans Bibliog-
raphy Room, located on the first floor of the M.D. Anderson
Library, contains an extensive collection of trade and national
GRADUATE STUDIES
27
bibliographies of most countries in Western Europe and Latin
America, the complete printed National Union Catalog, the
Library of Congress catalogs, and printed catalogs of many
other American research libraries.
Subject librarians in all major disciplines provide research
assistance to individual graduate students, lecture regularly to
advanced classes (especially those involved with the literature
or bibliography of a given field), and are responsible for the
development of collections in their subject areas. They are
thus well acquainted with both the library collections and the
needs of graduate students in specific fields.
Over 400 individual study carrels are available for assignment
on a first-come, first-serve basis to faculty and graduate stu-
dents working on master's theses or doctoral dissertations.
Inexpensive photocopying and typing facilities are located in
all libraries on campus, and a wide variety of audio-visual
services (including both conventional and micro-photography,
production of slides, graphs and art work, preparation of
videotapes, construction of electronic equipment, and booking
of films and film equipment) is available through the Audio-
Visual Department in the M.D. Anderson Library. Computer-
ized current awareness and search services of various types
may be arranged through the Reference Department, and a
Hinman Collator and Lindstrom Comparator are available for
bibliographic and textual research in the Special Collections
Department.
COMPUTER RESOURCES
The University of Houston has developed a network of com-
puter systems to satisfy the academic, research, and adminis-
trative requirements for computing services. The central
element in this network of computer systems is a UNIVAC
1108 system, located in the center of the campus in the under-
ground University Computing Center.
The UNIVAC 1108 configuration includes 262,000 words of
main memory, 400 million characters of rotating memory,
six magnetic tape units, four high-speed printers, two card
readers, and a card punch. Elements of the network which
access the 1108 include six remote batch card reader/printer
systems and a variety of video display and hard-copy time-
sharing devices.
Computer systems which are elements of the network and
also serve as special-purpose systems in a stand-alone mode
are an HP-2000F in the College of Technology and a UNIVAC
28
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
9400 in the College of Business. Located in the Cullen College
of Engineering is an IBM 360 Model 44 computer system
directly interfaced to an HST SS 100 analog computer for
analog-digital hybrid computation.
The Computing Center houses specialists in computer usage
and computer operation for development and maintenance of
the software systems utilized in the operation of the campus
computing resources. The Computing Center's library con-
tains documentation on the library of programs available for
all the computing facilities on the campus. Seminar rooms and
workrooms are also available in the Center for computer-
related activities by the campus computer-users.
FINANCIAL AIDS
A student who wishes to obtain an assistantship or teaching
fellowship should apply to the chairperson of the department
of his major. Stipends vary with assigned duties and may be
computed either on a semester to semester appointment or at
an hourly rate, depending upon the specific needs of the
department.
A limited number of other forms of financial assistance for
graduate students are available each year. Inquiries about
research assistantships should be directed to colleges and
departments. Information about graduate fellowships and
scholarships may be obtained from either colleges and depart-
ments or the Dean of Faculties Office. Financial loan informa-
tion may be obtained from the Office of Scholarships and
Financial Aids.
A graduate student who wishes to obtain part-time employ-
ment off campus should consult the chairperson of his depart-
ment and request listing with the University Placement Center.
HOUSING
Inquiries regarding living accommodations should be ad-
dressed to the Housing Office, University of Houston, Hous-
ton, Texas 77004.
THE GENERAL INFORMATION CATALOGUE
The General Information Catalogue, which may be obtained
from the Registrar's Office, acquaints the student with the
University of Houston community. It describes in detail
the regulations and requirements that affect every student.
GRADUATE STUDIES

ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS
Graduate Studies requires the following minimal qualifica-
tions for admission. Additional requirements are imposed by
the colleges and departments for admission to specific pro-
grams. The applicant should make inquiry directly to the
appropriate college and department for information concern-
ing additional requirements.
English Proficiency Requirement
All graduate students are expected to be proficient in the use
of English. International students must provide evidence of
English proficiency prior to admission. Further information
concerning English proficiency requirements for international
students may be found in the "International Student" section
of this catalogue.
Any student, prior to admission to Graduate Studies or during
his first semester of enrollment, may be required by his
department or college to demonstrate English proficiency
through submission of a satisfactory score on a test designated
by the department or college. The graduate student whose
English proficiency is marginal may be required by his
department or college to seek instruction in the English
Laboratory offered by the Department of English. The
graduate student whose English proficiency is judged inade-
quate by his department or college may expect to be denied
permission. to continue to work for a graduate degree.
Master's Programs
General Requirements
The applicant must have earned a bachelor's degree in an
institution accredited by a recognized accrediting agency.
Foreign institutions which may not be formally accredited by
United States accrediting agencies must be recognized as
maintaining high academic standards.
A student transferring from another graduate school must
have at least a 3.0 (A = 4.0) grade point average on all
graduate work attempted.
Unconditional Admission
For unconditional admission, the student must have a grade
point average of at least 3.0 (A = 4.0) on all work attempted,
graduate and/or undergraduate, beginning with the semester
during which the first of his 60 most recently earned semester
hours was taken.
Conditional Admission
Conditional admission may be granted a student who has a
34
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
grade point average of at least 2.6 (A = 4.0) on all work
attempted, graduate and/or undergraduate, beginning with
the semester during which the first of his 60 most recently
earned semester hours was taken and whose scores on the
appropriate admission examination are high enough to indi-
cate probable success in the graduate program.
Applicants with a grade point average of at least 2.6 and an
exceptionally high admissions test score may be considered for
unconditional admission. Scores must be presented well in
advance of the desired date of admission.
To remain in the Graduate Studies program, the conditionally
admitted student must earn a grade point average of at least
3.0 (A = 4.0) on the first 12 semester hours of attempted
graduate work attempted at the University of Houston subse-
quent to admission.
An international student may not be admitted conditionally
unless he or she has earned a degree from an accredited
United States institution.
Doctoral Programs
General Requirements
The applicant must have earned the master's degree or have
completed 30 semester hours of graduate work with a mini-
mum grade point average of 3.0 (A = 4.0).
Individual departments and colleges have established specific
requirements for admission to graduate study. The applicant
should make inquiry directly to the appropriate college and
department for information concerning additional require-
ments. The "Degree Requirements" section offers further
information concerning the requirements of each program.
CATEGORIES OF ADMISSION
There are four categories of admission as a graduate student.
Conditional and unconditional admission categories at the
master's level are described under "Admission Requirements."
Conditional admission is not granted to doctoral-level appli-
cants or to international students whose degree was not earned
at an accredited United States institution. Two remaining
categories for admission, both at the master's and the doctoral
levels, are described as follows:
Transient Admission
A graduate student in good standing at another recognized
graduate school may be admitted to graduate study at the
University of Houston as a nondegree transient student. This
GRADUATE STUDIES
35
mode of admission is granted only once and is normally re-
stricted to one summer session of attendance.
The transient student must submit an application for admis-
sion by April 9 for the First Summer Term or by June 11
for the Second Summer Term. A special statement of good
standing form must be obtained from the University of Hous-
ton Graduate Student Admissions Office and must be com-
pleted by the Dean of the Graduate School or equivalent
officer of the institution in which the applicant is enrolled
as a graduate student. The transient student who later wishes
to continue his attendance beyond the summer terms must
meet all regular admission requirements.
Transfer Student Admission
The transfer student must meet the regular admission re-
quirements. Credit may be transferred only for advanced
courses completed with a grade of A or B. These courses,
completed in residence under a graduate degree program,
must be certified as graduate level by the Office of Admissions
of the University of Houston. The amount of credit applied
to the graduate degree is also subject to the approval of the
individual department. Except in case of planned coordinated
interinstitutional programs approved in advance by the Grad-
uate Council, not more than nine semester hours of transfer
credit may be applied to a master's degree. Under no circum-
stances may more than one half of the credit necessary for
any graduate degree within the jurisdiction of Graduate
Studies be represented by credit transferred from other insti-
tutions. With the adviser's approval, a maximum of six semes-
ter hours of an earned master's degree may be applied to a
second master's degree. Regulations concerning time limita-
tions apply to transfer credit as well as to credit earned at the
University of Houston. All doctoral credit is also subject to
the approval of the department or college.
The credit to be accepted is subject to the Office of Admis-
sions' evaluation and must be consistent with the plans of the
student's adviser. The Office of Admissions will not grant
credit for a graduate course if the evaluated equivalent course
offered by the University of Houston does not warrant gradu-
ate credit. Advanced work completed with another institution
prior to the time the institution offered graduate credit will
not apply as credit toward an advanced degree at the Univer-
sity of Houston. The student bears the final responsibility for
securing the Office of Admissions' evaluation and the accep-
tance by his department of transferred credit toward his
degree.
36
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
THE INTERNATIONAL STUDENT
Any student who is not a United States citizen is classified
as an international student by the University, regardless of
residency or immigration status. Recognizing the special needs
of those who are not citizens, the University has established
a separate office to deal exclusively with international stu-
dents. Therefore, international students must apply to Gradu-
ate Studies through the International Students Admissions
Office, University of Houston. All test scores and transcripts,
as well as specific inquiries about requirements or procedures,
should also be directed to the International Student Admis-
sions Office (ISAO).
Accepted applicants should begin their initial registration at
the University in the International Student Admissions Office.
Once enrolled for classes, graduate international students are
governed by the same procedures and regulations as are other
graduate students.
It is recommended that the international student submit his
application and other required credentials to the ISAO by
the following dates to insure prompt processing:
Fall semester
June 1
Spring semester
November 1
Summer semester
April 1
The international student must submit two official copies of
transcripts from each college or university previously at-
tended. To be eligible for admission to graduate studies, the
student must have completed all requirements for a four-year
degree with at least a 3.0 (B) average at a recognized in-
stitution. Foreign institutions which are not formally ac-
credited by a United States accrediting agency must be
recognized as maintaining high academic standards.
International students may not be admitted conditionally
unless they have earned a degree from an accredited United
States college or university.
In addition to the application form and transcript copies, the
international student must also submit scores on the Test of
English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) before admission
will be granted. Specifically excluded from this requirement
are:
1. Citizens of Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the
United Kingdom.
2. U.S. college graduates with bachelor's or master's de-
grees.
GRADUATE STUDIES
37
Regardless of classification, admitted students must take a
second English test upon arrival at the University. Information
concerning the TOEFL may be obtained from the Educational
Testing Service, Box 899, Princeton, New Jersey, 08540, U.S.A.
In addition to information contained in this catalogue, the
international student should request and study the General
Information Catalogue of the University. Inquiries regarding
procedures or policies should be directed to the International
Student Admissions Office, University of Houston, Houston,
Texas 77004.
REGULATIONS
The student's continued enrollment in the Graduate Studies
program of the University of Houston is governed by a series
of regulations. These regulations are classified as general and
scholastic.
General Regulations
Planning the Graduate Program
In general the graduate student is expected to be enrolled
each semester until completion of the degree program and
award of the degree. The graduate student who is not
enrolled should not expect the facilities of the University to
be available to him. Such facilities include (but are not lim-
ited to) office and classroom space, laboratories, library and
faculty resources, and administration of oral or written exami-
nations. Exceptions to this requirement may be granted upon
petition to the appropriate college dean.
Graduate Classification
A student is classified as a graduate student when his admis-
sion application and credentials have been approved and he
has registered for classes as a graduate student at the Univer-
sity of Houston. All graduate students must go through the
formal application process in order to obtain the graduate
student classification.
Post-Baccalaureate Classification
A post-baccalaureate student is one who has earned one or
more degrees and who is enrolled for credit that will not be
applied to a graduate degree. An applicant seeking post-
baccalaureate status rather than graduate status must apply
to the Office of Admissions, University of Houston, Houston,
Texas 77004.
38
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
Applicable Graduate Credit
Graduate credit is not granted for correspondence courses,
extension courses, advanced standing examinations, and
courses taken prior to the student's admission to a graduate
school. The "Time Limitation" section specifies additional
restrictions.
A student may petition, however, to have graduate credit
granted for course-work completed as a post-baccalaureate
student under the following conditions:
1. The course must be of 600 level or higher.
or
2. The student conformed to the same standards required
of graduate students similarly enrolled, if the course
is below the 600 level.
Course Numbering and Level of Credit
All courses in the 100 and 200 levels are machine controlled
so that no graduate credit may be earned. Students who are
classified as graduate students at the University of Houston
automatically receive graduate credit for any course num-
bered 300 or higher unless the restriction "undergraduate
credit only" or equivalent phrase is stated within the course
description. Credit for a 300-, 400-, or 500-level course, how-
ever, may be applied to a graduate degree only upon approval
of the student's major department.
The graduate student who does not wish to earn graduate
credit in a course numbered 300 or higher must file a Mixed
Program Petition with the appropriate college office imme-
diately after payment of tuition and fees.
A qualified University of Houston senior may take a limited
number of courses for graduate credit if he lacks no more
than 12 semester hours for his degree. The senior is limited
to 15 semester hours including graduate work. The student
may receive permission to enroll for graduate credit through
a Mixed Program Petition, which must be filed with the
appropriate college office immediately after payment of tui-
tion and fees.
Changes of Major, Degree, and Classification
The student who wishes to change his major field of study,
degree objective, or classification should obtain the appropri-
ate petition from the college dean's office.
Course Load
The graduate student may not for any reason enroll for an
GRADUATE STUDIES
39
overload. The maximum course load, including thesis or dis-
sertation, is 15 semester hours for a fall or spring semester
and 13 semester hours for the combined six-week summer
sessions. A maximum of 7 semester hours may be taken in
one six-week summer session.
Twelve semester hours are considered a full-time course load
for a fall or spring semester. Certification of full-time equiva-
lency may be approved by the dean of the appropriate col-
lege upon the recommendation of the department chairperson
if the course load is less than 12 semester hours for a fall or
spring semester.
A full-time course load for each six-week summer session is
maximally 6 semester hours; for a twelve-week summer ses-
sion, the full-time course load is maximally 12 semester hours.
Certification of full-time equivalency may be approved by
the dean of the appropriate college upon the recommendation
of the department chairperson if the course load is less than
12 semester hours for a twelve-week summer session or 6
semester hours for each six-week summer session.
Full-time enrollment is normally required of the following
categories of graduate students:
1. Students receiving financial support from the Univer-
sity in the form of scholarships, academic fellowships,
teaching fellowships/assistantships, research fellow-
ships/assistantships, or other forms of support at a
level comparable to teaching fellowships/assistant-
ships.
2. Students who are making significant use of such Uni-
versity resources as the library, the computer center,
office space, laboratory space, other research facilities,
and faculty time.
3. Students who are meeting residency requirements.
4. Students who are enrolled for thesis or dissertation
credit only.
Continuing Graduate Study Beyond the Master's Level
The student who completes his master's degree program (or
equivalent, if permitted by the department) and continues
graduate study must file a petition to record his change to
the doctorate or no degree objective and, if applicable, his
new major field. This Change of Major/Degree Objective
petition may be obtained from the college office.
40
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
Restriction of Enrollment in Courses 600 and Higher
Courses numbered 600 and higher are restricted to graduate
and post-baccalaureate students. A student of any other
classification must secure the recommendation of his adviser
and the approval of the appropriate college dean for his en-
rollment. The Mixed Program Petition, which may be obtained
from the college office, should be used for this purpose.
Time Limitation
The student who matriculated as a graduate student at the
University of Houston during or since the Fall Semester 1966
must complete the usual master's degree program within
five years of his date of matriculation at the University of
Houston. Transfer credit may not apply to any degree if at
commencement the course credit is more than five years old.
The student who matriculated as a graduate student at the
University of Houston before the Fall Semester 1966 must
complete the usual master's degree program within eight
years of his date of matriculation at the University of Houston.
Transfer credit may not apply to any master's degree if at
commencement the course credit is more than eight years old.
The doctoral student who fails to complete his dissertation
within five years after completion of the comprehensive ex-
amination must retake the examination.
With the exception of programs for which another termina-
tion date has been specified, no degree shall be granted for
a graduate program not completed within five years of its
deletion from the catalogue.
Termination of Enrollment
A satisfactory rate of progress toward the degree is required
throughout the student's enrollment. A department may termi-
nate a student's enrollment at any time if his rate of progress
is not satisfactory. A student whose enrollment is terminated
should be so notified with an explanation in writing by the
chairperson of his department. Copies of this notice and ex-
planation should be sent to the dean of the student's college.
Planning the Graduate Program
The graduate student should consult his program's graduate
adviser before each registration. The student is required to
fulfill the special requirements of his particular degree pro-
gram in addition to the general requirements stipulated by
Graduate Studies. Some specific degree requirements are
listed with the appropriate degree programs in this catalogue.
GRADUATE STUDIES
41
Additional degree requirements may be obtained from. the
graduate adviser of each program.
Residency
In a graduate program which requires a thesis, at least 21
semester hours of credit required for the master's degree
must be earned in residence at the University of Houston. For
programs of 36 semester hours, at least 27 semester hours
must be earned in residence.
In doctoral programs, minimum residence requirements are
set by the individual department, but in no case shall the
requirement be less than one academic year of continuous
full-time enrollment.
Foreign Language Requirement
There is no uniform foreign language requirement for gradu-
ate degree programs. This requirement is determined by the
appropriate college's graduate faculty. Further information
may be found in the foreign language section under each col-
lege's degree requirements.
Application for Candidacy
The graduate student must be approved for candidacy for
his degree as early as the regulations below permit and not
later than the following deadlines:
Fall graduation
August 28
Spring graduation

May 28
Students failing to file for candidacy by the appropriate dead-
line will have their application for graduation disapproved.
The master's student should file an application for admission
to candidacy with the college office as soon as he has satis-
factorily completed at least 12 semester hours of graduate
work at this institution with a grade average of B or better;
satisfactorily completed his department's qualifying examina-
tion, if required; and satisfactorily completed all special re-
quirements, if any, of his college and the department of his
major. After the college office has verified completion of
these requirements, the student will be sent a formal notice
of admission to candidacy for the degree.
The doctoral student must also file for candidacy by the dead-
lines listed above, and should do so at the time he successfully
completes the comprehensive, qualifying, or proposal exami-
nation of his department. In no case may the doctoral can-
42
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
didate file for candidacy later than one semester prior to that
in which he plans to graduate (e.g., in the summer for fall
graduates).
Candidacy applications for graduate students are available
in the college office.
Scholastic Regulations
Scholastic Average and the Four-C Rule
A minimum grade point average of 3.0 (B) over all graduate
courses attempted is required for a graduate degree; failure
to maintain this average may result in warning, probation,
or suspension.
(1) Grade points are assigned as follows: 4 for each semester
hour of A, 3 for B, 2 for C, 1 for D, and 0 for F.
(2) The grade of I (incomplete) must be changed by ful-
fillment of course requirements within 12 months of the
date awarded or it will remain an I, unless changed by
the instructor. In the case of a student enrolled in his
graduating semester, a grade of I which has not been
changed by the date of graduation will have the effect
of an F, regardless of the amount of time that has
elapsed since the I grade was awarded.
(3) No credit toward a graduate degree is allowed for
courses in which grades of D or F are earned although
the grades are included in the grade point average.
(4) The cumulative grade point average and the Four-C
Rule are based upon all of the student's work taken
at the University of Houston, including courses that
are repeated, for which grade point values are assigned.
Grades of S, U, I, and W are not assigned grade point
values.
(5) The thesis or dissertation grade is not included in the
grade point average.
(6) Certain graduate courses, as specified annually by the
department, may be graded as S (satisfactory), U (un-
satisfactory), and I (incomplete). Such grades will not
be considered in computing a grade point average.
Four-C Rule. The graduate student who receives a grade of
C or lower in four courses (12 semester hours), whether or
not in repeated courses, attempted at this institution for grad-
uate credit is ineligible for any advanced degree at this
institution and will not be permitted to reenroll for graduate
study. The "Termination of Enrollment" section specifies
other regulations.
GRADUATE STUDIES
43
THESIS OR DISSERTATION
Approval of Thesis or Dissertation Proposal
The student may not begin his research prior to admission to
candidacy without the approval of his adviser. The thesis or
dissertation must present evidence of a mastery of the litera-
ture, a significant contribution to knowledge, and the ability
to do independent research.
The approval of the thesis or dissertation proposal must be
received from the student's thesis or dissertation committee,
which is appointed by the dean of the college upon the
advice of the appropriate department chairperson.
The final draft of the thesis or dissertation must be completed
and submitted to the advisory committee as early as stipulated
by the committee, but no later than the following deadlines:
Fall graduation
November 3
Spring graduation
April 2
Summer graduation
June 30
The paragraph regarding "Binding and Distribution of Thesis
and Dissertation" on the following pages specifies deadlines
for submission of the approved thesis or dissertation to the
college office.
Continuous Registration and Credit for Thesis or Dissertation.
The student who is working on a thesis or dissertation (includ-
ing the student who is registered in absentia) is considered
to be a full-time student and is expected to comply with the
enrollment requirements as set forth in the section entitled
Course Load (see page 39). Advice or assistance from a
member of the faculty in the preparation of the thesis or
dissertation should not be expected unless the student is
officially enrolled.
The student is required to be continuously enrolled, and en-
rollment is required in the semester in which the thesis or
dissertation is submitted to and accepted by the University.
Failure to enroll in thesis or dissertation courses may delay
the student's graduation.
A person who lives in excess of 100 miles from the University
may register in absentia for thesis or dissertation courses if
arrangements are made through the Registrar's Office at least
two weeks before the registration period. Registration for all
other students must be completed in the prescribed manner
during the announced registration period. The thesis or dis-
sertation course is considered a part of the student's current
course load.
44
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
"Thesis (or dissertation) in progress" is shown without a
grade on the student's permanent record card for each regis-
tration period until the semester or term in which it is satisfac-
torily completed. Upon completion, "thesis (or dissertation)
completed" will be shown with a grade for that semester only.
The college office will send a copy of the "Certification of
Submission of Thesis/Dissertation Form" (showing submis-
sion of the thesis or dissertation to the college office) to the
student's department chairperson. The chairperson then re-
ports the thesis or dissertation grade to the Registrar's Office.
A final grade of B or better is required in the completed thesis
or dissertation. A grade of C indicates that the thesis or dis-
sertation is not acceptable. Students who are not progressing
satisfactorily may be asked to withdraw.
An optional graduate grading system of S (satisfactory), U
(unsatisfactory), or I (incomplete) may be elected by any
department for a given period, generally the academic year.
Grades in the thesis or dissertation courses, whether under
the optional or regular grading system, are not considered in
computing a student's grade point average.
For the master's thesis, six semester hours may be earned.
Although more than this number may be required of the stu-
dent, six is the maximum number of hours which may be
applied toward the master's degree. Credit allowed toward
the degree for the doctoral dissertation will be determined by
the students major department.
An examination, oral and/or written, over the research study
will be held upon completion of the thesis or dissertation.
Suggested Form for Thesis or Dissertation
As a general rule, the format and style of presentation should
conform to the most acceptable standards of scientific and
scholarly writing in the discipline. For the instance in which
this general rule is an inadequate guide, reference should be
made to a recent edition of A Manual of Style (The University
of Chicago Press) or to Kate L. Turabian, A Manual for Writ-
ers (The University of Chicago Press). The Turabian Manual
is an abridged version of the University of Chicago Manual of
Style and may be purchased from the University of Houston
Bookstore. The title page and abstract title page must bear
the month and year of commencement.
Before preparing the thesis or dissertation, the student should
obtain a copy of the guide for the preparation and submission
of theses and dissertations from the appropriate college office.
GRADUATE STUDIES
45
Binding and Distribution of Thesis or Dissertation
The original and two copies of the approved thesis or dis-
sertation should be submitted to the appropriate college office
for binding as early as possible, but not later than 4 p.m. of
the following dates:
Fall graduation
December 3
Spring graduation
May 3
Summer graduation
July 28
Students who fail to meet these deadlines may be required
to refile applications for graduation for a subsequent semester.
The original and one copy of the thesis or dissertation are
retained by the Library, and one copy goes to the student's
major department. The binding fee is $6 per copy. The
college will send a copy of the "Certification of Submission
of Thesis/Dissertation Form" to the student's department
chairperson. The chairperson then reports the thesis or dis-
sertation grade to the Registrar's Office.
Microfilming of Doctoral Dissertation
A microfilming fee of $20° is required in addition to the
binding fee. This fee will provide for microfilming the com-
plete dissertation and publication of an abstract of 600 words
or less. Fee for extra pages of abstract is $3* per page.
Agreement Forms. A University Microfilms Agreement form
must be completed by the student at the time the dissertation
is presented to the college. An extra copy of the abstract and
abstract title page must be furnished for submission with the
Agreement to University Microfilms.
Copyright. Ordinarily the microfilm of the dissertation will
not be copyrighted. If desired, copyright registration may be
requested as provided by the agreement form. 0 Copyright fee
is $16.°
Publication
The published article or book should include a note indicating
that the material is, or is based upon, a thesis or dissertation
submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the
designated degree at the University of Houston.
FINAL COMPREHENSIVE EXAMINATION
In some departments, the program for the Master of Arts
degree may not include a thesis but may require a final com-
46
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
prehensive examination. The graduate student is expected to
be enrolled each semester until completion of the degree
program and award of the degree. During the term in which
he takes the final comprehensive examination, the graduate
student in such a non-thesis program is considered to be a
full-time student and is expected to comply with the enroll-
ment requirements as set forth in the section entitled Course
Load (see p. 39).
GRADUATION
The application for graduation should not be confused with
the "application for candidacy." A graduate student must be
an approved candidate for the degree prior to the start of the
semester in which the application for graduation is filed.
Application for Graduation
Degrees are not awarded automatically upon completion of
scholastic requirements. To be considered as a candidate for
a degree, the student must submit an application for gradua-
tion to the Registrar's Office, room 31 Ezekiel Cullen Building.
Although applications should be filed during the registration
period for the semester in which the student plans to graduate,
they will be accepted until October 30 for fall graduation,
March 24 for spring graduation, and June 17 for summer
graduation. Students who expect to complete their require-
ments in the second summer term and who were not enrolled
for the first summer term must submit their applications for
graduation on or before July 25.
Graduation Under a Particular Catalogue
A student normally is entitled to graduate under the degree
provisions of the catalogue in effect at the time of his first
completed semester of enrollment. The following exceptions
apply:
a. A catalogue more than ten years old shall not be used.
b. The program of the student who interrupts his enrollment
(for reasons other than involuntary military service) for
more than one calendar year shall be governed by the
catalogue in effect at the time of the student's reentrance
to the University. The student who interrupts his enroll-
*The University reserves the right to change without notice tuition, other
charges, and related requirements and regulations as necessitated by Univer-
sity or legislative action.
GRADUATE STUDIES
47
ment for involuntary military service must reenroll within
one year from the date of separation from service and
no more than five years from the beginning of his military
service in order for this provision to apply. For these
purposes enrollment shall be defined as registration for
and successful completion of at least one course during
an academic term. A student forced to withdraw for
adequate cause before completion of his course may
petition for a waiver of this provision at the time of
withdrawal.
C. The program of the student who changes his major from
one college to another within the University shall be
governed by the degree requirements in effect at the
time the change of major becomes effective.
d. With the exception of programs for which another termi-
nation date has been specified, no degree shall be granted
for a graduate program not completed within five years
after it has been deleted from the catalogue.
e. The student must meet "Time Limitation" requirements,
described on page 41.

Because of the variability in departmental policies regarding some steps and requirements, the student should consult either his depart-
ment adviser or the college when questions occur. Deadlines for submission of theses, dissertations, and applications for candidacy and
graduation are uniform for all degrees. The student is encouraged to familiarize himself with the Graduate Studies calendar to obtain
these important dates.
AD HOC INTERDISCIPLINARY DOCTORAL
DEGREE OPTION
The Graduate Council has authorized departments granting
Ph.D. degrees to modify their regularly established Ph.D.
degree course requirements in individual cases to permit a
larger component of coursework outside the department. In
these instances the design of the ad hoc interdisciplinary
curriculum and the names of the graduate faculty, drawn
from both the sponsoring department and supporting depart-
ments who are to be responsible for directing the student's
progress through the curriculum and dissertation, are to be
submitted for approval to the dean of the college in which
the sponsoring department is located. A copy of the form
indicating the dean's approval is to be forwarded, for record,
to the Dean of Faculties Office. A Ph.D. level graduate stu-
dent interested in this option should consult first with the
director of graduate studies in the appropriate department
about its availability within the department.

THE NEW GRADUATE STUDIES BUILDING
GRADUATE STUDY AT THE UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
Critical judgment and originality of thought, informed and
disciplined by a high level of competence in a specialized
body of knowledge, are distinguishing traits of scholarship.
Graduate degree programs at the University of Houston, what-
ever their focus and field of specialization, share in common
the purpose of encouraging and developing these traits.
Graduate study at the master's degree level was first offered
in 1939 at the University of Houston. The University now
offers master's degrees in more than 40 fields of specialization,
including business administration, education, engineering,
optometry, pharmacy, and most areas of the arts and sciences.
A program leading to the doctorate in education was estab-
lished in 1945. Doctor of Philosophy programs were sub-
sequently added in psychology (1948), chemistry (1959),
chemical engineering (1959), economics (1959), biological
science (1960), biophysical sciences (1960), physics (1961),
mechanical engineering (1962), electrical engineering (1963),
mathematics (1965), English (1967), history (1967), en-
gineering-undifferentiated (1968), business-undifferentiated
(1969), and political, science (1969). In the engineering-
undifferentiated program, Ph.D. Degrees are available in civil
engineering and industrial engineering. Additional graduate
degree programs at both the master's and doctoral levels are
in various stages of planning. Inquiries about new or projected
graduate programs may be directed to the Dean of the Grad-
uate School.
Advanced degree programs not administered by the Graduate
School include Doctor of Optometry, College of Optometry;
Doctor of Jurisprudence, Bates College of Law; and Master
of Social Work, Graduate School of Social Work. Inquiries
about these programs may be directed to the dean of the
appropriate school or college.
Both the Graduate School and the instructional colleges and
departments have policy and administrative responsibilities at
the graduate level. The instructional colleges and departments
have primary responsibility for determining course offerings,
degree plans, and other academic requirements arising from
the special needs of the various degree programs. The Grad-
uate School has a primary responsibility for formulating and
administering policies broadly supportive of quality graduate
education, regardless of the field of specialization.
Graduate School policies are formulated by the Graduate
Council, consisting of both permanent and rotating members.
22
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
The permanent members are ex officio and represent the Uni-
versity's central academic administration and the administra-
tion of the instructional colleges offering graduate programs
within the Graduate School. Rotating members, who serve for
overlapping two-year terms, are drawn proportionally from
the graduate faculties of the instructional colleges. The Grad-
uate Council is chaired by the Dean of the Graduate School.
Standing and ad hoc committees of graduate faculty or of
graduate students advise the. Graduate Council and the Dean
of the Graduate School on policy and administration. The
Dean of the Graduate School and his staff, who constitute
the Graduate School Office, are responsible for administering
policies determined by the Graduate Council.

UNIVERSITY LIBRARIES
Resources for research at the University of Houston Libraries
have expanded steadily during the past decade. On August 31,
1971, the collections in the library system numbered 664,469
volumes plus large quantities of microform and manuscripts.
Basic serial sets and reference books are available in most
disciplines. The monographic collections in some fields, e.g.,
Spanish language and literature and modern American drama,
are extensive. The library is a depository for U.S. documents
and has the strongest collection of current federal publica-
tions in the Houston area. In retrospective documents it is
especially strong in NASA and the U.S. Geological Survey
materials. The University also has one of the two sets of
technical reports for Project Mohole.
The presence of the Texas Gulf Coast Historical Collections
with both the family and official papers of Governor James
V. Allred, Robert Welch, John Henry Kirby, Joseph S. Cul-
linan, and Charles A. Warner, as well as the records of the
Mills law firm of Galveston, make the library a center for
research in the economic and political history of the Texas
Gulf Coast. Extensive journal files provide good coverage in
chemistry; chemical, electrical, and mechanical engineering;
mathematics; and biology.
In the M. D. Anderson Memorial Library, the central research
facility of the library system, are important files of news-
papers on microfilm; the United Nations documents on micro-
print; the Early American Imprints on microprint; the Facts
on Film series of the Southern Education Reporting Service,
dealing with desegregation of school systems since 1954;
microfilm of the Library of Congress presidential papers;
and a dozen microfilm readers, including reader-printers. The
University issues the Newspaper Resources of Southeast Texas
for the Houston area and cooperates with other libraries in
expanding such resources.
The eighth floor houses the Special Collections Division,
which contains manuscripts of several American authors,
the W. B. Bates Collection of Texana and Western Americana,
a representative collection of rare Bibles, the William B.
Shrimplin Collection in American Literature, the Franzheim
Memorial Collection in historical architecture, and the Uni-
versity Archives.
The Evans Memorial Bibliography Collection on the first floor
contains the national and trade bibliographies of most coun-
tries in Western Europe and Latin America, plus the printed
catalogs of many American research libraries. The Evans
Collection is also strong in historical bibliography.
GRADUATE SCHOOL
25
The University of Houston is one of the major contributors to
The Texas List, a union list of serials in science, technology,
business, commerce, and industry. Through daily delivery
service to local libraries and through a statewide teletype net-
work of academic libraries called the Texas Information Ex-
change, graduate students have access to less frequently used
titles in other Texas libraries. The library is also a member
of the John Crerar Library in Chicago, one of the nation's
leading scientific collections. The resources of many collec-
tions are readily available to University of Houston graduate
students and faculty. Application may be made to the Inter-
library Loan Librarian in the Circulation Department for
these services. Inexpensive photocopying and typing facilities
are available in all libraries of the system. Within the M. D.
Anderson Memorial Library are more than 400 individual
study carrels, many of which are assigned to graduate stu-
dents working on master's theses or doctoral dissertations.
Reference librarians regularly lecture to advanced classes,
especially those involved in the literature or bibliography of
a given field, and are on duty in various divisions of the
library during the hours of heaviest library use. Divisional
librarians are well acquainted with the collections in their
respective areas and can help the graduate student make the
fullest use of the library's resources. A library handbook
provides the beginning graduate student with an excellent
overview of the library's services.
COMPUTER RESOURCES
The University of Houston has developed a network of com-
puter systems to satisfy the academie, research, and adminis-
trative requirements for computing services. The central
element in this network of computer systems is a UNIVAC
1108 system, located in the center of the campus in the under-
ground University Computing Center. The UNIVAC 1108
configuration includes 131,000 words of main memory, 200
million characters of rotating memory, six magnetic tape
units, two high-speed printers, a card reader, and a card
punch. By means of a 28-channel communication control
system, the UNIVAC 1108 is directly attached to other
computer systems and computer terminal devices on the
campus. Located in the Cullen College of Engineering Build-
ing is an SCC DCT 132 computer system with a card reader
and printer directly connected to the UNIVAC 1108 for
remote job entry and return. Also located in the Cullen
College of Engineering is an IBM 360 Model 44 computer
system directly interfaced to an HSI SS 100 analog computer
for analog-digital hybrid computation. Located in the College
26
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
of Business' Heyne Building is an IBM 1130 computer system
directly connected to the UNIVAC 1108 for remote job entry.
In addition to these systems, there are approximately 25 inter-
active terminals consisting of teletypes and cathode ray tube
devices located in various buildings on campus and inter-
faced by dial-up telephone lines to the UNIVAC 1108 com-
puter system. This network of computer systems continues
to develop as terminals of various types are added to the
system in remote locations about the campus.
The Computing Center houses specialists in computer usage
and computer operation for development and maintenance of
the software systems utilized in the operation of the campus
computing resources. The Computing Center's library con-
tains documentation on the library of programs available for
all the computing facilities on the campus. Seminar rooms
and workrooms are also available in the Center for computer-
related activities by the campus computer users.

mum grade point average of 3.0 (A = 4.0).
Individual departments and colleges have established specific
requirements for admission to graduate study. The applicant
should make inquiry directly to the appropriate college and
department for information concerning additional require-
ments. The "Degree Requirements" section offers further
information concerning the requirements of each program.
Admission Examinations
The applicant for admission to a doctoral program of study
should refer to the preceding chart on "Admission Examina-
tions."
Applications for Admission Examinations
Applications for the General Aptitude Test of the GRE may
be obtained from the Educational Testing Service, 1947
Center Street, Berkeley, California 94704.
Applications for the Admission Test for Graduate Study in
Business (ATGSB) may be obtained from the Educational
Testing Service, 20 Nassau Street, Princeton, New Jersey
08540.
The General Aptitude Test of the GRE is generally ad-
ministered six times a year, and the Admission Test for
Graduate Study in Business, four times a year. The student
should contact the Educational Testing Service at least four
months in advance of contemplated enrollment.
Test scores are not available until about five weeks after an
examination.
CATEGORIES OF ADMISSION
There are four categories of admission to the Graduate School.
Conditional and unconditional admission categories at the
master's level are described under "Admission Requirements."
Conditional admission is not granted to doctoral-level ap-
plicants or to international students. Two remaining cate-
gories for admission, both at the master's and the doctoral
levels, are described as follows:
GRADUATE SCHOOL
33
Transient Admission
A graduate student in good standing at another recognized
graduate school may be admitted to graduate study at the
University of Houston as a nondegree transient student. This
mode of admission is granted only once and is restricted to
one summer session of attendance.
The transient student must submit an application for admis-
sion by April 9 for the First Summer Term or by June 11
for the Second Summer Term. A special statement of good
standing form must be obtained from the University of Hous-
ton Graduate School and must, be completed by the Dean
of the Graduate School or equivalent officer of the institution
in which the applicant is enrolled as a graduate student. The
transient student who later wishes to continue his attendance
beyond the summer terms must meet all regular admission
requirements.
Transfer Student Admission
The transfer student must meet the regular admission re-
quirements. Credit may be transferred only for advanced
courses completed with a grade of A or B. These courses,
completed in residence under a graduate degree program,
must be certified as graduate level by the Registrar of the
University of Houston. The amount of credit applied to the
graduate degree is also subject to the approval of the individ-
ual department. Except in case of planned coordinated inter-
institutional programs approved in advance by the Graduate
Council, not more than nine semester hours of transfer credit
may be applied to a master's degree. Under no circumstances
may more than one half of the credit necessary for any grad-
uate degree within the jurisdiction of the Graduate School
be represented by credit transferred from other institutions.
With the adviser's approval, a maximum of six semester hours
of an earned master's degree may be applied to a second mas-
ter's degree. Regulations concerning time limitations apply to
transfer credit as well as to credit earned at the University of
Houston. All doctoral credit is also subject to the approval of
the department or college.
The credit to be accepted is subject to the Registrar's evalua-
tion and must be consistent with the plans of the student's
adviser. The Registrar will not grant credit for a graduate
course if the evaluated equivalent course offered by the
University of Houston does not warrant graduate credit. Ad-
vanced work completed with another institution prior to the
time the institution offered graduate credit will not apply as
credit toward an advanced degree at the University of Hous-
34
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
ton. The student bears the final responsibility for securing the
Registrar's evaluation and the acceptance by his department
of transferred credit toward his degree.
GRADUATE-LEVEL INTER-INSTITUTIONAL AGREEMENT
The University of Houston has a reciprocal arrangement with
other graduate universities in the Houston area that enables
our graduate students to take for residence credit a limited
amount of graduate-level coursework not available at the
University of Houston. There is no payment of fees and tui-
tion at the host institution, and a simplified enrollment proce-
dure is used. Departments and colleges retain the usual
authority to determine whether the work is applicable toward
the student's degree program. Details about the enrollment
procedure may be obtained from the Graduate School Office.
THE INTERNATIONAL STUDENT
Applicants who are not U. S. citizens must address all com-
munications and documents to the Director, International
Student Admissions Office. In addition to requirements listed
in this catalogue for all applicants to the Graduate School,
the international student must meet all requirements of the
Director of the International Student Admissions Office. The
international student also must have completed all require-
ments for a four-year degree with at least a 3.0 (B) average
at a recognized institution. Foreign institutions which are

REGULATIONS
The student's continued enrollment in the Graduate School of
GRADUATE SCHOOL
35
the University of Houston is governed by a series of regula-
tions. These regulations are classified as general, graduate
program, and scholastic.
General Regulations
Graduate Classification
A student is classified as a graduate student when his admis-
sion application and credentials have been approved and he
has registered as a graduate student at the University of
Houston. A post-baccalaureate student is one who has earned
one or more degrees and who is enrolled for credit that will
not be applied to a graduate degree. An applicant seeking
post-baccalaureate status rather than graduate status must
apply to the Registrar's Office.
Applicable Graduate Credit
Graduate credit is not granted for correspondence courses,
extension courses, courses taken at the Downtown School of
the University of Houston, advanced standing examinations,
and courses taken prior to the student's admission to a gradu-
ate school. The "Time Limitation" section specifies additional
restrictions.
Course Numbering and Level of Credit
All courses in the 100 and 200 levels are machine controlled
so that no graduate credit may be, earned. Students who are
classified as graduate students at the University of Houston
automatically receive graduate credit for any course num-
bered 300 or higher unless the restriction "undergraduate
credit only" or equivalent phrase is stated within the course
description. Credit for a 300-, 400-, or 500-level course, how-
ever, may be applied to a graduate degree only upon approval
of the student's major department. The graduate student who
does not wish to earn graduate credit in a course numbered
300 or higher must file a Mixed Program Petition with the
Graduate School Office immediately after payment of tuition
and fees.
A qualified University of Houston senior may take a limited
number of courses for graduate credit if he lacks no more
than 12 semester hours for his degree. The senior is limited
to 15 semester hours including graduate work. The student
may receive permission to enroll for graduate credit through
a Mixed Program Petition, which must be filed with the
Graduate School Office immediately after payment of tuition
and fees.
36
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
Changes of Major, Degree, and Classification
The student who wishes to change his major field of study,
degree objective, or classification should obtain the appropri-
ate petition from the Graduate School Office.
Course Load
The graduate student may not for any reason enroll for an
overload. The maximum course load, including thesis or
dissertation, is 15 semester hours for a fall or spring semester
and 13 semester hours for the combined summer terms. A
maximum of seven semester hours may be taken in one sum-
mer term. Nine semester hours are considered a full-time
course load for a fall or spring semester. Certification of full-
time equivalency by the department chairman is required
if the course load is less than nine hours for a fall or spring
semester. The form for establishing full-time equivalency may
be obtained from the Registrar's Office.
Continuing Graduate Study Beyond the Master's Level
The student who completes his master's degree program (or
equivalent, if permitted by the department) and continues
graduate study must file a petition to record his change to
the doctorate or no degree objective and, if applicable, his
new major field. This Change of Major/Degree Objective
petition may be obtained from the Graduate School Office.
Restriction of Enrollment in Courses 600 and Higher
Courses numbered 600 and higher are restricted to graduate
and post-baccalaureate students. A student of any other
classification must secure the recommendation of his adviser
and the approval of the Graduate Dean for his enrollment.
The Mixed Program Petition, which may be obtained from
the Graduate School Office, should be used for this purpose.
Time Limitation
The student who matriculated as a graduate student at the
University of Houston during or since the Fall Semester 1966
must complete the usual master's degree program within
five years of his date of matriculation at the University of
Houston. Transfer credit may not apply to any degree if at
commencement the course credit is more than five years old.
The student who matriculated as a graduate student at the
University of Houston before the Fall Semester 1966 must
complete the usual master's degree program within eight
years of his date of matriculation at the University of Houston.
GRADUATE SCHOOL
37
Transfer credit may not apply to any master's degree if at
commencement the course credit is more than eight years old.
The doctoral student who fails to complete his dissertation
within five years after completion of the comprehensive
examination must retake the examination.
With the exception of programs for which another termina-
tion date has been specified, no degree shall be granted for
a graduate program not completed within five years of its
deletion from the catalogue.
Termination of Enrollment
A satisfactory rate of progress toward the degree is required
throughout the student's enrollment. A department may termi-
nate a student's enrollment at any time if his rate of progress
is not satisfactory. A student whose enrollment is terminated
should be so notified with an explanation in writing by the
chairman of his department. Copies of this notice and ex-
planation should be sent to the dean of the student's college
and to the Dean of the Graduate School.
Graduate Program Regulations
Planning the Graduate Program
The graduate student should consult his program's graduate
adviser before each registration. The student is required to
fulfill the special requirements of his particular degree pro-
gram in addition to the general requirements stipulated by
the Graduate School. Some specific degree requirements are
listed with the appropriate degree programs in this catalogue.
Additional degree requirements may be obtained from the
graduate adviser of each program.
Residency
In a graduate program which requires a thesis, at least 24
semester hours of credit required for the master's degree
must be earned in residence at the University of Houston.
For programs of 36 semester hours, at least 30 semester hours
must be earned in residence.
In doctoral programs, minimum residence requirements are
set by the individual department, but in no case shall the
requirement be less than one academic year of continuous
full-time residence.
38
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
Foreign Language Requirement
The Graduate School has no uniform foreign language rè-
quirement for graduate degree programs. This requirement
is determined by the appropriate college's graduate faculty.
Further information may be found in the foreign language
section under each college's degree requirements.
Application for Candidacy
The graduate student must be approved for candidacy for
his degree as early as the regulations listed below permit
and no later than the following deadlines: August 25 for fall
graduation, January 8 for spring graduation, and May 31 for
summer graduation. Any student who fails to file his can-
didacy application by the appropriate deadline will have his
application for graduation disapproved.
The master's student should file an application for admission
to candidacy with the Graduate School Office as soon as he
has satisfactorily completed at least 12 semester hours of
graduate work at this institution with a grade average of B or
better; satisfactorily completed his department's qualifying
examination, if required; and satisfactorily completed all
special requirements, if any, of his college and the department
of his major. After the Graduate School Office has verified
completion of these requirements, the student will be sent a
formal notice of admission to candidacy for the degree.
The doctoral student must also file an application for doctoral
candidacy by the preceding deadlines. Applications are avail-
able from the Graduate School Office.
Scholastic Regulations
Scholastic Average and the Four-C Rule
A minimum grade point average of 3.0 (B) over all graduate
courses attempted is required for a graduate degree; failure
to maintain this average may result in warning, probation,
or suspension.
(1) Grade points are assigned as follows: 4 for each semester
hour of A, 3 for B, 2 for C, 1 for D, and 0 for F.
(2) The grade of I (incomplete) must be changed by ful-
fillment of course requirements within 12 months of the
date awarded or it will remain an I, unless changed by
the instructor. In the case of a student enrolled in his
GRADUATE SCHOOL
39
graduating semester, a grade of I which has not been
changed by the date of graduation will have the effect
of an F, regardless of the amount of time that has
elapsed since the I grade was awarded.
(3) No credit toward a graduate degree is allowed for
courses in which grades of D or F are earned although
the grades are included in the grade point average.
(4) The cumulative grade point average and the Four-C
Rule are based upon all of the student's work taken
at the University of Houston, including courses that
are repeated, for which grade point values are assigned.
Grades of S, U, I, and W are not assigned grade point
values.
(5) The thesis or dissertation grade is not included in the
grade point average.
(6) Certain graduate courses, as specified annually by the
department, may be graded as S (satisfactory), U (un-
satisfactory), and I (incomplete). Such grades will not
be considered in computing a grade point average.
Four-C Rule. The graduate student who receives a grade of
C or lower in four courses (12 semester hours), whether or
not in repeated courses, attempted at this institution for grad-
uate credit is ineligible for any advanced degree at this
institution and will not be permitted to reenroll for graduate
study. The "Termination of Enrollment" section specifies
other regulations.
THE GENERAL INFORMATION CATALOGUE
The General Information Catalogue, which may be obtained
from the Registrar's Office, acquaints the student with the
University of Houston community. It describes in detail
the regulations and requirements that affect every student.
Answers to questions concerning housing, registration, finan-
cial obligations and aid, and student life are found in the
General Information Catalogue.
It is the student's individual responsibility to observe all
standards and regulations published in the General Informa-
tion Catalogue, the Graduate School Catalogue, and other
official publications.
40
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
THESIS OR DISSERTATION
Approval of Thesis or Dissertation Proposal
The student may not begin his research prior to admission to
candidacy without the approval of his adviser. The thesis or
dissertation must present evidence of a mastery of the litera-
ture, a significant contribution to knowledge, and the ability
to do independent research.
The approval of the thesis or dissertation proposal must be
received from the student's thesis or dissertation committee,
which is appointed by the Dean of the Graduate School upon
the advice of the appropriate department chairman or college
dean.
The final draft of the thesis or dissertation must be completed
and submitted to the advisory committee as early as stipulated
by the committee, but no later than November 1° for fall
graduation, April 2* for spring graduation, and June 28* for
summer graduation. The "Binding and Distribution of Thesis
or Dissertation" paragraph specifies deadlines for submission
of thesis or dissertation to the Graduate School Office.
Continuous Registration and Credit for Thesis or Dissertation
The student who is working on a thesis or dissertation is
required to be continuously enrolled in the appropriate thesis
or dissertation course for a minimum of six semestèr hours
per year (12 months). Advice or assistance from a member of
the faculty in the preparation of a thesis or dissertation may
not be expected unless the student is officially enrolled.
Failure to enroll in thesis or dissertation may delay the stu-
dent's graduation. Enrollment is required in the semester in
which the thesis or dissertation is completed.
A person who lives in excess of 100 miles from the University
may register in absentia for thesis or dissertation courses if
arrangements are made through the Registrar's Office at least
two weeks before the registration period. Registration for all
other students must be completed in the prescribed manner
during the announced registration period. The thesis or dis-
sertation course is considered a part of the student's current
course load.
"Thesis (or dissertation) in progress" is shown without a
grade on the student's permanent record card for each regis-
tration period until the semester or term in which it is satisfac-
torily completed. Upon completion, "thesis (or dissertation)
completed" will be shown with a grade for that semester only.
*Deadline dates in this catalogue which fall on weekends or holidays are
extended to the next working day.
GRADUATE SCHOOL
41
The Graduate School will send a copy of the "Certification
of Submission of Thesis/Dissertation Form" (showing sub-
mission of the thesis or dissertation to the Graduate School
Office) to the student's department chairman. The chairman
then reports the thesis or dissertation grade to the Registrar's
Office.
A final grade of B or better is required in the completed thesis
or dissertation. A grade of C indicates that the thesis or dis-
sertation is not acceptable. Students who are not progressing
satisfactorily may be asked to withdraw.
An optional graduate grading system of S (satisfactory), U
(unsatisfactory), or I (incomplete) may be elected by any
department for a given period, generally the academic year.
Grades in the thesis or dissertation courses, whether under
the optional or regular grading system, are not considered in
computing a student's grade point average.
For the master's thesis, six semester hours may be earned.
Although more than this number may be required of the stu-
dent, six is the maximum number of hours which may be
applied toward the master's degree. Credit allowed toward
the degree for the doctoral dissertation will be determined by
the student's major department.
An examination, oral and/or written, over the research study
will be held upon completion of the thesis or dissertation.
Suggested Form for Thesis or Dissertation
As a general rule, the format and style of presentation should
conform to the most acceptable standards of scientific and
scholarly writing in the discipline. For the instance in which
this general rule is an inadequate guide, reference should be
made to a recent edition of A Manual of Style (The University
of Chicago Press) or to Kate L. Turabian, A Manual for Writ-
ers (The University of Chicago Press). The Turabian Manual
is an abridged version of the University of Chicago Manual of
Style and may be purchased from the University of Houston
Bookstore. The title page and abstract title page must bear
the month and year of commencement. Before preparing the
thesis or dissertation, the student should obtain a copy of the
guide for the preparation and submission of theses and disser-
tations from the Graduate School.
Binding and Distribution of Thesis or Dissertation
The original and two copies of the approved thesis or dis-
sertation should be submitted to the Graduate School Office
42
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
for binding as early as possible, but not later than 4 p.m.,
December 1° for fall graduation; 4 p.m., April 25* for spring
graduation; and 4 p.m., July 26* for summer graduation.
Students who fail to meet these deadlines may be required
to refile applications for graduation for a subsequent semester.
The original and one copy of the thesis or dissertation are
retained by the Library, and one copy goes to the student's
major department. The binding fee is $6 per copy. The
Graduate School will send a copy of the "Certification of
Submission of Thesis/Dissertation Form" to the student's de-
partment chairman. The chairman then reports the thesis or
dissertation grade to the Registrar's Office.
Microfilming of Doctoral Dissertation
A microfilming fee of $20+ is required in addition to the
binding fee. This fee will provide for microfilming the com-
plete dissertation and publication of an abstract of 600 words
or less. Fee for extra pages of abstract is $3t per page.
Agreement Forms. A University Microfilms Agreement form
must be completed by the student at the time the dissertation
is presented to the Graduate School. An extra copy of the
abstract and abstract title page must be furnished for sub-
mission with the Agreement to University Microfilms.
Copyright. Ordinarily the microfilm of the dissertation will
not be copyrighted. If desired, copyright registration may be
requested as provided by the agreement form. Copyright fee
is $16.}
Publication
The published article or book should include a note indicating
that the material is, or is based upon, a thesis or dissertation
submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the
designated degree at the University of Houston.
GRADUATION
The application for graduation should not be confused with
the "application for candidacy." A graduate student must be
an approved candidate for the degree prior to the semester of
graduation before he may file an application for graduation.
*Deadline dates in this catalogue which fall on weekends or holidays are
extended to the next working day.
The University reserves the right to change without notice tuition, other
charges, and related requirements and regulations as necessitated by Univer-
sity or legislative action.
GRADUATE SCHOOL
43
Application for Graduation
Degrees are not awarded automatically upon completion of
scholastic requirements. To be considered as a candidate for
a degree, the student must submit an application for gradua-
tion to the Registrar's Office.
Although applications should be filed during the registration
period for the semester in which the student plans to graduate,
they will be accepted until October 30 for fall graduation,
March 22 for spring graduation, and June 15 for summer
graduation. Students who expect to complete their require-
ments in the second summer term and who were not enrolled
for the first summer term must submit their applications for
graduation on or before July 25.
Graduation Under a Particular Catalogue
A student normally is entitled to graduate under the degree
provisions of the catalogue in effect at the time of his first
completed semester of enrollment. The following exceptions
apply:
a. A catalogue more than ten years old shall not be used.
b. The program of the student who interrupts his enrollment
(for reasons other than involuntary military service) for
more than one calendar year shall be governed by the
catalogue in effect at the time of the student's reentrance
to the University. The student who interrupts his enroll-
ment for involuntary military service must reenroll within
one year from the date of separation from service and
no more than five years from the beginning of his military
service in order for this provision to apply. For these
purposes enrollment shall be defined as registration for
and successful completion of at least one course during
an academic term. A student forced to withdraw for
adequate cause before completion of his course may
petition for a waiver of this provision at the time of
withdrawal.
c. The program of the student who changes his major from
one college to another within the University shall be
governed by the degree requirements in effect at the
time the change of major becomes effective.
d. With the exception of programs for which another termi-
nation date has been specified, no degree shall be granted
for a graduate program not completed within five years
after it has been deleted from the catalogue.
e. The student must meet "Time Limitation" requirements,
which are described on pages 37-38.

Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.)
The program leading to the Ph.D. in Business Administration is research
oriented. It is directed toward the education of teacher-scholars who are
equipped to expand the managerial knowledge of complex organizations
which require administrative processes. The program not only focuses on
business and industrial enterprises but also encompasses government,
service, and social institutions.
Admission to the program is open to qualified holders of bachelor's
degrees from recognized colleges or universities, regardless of under-
graduate major fields of study. A personalized program is tailored to
fit the academic research and teaching interest of each candidate. The
program is planned by a Graduate Advisory Committee, selected for
each student by the Director of the Doctoral Program, in consultation
with the student.
Typically, four years of work are required for the candidate who enters
the program with a bachelor's in a nonbusiness discipline. The time
necessary to complete the program may be shortened in the case of
individuals who hold the M.B.A. Degree or its equivalent.
Curriculum:

Core: The first two years of the four-year program are designed to
provide a broad base in administrative skills equivalent to an M.B.A.
or an M.S.A. Degree. These provide the foundations for in-depth study
in the last two years.
General Examinations: Upon enrollment in the doctoral program, each
candidate meets with the Doctoral Counseling Committee, which con-
sists of a representative from each department in the College. The
committee and the candidate discuss the candidate's previous academic
and professional experience and determine the actions necessary for the
student to obtain the desired breadth of the basic core.
Major Field: Major fields are offered in accounting, behavioral man-
agement science, finance, marketing, production-logistics management,
and quantitative management science. A minimum of 18 semester hours
54
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
is required in the major field, including a maximum of six hours from
the elective sequence of a master's program. Detailed descriptions of
these majors can be obtained from the Director of the Doctoral Program,
College of Business Administration. The selection of specific courses will
be determined by the candidate and his committee. Each major field has
at least one research seminar required for students who present the field
as an area of concentration.
Supporting Field: A supporting field must be selected. It may be drawn
from a wide range of discipline areas such as anthropology, industrial
engineering, international business, mathematics, political science, psy-
chology, and sociology. The total number of hours taken in the major
and supporting fields, including the six hours of electives in the core,
must not be less than 27.
Economics: Equivalent coursework in micro- and macroeconomic theory
is required. If the six-hour equivalency is obtained from appropriate
undergraduate courses, then the candidate must take one graduate course
in economics. He may substitute, any other approved elective for the
other three hours of economics. If the candidate meets equivalency and
has taken at least one accepted graduate course in economics, then he
may substitute two approved electives in place of the economics require-
ment.
Colloquium in Business Curriculum and Learning Theory: This course
is designed to bring doctoral candidates and faculty members together
to explore emerging issues in administration and to examine the methods
by which these topics can best be introduced into curricula and the ways
the learning process can be enhanced.
Foreign Language Requirement: There is no general foreign language
requirement; however, in some cases, language training may be neces-
sary for a candidate's specific research interests.
Residency: Minimum residence requirements may vary according to
the area of interest and the individual program of study. In no case
shall this be less than one academic year of continuous residence. The
satisfaction of residency must be met while the candidate fulfills the
third and fourth year requirements of the Ph.D. program described
in the "Curriculum" section.
Field Examinations: These examinations, administered by the Graduate
Advisory Committee, are given upon the completion of the prescribed
program of course study and the establishment of proficiency in the
foreign language. They will have both oral and written parts and will
focus on the two advanced economics courses and the candidate's primary
and secondary fields of interest.
Dissertation:
1. Proposal Examination. The dissertation, for which a minimum of
12 hours of academic credit is awarded, typically requires the
equivalent of one year of academic study. The candidate is required
to submit his dissertation proposal to a Dissertation Committee for
approval. The Director of the Doctoral Program, in consultation with
the student, appoints the Dissertation Committee.
2. Oral Defense of the Dissertation. On completion of the dissertation,
each candidate is examined by his Dissertation Committee.
3. Continuous Enrollment. During the preparation of the dissertation,
a student must be enrolled continuously, with a minimum disserta-
tion load of six hours per semester while in residence, and three
hours while in absentia.

AERIAL VIEW OF CAMPUS
OBJECTIVES
The objectives of the University of Houston are:
1. to influence the student so that he may become a com-
pletely integrated person, fitted to assume appropriate
roles in society and quickened and equipped to move
toward those ends he selects;
2. to disseminate knowledge on and beyond the campus,
through teaching, open discussion, laboratory instruc-
tion, and publication;
3. to enhance the common fund of knowledge through
research, which serves as a primary means of enlarging
and verifying the body of knowledge;
4. to promote and insure the continuation of and freedom
for all of these processes;
5. to expand the areas of University excellence, while con-
tinuing to strengthen all departments.
BRIEF HISTORY
The University of Houston was established in 1927 as a com-
munity junior college to serve the young men and women of
the area. The University became a four-year institution in
1934.
The present University campus was opened in 1939 with the
dedication of the Roy Gustav Cullen Building. Separate tracts
comprising the campus were given to the University by the
heirs of the J. J. Settegast Estate and by Mr. Ben Taub, Mr.
and Mrs. Hugh Roy Cullen, and the M. D. Anderson Founda-
tion. Much of the present physical plant was contributed by
Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Roy Cullen and their family. The M. D.
Anderson Foundation provided the M. D. Anderson Memorial
Library; another principal campus structure, the Fred J.
Heyne Building, was given by Mr. and Mrs. Jesse H. Jones
through Houston Endowment, Inc. A large part of the funds
required for construction of the Lamar Fleming, Jr. Building,
which houses the Department of Chemistry and the College
of Pharmacy, was provided by the M. D. Anderson Founda-
tion, other philanthropic organizations in this area, and indi-
vidual Houstonians. A Board of Governors of leading Hous-
tonians was formed in December 1956, to include the 15
regents provided for by the legislative act of 1945. The Board,
in November 1959, voted to seek state support, preferably as
an independent unit in the state system of higher education.
Under the provisions of Senate Bill 2 of the 57th Legislature,
the University of Houston became the twentieth of the col-
leges and universities supported by the state of Texas, effec-
tive September 1, 1963, with a governing board of nine regents
appointed by the Governor.

KEY FACTS
The University of Houston is composed of the Colleges of
Architecture, Arts and Sciences, Business Administration, Edu-
cation, Optometry, Pharmacy, and Technology; the Bates Col-
lege of Law; the Cullen College of Engineering; the Graduate
School; the Clear Lake Graduate Center; the Conrad N. Hilton
School of Hotel and Restaurant Management; the Downtown
School; the Graduate School of Social Work; and the Institute
of Urban Studies.
The faculty of more than one thousand academicians have
come to the University of Houston from a wide range of the
leading educational institutions of the United States and
abroad. Scholars of established renown and those of marked
potential are increasingly attracted to the campus and to the
formidable industrial, scientific, and cultural resources of the
Houston area, The University enjoys a particular advantage in
being able to recruit part-time staff from the many profes-
sional fields represented in the community.
The 1971-72 student body numbered more than 26,000 during
each of the regular fall and spring semesters and more than
13,000 during the summer session. In the Fall Semester 1971,
a total of 26,475 enrolled at the University: 21,750 of these
were undergraduates; 3,322 were graduates; and 1,403 were
enrolled in the professional schools. A total of 5,544 freshmen
were enrolled in the Fall Semester 1971. Of the 2,765 new
freshmen who entered from high school, 84 percent graduated
in the upper half and 52 percent graduated in the upper
quartile of their classes. Ninety percent of these freshmen
graduated from public high schools.
The University assures maximum efficient use of its physical
plant by holding classes from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. throughout
the year. All instruction is under the same administration and
faculty.
UNIVERSITY FACILITIES
Accessible from all parts of the city by public transportation
and freeway systems, the 366-acre main campus of the Univer-
sity of Houston is located approximately three miles from
downtown Houston. The natural attractions of this convenient
setting are being steadily augmented by long-range planning
which emphasizes architectural harmony and appropriate
landscaping. Present facilities are being expanded further with
continued construction of new buildings.
12
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
The Ezekiel W. Cullen Building houses the Ezekiel W. Cullen
Auditorium and the administrative offices of the University,
the College of Arts and Sciences, and the Drama Department.
Adjoining the Cullen Building, the underground University
Computing Center provides facilities for the academic, ad-
ministrative, and research computing requirements of the
University. The Center houses one of the most sophisticated
large-scale digital computers currently in existence.
The College of Business Administration occupies the major
portion of the Fred J. Heyne Building and a full floor of the
Graduate Studies Building. The Department of Anthropology
also is allocated space in the Heyne Building. The Roy Gustav
Cullen Building, the first permanent building constructed on
the campus, is devoted entirely to the Department of English
and contains many general-purpose classrooms for instruction
in English. The Science Building contains the Department of
Biology. The Department of Chemistry and the College of
Pharmacy, which share the Lamar Fleming, Jr. Building, also
have additional space in the Science and Research Building.
Separate buildings provide quarters for the College of Archi-
tecture, the College of Optometry, and the Departments of
Art, Speech, and Communications. The College of Technology
occupies the Technology Building. The Isabel C. Cameron
Building along with the Home Management House provide
facilities for the Department of Home Economics and the
Laboratory Nursery School.
The University Center provides space for the bookstore, food
service facilities, meeting rooms, and offices for campus or-
ganizations. Specialty areas in the Center include a post office,
barber shop, games area, and crafts shop. An outstanding part
of the building is the Arbor, which is a favorite gathering place
of students and features a large, covered space of unusual
design and concept.
Enlarged by the addition of an eight-story tower, the M. D.
Anderson Memorial Library Building contains the central
University library collections, including a new Rare Book
Room. The building, which is topped by a 163-bell electronic
carillon, also houses the Audio-Visual Center and the Depart-
ment of Computer Science.
The seven-story Agnes Arnold Hall contains four floors of
classrooms and three floors of offices for the Foreign Lan-
guage Departments along with the Geography, History,
Mathematics, Philosophy, Political Science, and Sociology
Departments. Built in conjunction with the Hall are two
auditoria, which seat 592 and 434 persons respectively and
which provide large lecture facilities for instructional pur-
poses. Accoustical capabilities of the auditoria allow the
GENERAL INFORMATION
13
performance of a wide range of musical programs under
particularly favorable conditions.
The Cullen College of Engineering Building brings together
all the offices and the major portion of laboratories for all
departments in the College. A major feature of the building,
in addition to the latest in research facilities, is an Anechoic
Chamber which is designed for highly advanced experimenta-
tion in sound technology.
The Science and Research Building houses the Departments
of Biophysical Sciences, Physics, Geology, Psychology, and
Electrical-Electronics Technology in its eight floors. The Bates
College of Law Building features an underground reference
library that will serve a surrounding and interrelated cluster
of law schools. Administrative offices are located in Krost
Hall; classrooms, in the Bates Teaching Unit. The Student Life
Building houses the Alumni Federation; the Office of the Vice
President, Dean of Students; Counseling and Testing; and
Placement. Adjacent to the Student Life Building is the one-
story University Health Center.
Physical Education, Military Science, and Athletics now are
housed completely in new facilities. Offices, classrooms, locker
rooms, men's and women's gymnasiums, an indoor swimming
pool, air-conditioned handball courts, a 10,000-seat field house,
playing fields, and permanent tennis courts are located within
this complex. The Hofheinz Pavilion, in addition to providing
superb athletic facilities, accommodates commencements, con-
vocations, registration, and other large group events.
The $10.7-million Moody Towers, a dormitory complex with
two 17-story towers, a Commons Building, and related facili-
ties, has been completed in the southeast portion of the cam-
pus. This facility provides housing for 1,234 students.
In keeping with the campus plan to allow for construction of
new educational buildings in the area, the Physical Plant's
maintenance and office buildings were relocated on a site
north of Elgin Street on the campus. Occupants of the General
Services Building are Traffic and Security, Physical Plant,
Printing Plant, Mail Room, the Department of Facilities
Planning and Construction, General Stores, Property Manage-
ment, and Office of the Vice President, Facilities Planning and
Operations.
Recently completed, the distinctively different College of Edu-
cation and Classroom Building houses all aspects of the
teacher education program except the Department of Health
and Physical Education. The open-concept use of space and
emphasis on educational technology are unique features of
this facility.
14
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
NEW COLLEGE OF EDUCATION BUILDING FEATURES OPEN-CONCEPT USE OF SPACE
The Graduate Studies Building, directly west of the College
of Education, provides quarters for the Graduate School of
Social Work, the Office of Research, Urban Studies, the Grad-
uate School, the Economics Department, and portions of Busi-
ness Administration. The area surrounding these buildings is
being redesigned to create a handsomely landscaped academic
quadrangle with appropriate sculpture.
The $5-million Fine Arts Center, scheduled for completion
by the fall of 1972, will provide space for the School of Music
and the Department of Art and will include the Sarah
Campbell Blaffer Gallery and the Fredrica Gross Dudley
Recital Hall.
A Continuing Education Center is being erected between
Moody Towers and the University Center. This Center will
eventually replace the Downtown School facilities and will
provide quarters for the Conrad N. Hilton School of Hotel
and Restaurant Management. Food service, conference rooms,
and an 80-room hotel also will be provided.
The Clear Lake Graduate Center, which houses graduate
activities for various colleges, has been constructed near the
Manned Spacecraft Center at Clear Lake City approximately
18 miles southeast of the main campus. Research facilities are
available at a unique 1603-acre site nearby. The Center offers
graduate instruction primarily to the NASA Manned Space-
GENERAL INFORMATION
15
craft Center and supporting industries, nearby school systems,
and other governmental units.
Among the special facilities of the University is its educational
television station, KUHT-TV, which was the first ETV station
established within. the United States. Now operating in full
color with maximum power over an 80-mile radius, the station
offers expanded services for a potential 2,200,000 viewers; in
the past year, its audience increased by 49 percent. The Man-
agement Development Center, with excellently designed
facilities in the Fred J.- Heyne Building, is one of a number
of University of Houston agencies offering valuable training
and services to the community and state. Other such agencies
include the Center for Research in Business and Economics,
the Center for Human Resources, the Bureau of Education
Research and Services, and the Public Affairs Research Cen-
ter. The University also is the site of many important training
institutes.

although not required, are strongly recommended. Students
who have studied chemistry or a modern foreign language and
who plan to continue study in these areas at the University
should take the Achievement Tests in these subjects.
4. Health Examination
All new students must file a medical history and health exam-
ination, completed by a legally qualified physician, with the
University Health Service prior to their first enrollment at
the University of Houston. If possible, this examination should
be made by the student's family physician, who often has
valuable health information which should be part of the
student's record. Only students classified as "summer tran-
sients" are exempt from the health examination requirement.
Health and accident insurance coverage is required for stu-
dents living in residence halls and for international students.
Questions about the health examination should be directed to
the University Health Center, University of Houston.
5. Housing
Application should be made to the Director of Housing as far
in advance of enrollment as possible for residence hall reserva-
tions.
GENERAL INFORMATION
23
The receipt of an assignment in the residence halls does not
in any way imply admission to the University. Admission to
the University can be accomplished only through the Office
of Admissions.
SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION
Applicants of good moral character may be considered for
admission to the undergraduate divisions (1) by graduation
from an accredited high school, (2) as a college transfer stu-
dent, or (3) by entrance examination.
1. Admission by High School Graduation
An applicant who has never attended college may be con-
sidered for admission if he has been graduated from an
accredited high school and has an acceptable total score on
the College Entrance Examination Board Scholastic Aptitude
Test in relation to his rank in class. The total score is the sum
of the verbal and mathematical scores.
Rank in High School
Minimum Total Score
Graduating Class
for Admission
Highest Quarter
700
Second Quarter
800
Third Quarter
900
Lowest Quarter
1000
Students who meet these requirements may reasonably expect
to be admitted if they apply by the admissions deadline.
Standards may be higher for certain programs, and where
facilities and other factors permit, requirements may be
modified.
The College of Architecture requires a minimum total score of
900 on the Scholastic Aptitude Test for students ranking in
the highest or second quarter of the graduating class and 1100
for those in the third quarter. Students in the lowest quarter
are not admissible. Applicants are requested to take the
Architectural School Aptitude Test prior to being considered
for admission. This test is offered through the Educational
Testing Service, Princeton, New Jersey 08540. Because of
limited facilities, the College of Architecture cannot accept
all qualified applicants; students with the highest qualifica-
tions are given preference. Applications for admission to the
College will not be accepted after April 3. Admission decisions
will be made after this date, and applicants will be notified
after May 1.
24
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
Recommended High School Preparation
The number and nature of high school units suggested for
admission are as follows:
Subject
Units
English
Four
Mathematics: Algebra, Geometry,
Trigonometry, and Advanced
Mathematics
Three or more
One Foreign Language
Two or more
Natural Science
Two or more
Social Science
Two or more
Although these are not specific unit requirements, the Univer-
sity expects each applicant to be thoroughly prepared for con-
tinued academic work at a higher level. The University's rec-
ommendation is based on the fact that applicants with strong
academic backgrounds usually are more successful in college.
Applicants to the Cullen College of Engineering are expected
to have completed one unit each of physics and chemistry;
four units of mathematics, including two units of algebra,
one of geometry, one half of trigonometry, and one half of
either elementary analysis or analytical geometry; one unit of
mechanical drawing in the tenth, eleventh, or twelfth grade;
and four units of English. The College also strongly recom-
mends that the American history, English, and chemistry
achievement tests of the College Entrance Examination Board
be taken.
The University of Houston does not recognize General Educa-
tion Development (G.E.D.) Tests as the equivalent of high
school graduation. Applicants who are not high school grad-
uates may apply for admission by fulfilling the requirements
described in the section on "Admission by Examination."
2. Admission by College Transfer
The student transferring from another college must have com-
pleted, whether passed or failed, a minimum of 15 semester
hours in residence and must have an average of C (2.0) or
above on all college work attempted. All grades, including
those earned in repeated courses, will be used in computing
the grade average.
A student who has attempted fewer than 15 semester hours of
college work, whether passed or failed, will be considered for
admission on the basis of his high school record and scores
earned on the SAT of the College Entrance Examination
Board. In this case, both college and high school transcripts
are required. The student who is attending, or has attended,
GENERAL INFORMATION
25
another institution must have complete and official transcripts
of all academic work submitted directly from each college
attended.
A student will not be considered for admission if he is not
eligible to return immediately to his former institution (s).
An applicant to the College of Architecture must have at least
a 2.5 average over all his previous work, in addition to meet-
ing the regular admission requirements for transfer students.
Applications for admission to the College will not be accepted
after April 3. Admission decisions will be made after this date,
and applicants will be notified after May 1.
Summer Transient Student
An undergraduate student in good standing at another college
or university may be considered for admission as a Summer
Transient Student during the summer only. An application for
admission must be on file by May 7 for the first summer term
or by June 18 for the second summer term. The completed
application will be the basis upon which admission as a Sum-
mer Transient Student will be determined. Transcripts will
not be required unless a student wishes to change his status
to that of a regular student. A student will not be admissible if
he is ineligible to return immediately to his former institu-
tion(s).
Once admitted as a Summer Transient Student, a student may
enroll in future summer sessions without filing a new applica-
tion for admission, but will not be permitted to enroll in a
fall or spring semester unless he changes his status to that of
a regular student. This may be done by filing a petition with
the Office of Admissions, by submitting transcripts of all
previous college work, and by meeting the regular admission
requirements. Grades earned as a Summer Transient Student
will be included in determining a student's overall grade point
average for admission as a regular student. Appropriate credits
earned as a Summer Transient Student will not be applied
toward a degree at the University of Houston until regular
admission has been granted.
3. Admission by Examination
An applicant who has not graduated from an accredited high
school and who is at least 21 years old may be considered for
admission in one of two ways:
1. By having a minimum score of 1000 (the sum of the
verbal and mathematical scores) on the College En-
trance Examination Board Scholastic Aptitude Test. (The
26
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
section entitled "Required Admission Test" offers further
information concerning this test.)
2. By having a minimum total score of 2250 on the five
tests of the College Level Examination Program (CLEP)
General Examination.
In addition, the Director of Admissions may request the ap-
plicant to submit a copy of his birth certificate and a transcript
of high school work completed.
READMISSION OF FORMER STUDENTS
A former student of the University of Houston who has com-
pleted a registration for credit at the main campus since or
including the fall semester 1950, or at the Downtown School
since or including the fall semester 1960, is not required to
file a new application for admission. A student who last at-
tended the University before those dates is considered a "new"
student for registration purposes and must file an application
for admission.
A former student must submit transcripts from all colleges
attended since his last enrollment at the University of Hous-
ton for review according to University standards for readmis-
sion. A student who is not eligible to return immediately to his
former institution (s) will not be considered for readmission.
If the student has earned less than a C (2.0) average over all
work completed since his attendance at the University of
Houston, or if he left his last institution on probation, he may
be readmitted to the University on probation. The University
reserves the right to deny readmission to any student or to
admit a student on probation.
TRANSFER OF COLLEGE CREDITS
The application of transfer credit toward a degree at this
University cannot be determined until the transcript has been
evaluated and a degree plan made. Evaluations of transfer
work are made in the Office of Admissions usually after stu-
dents are enrolled and complete transfer records are on file.
Degree plans are made in the college of the student's major.
The following regulations apply generally to the undergrad-
uate programs. Certain exceptions exist in the Bates College
of Law and are explained in the catalogue of that college.
General Regulations
1. The college from which credit is to be transferred must
be accredited.
GENERAL INFORMATION
27
2. Courses transfer to the University of Houston on the same
level and with the corresponding number of hours as
earned at another institution. Grades are never lowered
in transfer. Semester hours in which grades of "D" have
been earned in college-level courses may be accepted if
offset by grades of "B" or better.
3. When a course has been repeated for credit, the last
grade and hours will be accepted in transfer.
4. Courses taken at other colleges that do not correspond to
courses offered by the University may transfer as elec-
tive credit.
5. The following courses are not accepted by the University
in transfer.
a. Vocational courses.
b. Terminal, orientation, remedial English, or remedial
reading courses.
C. High school level mathematics or intermediate alge-
bra courses.
d. Courses in bookkeeping.
e. General Education Development Tests on high school
or college level.
6. Courses in technology will be considered for transfer
credit on an individual basis, depending on the student's
major and the type of course to be transferred.
7. No credit is granted for military service training schools;
however, such training may be used in support of a peti-
tion by the student for advanced standing examinations.
8. A maximum of 12 semester hours in religion is accepted
toward a degree.
9. To earn a degree at the University of Houston, the last
30 semester hours must be completed in residence. Only
grade points earned at the University of Houston are
averaged for the degree.
10. The dean of the college of the student's major will make
the final decision concerning the way transfer credit is
applied to the degree program.
Junior College Credit
Once a student has earned 66 semester hours (either at the
University of Houston, a junior college, or a senior college;
or any combination of these), he may not transfer any addi-
28
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
tional hours from a junior college. However, after a student
has earned this amount of credit and has also earned a mini-
mum of six semester hours at the University, he may petition
to take as much as six additional hours at a junior college and
transfer the credit to the University.
Petitions can be obtained in the Office of Admissions, and
they must be approved by the Assistant Director of Admissions
prior to enrollment at the junior college. Courses taken at a
junior college cannot transfer as advanced hours.
Correspondence and Extension Credit
The University of Houston does not offer correspondence
courses. A student may apply toward a bachelor's degree a
maximum of 18 semester hours of correspondence credit, 30
semester hours of extension (classroom) credit, or 30 semester
hours of correspondence and extension credit combined. Only
six semester hours in the major may be correspondence credit.
Military Service Training Schools
No credit is granted for military service training schools.
Under the regulations governing advanced standing examina-
tions, a student may petition for credit by examination in
courses equivalent to those offered by the University. A maxi-
mum of 18 semester hours of credit in college-level United
States Armed Forces Institute courses may be accepted in
transfer if a grade of "satisfactory" is earned.
Undergraduate Credit for Professional Courses
Graduates of accredited schools of medicine and other schools
of professional nature are allowed a total of 30 semester
hours of unspecified credit for the two or three years of pro-
fessional training. A maximum of 12 semester hours credit
will be allowed to those students who are not graduates. Stu-
dents who complete satisfactorily a program in medical tech-
nology which is approved by the Board of Registry of Clinical
Pathologists will be allowed 30 semester hours of unspecified
credit.

UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
COOPERATIVE EDUCATION PROGRAM
The University-Industry Cooperative Education Program is
a work/study plan available to undergraduate students major-
ing in elementary education, engineering, technology, biology,
chemistry, home economics, mathematics, or physics. Other
areas of study will be added as necessary.
Work periods may provide significant earnings, but the pri-
mary objective of the program is to supplement classroom
theory with practical on-the-job experience.
Students in the program spend the first year at the University.
In the subsequent three years, including summer sessions,
a co-op pair of students covers a job full time in business,
industry, government, or education by alternating each semes-
ter on the job or in school.
Students may apply to enter the program after they have been
accepted for admission to the University, but final acceptance
is based on completion of freshman requirements with satisfac-
tory grades and acceptability of the student to an employer.
Transfer students may participate after one semester of resi-
dence. Additional information may be obtained from the
Director of Cooperative Education, University of Houston.
TYPES OF HONORS STUDY
Several types of honors study at the University provide special
opportunities for gifted undergraduate students to develop
their intellectual interests and abilities.
The four-year University Honors Program is open to all
qualified undergraduate students in every college of the Uni-
versity. A student normally can fulfill the requirements of the
program while he completes the degree requirements of his
major or college. The program does not replace the require-
ments of an academic major or the degree requirements of
a college; it is designed to broaden and deepen the academic
life of its students while they earn their undergraduate de-
grees. Consequently, it does not impose requirements that
increase the number of credit hours required for a degree.
The Honors Program does encourage a broad, liberal educa-
tion, whatever a student's area of special interest. Students
who complete the requirements of the Honors Program re-
ceive at graduation a special Honors degree.
In addition to the four-year Honors Program, there are two
other types of honors study available at the University of
Houston:
GENERAL INFORMATION
33
Enrollment in Òpen Honors Courses: Qualified students
who are not members of the Honors Program may enroll
in open honors sections which are marked "H" in the
University's Class Schedule.
Senior Honors Thesis: Any student who does well in his
major subject may elect to write a Senior Honors Thesis.
Further information on all types of honors study and applica-
tion forms for admission to the four-year Honors Program
may be obtained from the Director, University Honors
Program.
THE INTERNATIONAL STUDENT
An applicant who is not a citizen of the United States may be
admitted to the University under the following regulations in
addition to the general admission requirements which must
be fulfilled by all applicants. Information on Graduate School
Admission requirements may be found in the Graduate
School Catalogue. All inquiries and documents should be ad-
dressed to the International Student Admissions Office, Uni-
versity of Houston.
Only the international student who has attended a U.S. high
school is required to submit scores on the College Entrance
Examination Board Scholastic Aptitude Test as part of his
credentials for admission. The International Student Admis-
sions Office may, however, specifically request these scores
from a student who has not attended a U.S. high school.
Additional information may be found in "Advising for Inter-
national Students" in this catalogue.
1. An applicant must have earned a minimum grade point average of
2.3 (C = 2.0) on all secondary school work attempted. An under-
graduate student transferring from a foreign university must have
a grade point average of at least 2.3 on all college work attempted.
An undergraduate student transferring from a university within
the United States may be considered for admission if he has
earned a grade point average of 2.0 (C) or above on all work
attempted. These requirements are higher in the Colleges of
Architecture and Optometry, Bates College of Law, and the
Graduate School. Other departments and colleges also may have
higher requirements.
2. Two copies of official transcripts of all secondary school and any
college or university work attempted should be received by the
International Student Admissions Office at least three months
in advance of the semester in which enrollment is sought. An
official translation of the transcripts must be included if the
transcripts are in a foreign language.
Definition of Terms. Graduation from a secondary school gen-
erally implies completion of 12 years of education. Graduation
from a college or university generally implies completion of 16
years of education.
34
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
3. The applicant must have a signed statement guaranteeing his
ability to pay all expenses while a student at the University.
This statement is included in the application-brochure packet
and may be signed by a parent or guardian, a bank or other
reliable financial institution, or a U.S. citizen who will accept
responsibility for the student's financial needs.
4. The applicant must submit two passport-sized photographs before
enrollment.
5. The above items must be on file in the International Student Ad-
missions Office by the following dates: June 1 for the Fall
Semester; November 1 for the Spring Semester; April 1 for the
Summer Session.
6. Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) scores must
be submitted and passed with a satisfactory score before
admission will be granted. Students from Australia, the British
Isles, Canada, and New Zealand; U.S. high school graduates;
U.S. college graduates with Bachelor's or Master's Degrees;
and students who have completed the University of Houston's
English requirements at a U.S. college are not required to submit
TOEFL scores. Students who have been admitted, regardless of
classification, must take a second English test upon arrival at
the University. On the basis of these scores, students are placed
in the appropriate English and speech course for international
students. Students whose scores are low will be advised to carry
a reduced course load. Information concerning TOEFL may be
obtained from the Educational Testing Service, Box 955,
Princeton, N. J. 08549, U.S.A.
7. It is compulsory for international students to carry hospitalization
insurance.
8. The Director of the International Student Admissions Office or
the Dean of the Graduate School may issue an official notification
of acceptance for admission.
9. Visas issued for the purpose of study do not normally carry em-
ployment privileges. Government regulations require the interna-
tional student to certify that he has finances deemed sufficient
by the University to pursue a full course of study without em-
ployment.
10. Holders of student (F-1) visas must enroll for a full load of day
courses. For international students, the minimum full course load
is 12 semester hours for undergraduates and nine semester hours
for graduate students.
11. All new international students are required to attend Orientation.

PERIOD OF REGISTRATION
The computer-aided registration system is designed to
simplify and to improve the process of registration. For the
student's convenience, several registration periods are held
for each semester and summer term. Specific dates and de-
tailed instructions for each registration cycle are included in
the Class Schedule. All steps of registration, including com-
pletion of the published registration procedures and payment
of tuition and fees, must be accomplished before classes begin.
In extraordinary circumstances, special approval to register
after the beginning of the semester or term may be granted
by the Registrar upon recommendation of the major college
dean.
CANCELLATION OF REGISTRATION
A student may cancel his registration after payment through
the Registrar's Office without financial penalty if he does so
before the first day of class. The student is entitled to full
refund and is regarded as never having registered.
CLASS SCHEDULE
A Class Schedule, listing courses which will be offered for the
semester, may be obtained well in advance of the beginning
of the semester from the Registrar's Office, Room 131 of the
Ezekiel W. Cullen Building. The Class Schedule also includes
detailed registration procedures.
CLASS MEMBERSHIP
A student may not attend a class after the first week of classes
unless he is properly registered for that course and section.
Failure to follow proper registration procedures may jeopar-
dize the student's good standing at the University and result
in a loss of credit. Instructors' class rolls are made up only
from the official enrollment records of the Registrar. A stu-
dent whose name is not on the class roll in each of his classes
should contact the Registrar's Office, Room 131 of the Ezekiel
W. Cullen Building, to verify his proper registration.
DISCONTINUED CLASSES
The University reserves the right, when necessary, to discon-
tinue classes or to alter the schedule otherwise. If a class is
discontinued, students will be notified at the first scheduled
class meeting, whenever possible, so that they may register
for alternate courses. A student who is enrolled in a discon-
tinued class must officially drop the course; if he wishes to
enroll in another section, he must immediately and officially
drop and add.
GENERAL INFORMATION
37
SECTION CHANGES
A student may make section changes, such as dropping-and-
adding a course or section of a course, after he has completed
registration by filling out and processing the required forms.
These forms may be obtained in the Hofheinz Pavilion during
the published times for section changes. Changes should be
made during the periods prescribed in the Class Schedule.
GRADUATING SENIORS
A student who plans to graduate at the end of the semester
for which he is registering should check the Class Schedule
for dates to apply for graduation. The student must make
application for graduation before the deadline indicated for
each semester in the Academic Calendar.

TUITION AND FEES
All required tuition, fees, and deposits are due in full at the
time of registration. A student is not registered until full
payment is made. Payment may be made in cash or by check
or money order payable to the University of Houston.
The University reserves the right to change without notice
tuition, other charges, and related requirements and regula-
tions as necessitated by University or legislative action.
Tuition, the student services fee, and the building use fee are
required of all students. A "Schedule of Charges" on page 43
gives a breakdown of these expenses per semester hour. Addi-
tional fees which are applied on a selective basis include the
parking fee, laboratory fees, health and physical education
fees, and miscellaneous special fees.
Tuition
House Bill No. 43 of the Texas Legislature requires the Uni-
versity of Houston to collect tuition from students at the
following rates:
1. Tuition for resident students is $4 per semester credit
hour, but the total of such charge will not be less than
$50 per semester.
2. Tuition for nonresident students who are citizens of any
country other than the United States is $14 per semester
credit hour, but the total of such charge will not be less
than $200 per semester.
3. Tuition for nonresident students who are citizens of the
United States is $40 per semester credit hour. Any citizen
of the United States who was classified a nonresident
student and who was enrolled for the Spring Semester
1971 at the University of Houston may continue to enroll
at the University of Houston at the same tuition rate
that was in effect at the time of his original enrollment
until one of the following conditions occurs:
a. He receives the degree at the degree level toward which
he was working during the Spring Semester 1971; or
b. he voluntarily withdraws from the University of Hous-
ton or the University involuntarily withdraws the stu-
dent for disciplinary reasons or for failing to meet the
academic standards of the University; or
c. the termination of the Spring Semester 1975.

Student Services Fee
A student services fee, as authorized by state law, is charged
to every student. During the summer, the student services fee
is $2 each 6-week term or $4 for a 12-week session. In no case
shall the amount charged each student exceed $4 for the sum-
mer session.
If the student pays the student services fee for 12 or more
hours in the fall and spring semesters, he is entitled to a copy
of the yearbook, The Houstonian. If, in the fall and spring
semesters, the student pays less than the $23 fee for 12 or
more hours, this benefit is not included. Students taking less
than 12 hours may elect to pay the full student services fee in
order to be eligible for this benefit.
Building Use Fees
The Board of Regents has levied special compulsory building
use fees to be charged each student in order to retire revenue
bonds issued for construction of additional facilities.
Additional Fees
Parking Fee
A parking fee of $10 for each semester, $5 for each six-week
summer term, and $10 for a twelve-week summer session will
be assessed each student who operates a motor vehicle on the
campus or on properties leased by the University. If a student
has two vehicles to be registered, he must present the title of
each vehicle, and a fee of $2 will be charged for the second
registration. A maximum of two vehicles may be registered
at a time during a semester.
Any vehicle not having a valid University of Houston decal
will be issued a City of Houston citation unless arrangements
have been made with Traffic and Security to park on campus
in lieu of such decal.
Lost or stolen decals may be replaced for $1. A change of
vehicle registration may be accomplished free of charge when
the remnants of the original decal are presented in the Traffic
and Security Office.

ROOM AND BOARD
On-campus room and board rates for the academic year
are: Quadrangle, $982.00 to $1,072.00; Towers, $1,142.00 to
$1,202.00. These rates do not include state and city taxes on
board or the student activity fee. Payments may be paid in full
or in installments, with an initial payment of $232.00 due not
later than July 10 for the full academic year. Further informa-
tion may be obtained from the Director of Housing, 4361
Wheeler, Houston, Texas 77004.
POLICY ON FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
Students are to meet financial responsibilities to the Univer-
sity. The writing of checks on accounts with insufficient funds
and failure to meet all financial obligations are considered
a lack of financial responsibility.
Students who write two (2) bad checks (unless due to bank
error) to the University for tuition and fees, to the University
offices for payment of other University obligations, or for
check cashing purposes, forfeit check writing and cashing
privileges for the balance of the academic year.
In addition, a student who has given the University a bad
check (unless due to bank error), will be assessed a $2 ser-
vice charge. If the check was presented in payment of tuition
and fees at registration time, the return of the check will
also result in a $5 late registration fee.
In addition to the above action, a student who does not meet
financial responsibilities to the University is subject to being
withdrawn from the University and may be subject to action
by the University Student Court and/or be referred to law
enforcement authorities of the Credit Bureau.
No degree shall be conferred on a student or former student
until financial obligations to the University have been met.
A statement of credits or transcripts shall not be given to or
on behalf of a student who is in default on any payment due
to the University.
44
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
AUDITING
Approval to audit, or visit, a course is sometimes granted to
qualified persons by the dean of the college in which the
course is offered. Such approval conveys only the privilege
of observing and does not include submitting papers, taking
tests, or participating in laboratories or field work.
The student auditing courses will pay the regular tuition and
student services fee, and all other applicable fees as set forth
in this catalogue.
Audit application forms may be obtained from the office of
the college dean. An auditor may register only after late
registration.
Credit is not given for an audited course, nor may a change
to credit status be made after the student has registered to
audit a course.
REFUND REGULATIONS
A student may cancel his registration without financial penalty
if he does so before the first day of class. After classes begin,
tuition, the student services fee, and the building use fees
may be refunded in part to students who officially withdraw
from the University.
In no case shall any refund be made for dropped courses or
for transfer to courses which offer fewer hours of credit. No
refund shall be made if the student remains enrolled in the
University.
The student who officially withdraws may be eligible for a
refund of tuition and the specified fees, based upon the
courses in which he is enrolled on the official date of with-
drawal. Refunds are made in accordance with the following
schedule:
Fall and Spring Semesters
On or before the 14th class day

HAZLEWOOD ACT
State law provides that a legal resident of Texas is to be
exempted from certain required fees but not from deposits
when he meets all the following criteria:
1. He has resided in Texas for a period of not less than
12 months prior to the date of registration.
2. He served in the armed forces in World War I, World
War II, the Korean conflict, or in certain auxiliary
services.
3. He was a bona fide legal resident of the state at the
time of entering such service.
4. He was honorably discharged therefrom (except those
who were discharged because of being over the age of
38 or because of a personal request).
5. He is not eligible for education benefits provided for
veterans by the United States government.
To obtain this exemption, the veteran should submit his ap-
plication with attached evidence to the Office of the Cashier
at least six to eight weeks before he expects to register at the
University. Every applicant claiming the benefit of this ex-
emption must submit satisfactory evidence that he is a legal
resident of Texas and was a bona fide legal resident of Texas
at the time of entering such service and is otherwise entitled
to the exemption. Until such proof has been accepted by the
Office of the Cashier and the entitlement established, the
student will pay all required fees from his own funds.
Benefits for children of Texas veterans. Exemption from pay-
ment of certain fees also extends to children of members of
of the armed forces who were killed in action or died while in
46
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
the service in World War II or in the Korean conflict. For
procedure to follow under this provision, contact the Office
of the Cashier.
The student must pay all fees at the time of registration and
apply for refund when his entitlement is established unless
his application has been processed and approved in the Office
of the Cashier by the applicable date:
July 1 for the Fall Semester 1972
December 1 for the Spring Semester 1973
April 1 for the First Six-Week Term or Twelve-Week
Summer Session 1973
June 1 for the Second Six-Week Summer Term 1973
SCHOLARSHIPS AND FINANCIAL AID
To be eligible for financial assistance at the University of
Houston, a student must have been accepted for admission.
Although the University of Houston constantly seeks addi-
tional support for student scholarships and loans and places
financial assistance to deserving students among its highest
priority needs, funds are limited. Each year, the Office of
Scholarships and Financial Aid receives more applications
than can be approved. The University believes that students
and their families must realistically assume a major respon-
sibility for tuition, fees, and living expenses although every
attempt is made to provide all possible assistance for qualified
applicants.
Students who seek financial assistance must file a general ap-
plication with the Office of Scholarships and Financial Aid
and must submit a Parents' Confidential Statement to the
College Scholarship Service (CSS). Married and/or inde-
pendent students must submit the Student's Confidential
Statement to College Scholarship Service. Incoming freshmen
can obtain College Scholarship Service application forms
from their high school counselors. All other applicants can
obtain the CSS forms by writing to the Office of Scholarships
and Financial Aid, University of Houston, Houston, Texas
77004.
Financial assistance is awarded in the form of scholarships,
grants, loans, and jobs. Because scholarship funds are ex-
tremely limited, applications from many deserving students
must be rejected. Students entering the University should
explore the availability of scholarships offered by their home-
town civic, service, and fraternal organizations.
GENERAL INFORMATION
47
The University attempts to meet a student's "financial need"
through a "package" program, usually consisting of a long-
term low interest federal or state loan, grant, and/or job. If
he maintains a "B" average during his first year at the Uni-
versity, the student's chances for a scholarship during his
remaining years are somewhat greater.
Departmental scholarships are available in some academic
areas. A student interested in applying for departmental
awards should contact the chairman of the department con-
cerned. A graduate student seeking scholarships, assistant-
ships, or teaching fellowships should apply to the chairman of
the department of his major subject and should also consult
the Financial Aid section of the Graduate School Catalogue.
Early application is important. The deadline for undergradu-
ate scholarship applications is March 1 for the academic year
beginning the following fall. Scholarships are for one year
only. Students must submit renewal applications and finan-
cial statements for each academic year to be considered in
competition with all other applicants.
Students are encouraged to apply prior to March 1 for the
year beginning the following fall in order that notification
may be made as early as possible. Loans, grants, and work-
study jobs are awarded on the basis of financial need, with
priority given to those applications received earliest.
Contributions are made to the University from charitable and
educational foundations, social and professional clubs and
organizations, businessmen, government, and alumni. Although
the general application for financial aid automatically qualifies
him for consideration for all programs, an applicant may be
asked to complete additional applications for certain programs
after his eligibility has been determined by the financial aid
analyst.
The University participates in the following programs of finan-
cial assistance to students:
College Work-Study
Cuban Loans
Educational Opportunity Grants
Federal Insured Loans
Health Profession Loans (Optometry)
Health Profession Loans (Pharmacy)
Health Profession Scholarships (Optometry)
Health Profession Scholarships (Pharmacy)
Hinson-Hazlewood (TOP) Loans
Law Enforcement Education (Loans and Grants)
National Defense Student Loans
(includes required Loyalty Oath)
Special Scholarship Programs
48
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
Á former student of the University who has established á
good academic and financial record may also apply for an
emergency loan from University funds. To be eligible, the
freshman or sophomore must have completed at least 24
semester hours at the University of Houston; and upper-
classmen, professional, and graduate students, 12 semester
hours. Normally, these short-term loans are made for a
period of from one to three months, depending upon the
amount borrowed. Long-term loans are made to upperclass-
men, usually graduating seniors, and are subject to repayment
during the summer or within one or two years after graduation.
Interested applicants should contact the Office of Scholarships
and Financial Aid for further details. Students or prospective
students are encouraged to visit this office for consultation on
their financial situations.
RESIDENCE STATUS
The following information is reprinted from Rules and
Regulations for Determining Residence Status, published by
the Coordinating Board, Texas College and University Sys-
tem, and pursuant to Title 3, Texas Education Code:
I. MINORS
Statute: Section 54.052(b) An individual, under twenty-one (21) years of age,
who living away from his family, and whose family resides in another
state or has not resided in Texas for the 12-month period immediately
preceding the date of registration shall be classified as a nonresident
student;
Section 54.052(c) An individual twenty-one (21) years of age or under
whose family has not resided in Texas for the 12-month period im-
mediately preceding the date of registration shall be classified as a non-
resident student regardless of whether he has become the legal ward of
residents of Texas or has been adopted by residents of Texas while he is
attending an educational institution in Texas, or within a 12-month period
before his attendance, or under circumstances indicating that the guard-
ianship or adoption was for the purpose of obtaining status as a resident
student.
Section 54.055 An individual twenty-one (21) years of age or under whose
parents were formerly residents of Texas is entitled to pay the resident
tuition fee following the parents' change of legal residence to another
state, as long as the individual remains continuously enrolled in a regular
session in a state-supported institution of higher education.
A. Death or Divorce of Parents
The legal residence of a minor under 21 years of age is usually that
of the father. Upon the death of the father, the legal residence of
the minor is that of the mother. Upon divorce or legal separation of
the parents, the residence of the minor is determined by the resi-
GENERAL INFORMATION
49
dence of the parent with whom the minor is making his home at
the time of registration.
B. Custody by Court Order
If the custody of the minor has been granted by court order (e.g.,
divorce decree, child custody action, guardianship or adoption pro-
ceedings) to some person other than the parent, the residence of
that person shall control; provided, however, that such grant of
custody was not ordered during or within a year prior to the
minor's enrollment in an institution of higher education (defined as
any public junior college, public senior college or university, medi-
cal or dental unit or other agency of higher education) and was
granted under circumstances indicating that such guardianship was
not for the purpose of obtaining status as a resident student.
If the minor is not making his home with either parent, and there is
no court-appointed guardian, the residence of the parent with
whom the minor last resided shall be presumed to control. If, how-
ever, the minor has made his home with, and has been dependent
upon a grandparent for more than a year prior to enrollment in an
institution of higher education, the residence of that natural guard-
ian shall be regarded as his residence. The residence of a person
other than a parent or a natural or legal guardian, who may furnish
funds for payment of tuition, fees, or living expenses shall in no
way affect the residence classification of a minor.
C. Abandoned Child
In the case of an abandoned child, the residence of a person who
has stood in loco parentis for a period of time may determine the
residence of such abandoned child. The fact of abandonment must
be clearly established and must not have been for the purpose of
affecting the residence of the minor, and the minor must have
actually resided in the home of such person for two years im-
mediately prior to registering in an institution of higher education
in Texas and must have received substantially all of his support
from such person. In the event that the in loco parentis relationship
has not existed for the full two year period, a lesser period of time
is acceptable in unusual hardship cases, such as death of both
parents.
D. Orphan
An orphan who has lived for longer than a year in an established
orphan's home in Texas operated by a fraternal, religious, or civic
organization and has been graduated from the orphan's home shall
be considered a resident of Texas provided he remains in Texas
from the time of such graduation until he enters an institution of
higher education.
50
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
E. Emancipated Child
Under certain circumstances, a minor may become emancipated or
freed from parental control. If the minor has broken completely
with his parents, is in fact residing apart from them, and has been
entirely independent and wholly self-supporting, he may establish
that he is "emancipated." If emancipation is clearly proved, the
residence classification of the minor is determined by the residence
of the minor rather than the residence of the parents, and after 12
months in Texas under such circumstances, the minor may be
classified as a resident, if he otherwise satisfies the statutory re-
quirements applicable to those over 21 (e.g., see presumption
arising from residence while a student). Proof of his emancipation
is the responsibility of the minor.
F. Married Minors
A minor male who is married shall have the power and capacity of
a single person of full age and is entitled to select his own place of
legal residence. After 12 months' residence in Texas under such
circumstances the minor may be classified as a resident if he
otherwise satisfies the statutory requirements applicable to those
over 21 years of age. The legal residence of a minor female who
is married is controlled by the legal residence of her husband.
The residence classification for tuition purposes of either a non-
resident male or female who marries a Texas resident shall be
governed by the provisions of the tuition statute and of these rules
and regulations as hereinafter set out.
G. Minors Whose Parents Moved to Another State or Foreign
Country
If the parents of a minor who is enrolled as a resident student move
their legal residence to another state or foreign country on, or after
August 15, 1971, the minor shall be classified as a nonresident at
all subsequent registration periods. Under the provisions of Section
54.055, the minor will be entitled to pay the resident tuition fee as
long as he remains continuously enrolled in a regular session in a
public institution of higher education. The minor student must
re-enroll for the next available regular semester immediately fol-
lowing the parents' change of legal residence to another state.
If the parents of a minor move to another state or foreign country,
or reside outside the state or in a foreign country at the time of
enrolling in an institution of higher education, but claim legal
residence in Texas, conclusive evidence must be presented that the
father is still claiming legal residence in the State of Texas and that
he has the present intent to return to the state. A certificate from
the employer of the parents that the move outside the state was
temporary and that there are definite plans to return the parents
GENERAL INFORMATION
51
to Texas by a determinable future date may be considered in this
connection.
If a minor whose parents have moved their legal residence to an-
other state or foreign country resides in Texas for 12 consecutive
months following his 21st birthday and by his actions clearly indi-
cates that his intention is to establish permanent residence in the
state, he may be classified as a resident student effective with the
beginning of the term or semester following his 22nd birthday
despite the fact that his entire period of residence in Texas has
been as a student.
When the parents of a minor who have established their legal
residence in another state or foreign country return and reestablish
their legal residence in Texas the minor must be classified as a
nonresident until the first registration after the parents have resided
in the state for a 12-month period following their return.
II. RESIDENCE OF INDIVIDUALS OVER TWENTY-ONE
Statute: Section 54.052(d) An individual twenty-one (21) years of age or
over who has come from outside Texas and who is gainfully employed
in Texas for a 12-month period immediately preceding registration in an
educational institution shall be classified as a resident student as long as
he continues to maintain a legal residence in Texas; and
Section 54.052(e) An individual twenty-one (21) years of age or over
who resides out of the state or who has come from outside Texas and
who registers in an educational institution before having resided in Texas
for a 12-month period shall be classified as a non-resident student.
Section 54.054 A nonresident student classification is presumed to be cor-
rect as long as the residence of the individual in the state is primarily for
the purpose of attending an educational institution. After residing in Texas
for at least twelve (12) months, a nonresident student may be reclassified
as a resident student as provided in the rules and regulations adopted
by the Coordinating Board, Texas College and University System. Any
individual reclassified as a resident student is entitled to pay the tuition
fee for a resident of Texas at any subsequent registration as long as he
continues to maintain his legal residence in Texas.
Establishment of Residence
Any individual 21 years of age or over who moves into the state and
who is gainfully employed within the state for a period of 12
months prior to enrolling in an educational institution (defined as
any institution of higher education, public or private, above the
high school level), is entitled to classification as a resident. If such
12 months' residence, however, can be shown not to have been for
the purpose of establishing legal residence in the state but to have
been for some other purpose, the individual is not entitled to be
classified as a resident. Any student registering in an educational
institution prior to having resided in the state for 12 months shall
be classified as a nonresident for tuition purposes.
52
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
A person classified as a nonresident student upon his first enroll-
ment in an institution of higher education is presumed to be a non-
resident for the period during which he continues as a student. If
such nonresident student withdraws from school and resides in the
state while gainfully employed for a period of 12 months, upon
re-entry into an institution of higher education he will be entitled
to be reclassified as a resident for tuition purposes. Accumulations
of summer and other vacation periods do not satisfy this require-
ment. A student is not entitled to reclassification after a residence
in the state for 12 months merely on the basis of his or his wife's
employment, registration to vote, registration of a motor vehicle
and payment of personal property taxes thereon, or the securing of
a Texas driver's license. The presumption of a "nonresident" is not
a conclusive presumption, however, and other facts may be con-
sidered to determine if the presumption has been overcome. Ma-
terial to this determination are business or personal facts or actions
unequivocally indicative of a fixed intention to reside permanently
in the state including, but not limited to, the length of residence
and full-time employment prior to registering in the institution, the
fact of full-time employment and the nature of such employment
(regular industrial, business or professional employment as distin-
guished from student-type employment) while a student, purchase
of a homestead with substantial down-payment, and marriage to a
resident of Texas. All of these facts are weighed in the light of the
fact that a student's residence while in school is primarily for the
purpose of education and not to establish residence, and that
decisions of an individual as to residence are generally made after
the completion of an education and not before.
III. MARRIED STUDENTS
Statute: Section 54.056 A nonresident who marries and remains married to
a resident of Texas, classified as such under this Act at the time of the
marriage and at the time the nonresident registers, is entitled to pay the
resident tuition fee regardless of the length of time he has lived in Texas,
and any student who is a resident of Texas who marries a nonresident
is entitled to pay the resident tuition fee as long as he does not adopt
the legal residence of the spouse in another state.
Nonresident Who Marries a Resident of Texas
The nonresident male or female student who marries a resident of
Texas is entitled to pay the resident tuition at the registration
period next following the date of marriage upon submission of evi-
dence of such marriage and of the spouse's legal residence in Texas.
The legal residence of a wife, regardless of her age, follows that
of her husband. Therefore, a woman who is a resident of Texas and
who marries a nonresident shall be classified as a nonresident for
all enrollment periods subsequent to her marriage; provided, how-
ever, that she shall be permitted to pay the resident tuition so long
as she does not affirmatively by her actions adopt the legal resi-
GENERAL INFORMATION
53
dence of her husband (for example, registering to vote in another
state).
In the event a nonresident male or female student who marries a
resident of Texas, and subsequently, is divorced, such nonresident
student shall be classified as a nonresident for all enrollment periods
subsequent to the date of such divorce.
IV. MILITARY PERSONNEL AND VETERANS
Statute: Section 54.058(a) Military personnel are classified in the following
manner:
(b) An officer, enlisted man or woman, selectee or draftee of the Army,
Army Reserve, Army National Guard, Air National Guard, Texas State
Guard, Air Force, Air Force Reserve, Navy, Navy Reserve, Marine Corps,
Marine Corps Reserve, Coast Guard, or Coast Guard Reserve of the
United States, who is assigned to duty in Texas is entitled to register
himself, his spouse, and their children in a state institution of higher
education by paying the tuition fee and other fees or charges required
of Texas residents, without regard to the length of time he has been
assigned to duty or resided within the state. However, out-of-state Army
National Guard or Air National Guard members attending training with
Texas Army or Air National Guard members under National Guard
Bureau regulations may not be exempted from nonresident tuition by
virtue of that training status nor may out-of-state Army, Air Force, Navy,
Marine Corps, or Coast Guard Reserves training with units in Texas under
similar regulations be exempted from nonresident tuition by virtue of
such training status. It is the intent of the legislature that only those
members of the Army or Air National Guard, Texas State Guard, or
other reserve forces mentioned above be exempted from the nonresident
tuition fee and other fees and charges only when they become members
of Texas units of the military organizations mentioned above.
(c) As long as they reside continuously in Texas, the spouse and children
of a member of the Armed Forces of the United States who has been
assigned to duty elsewhere immediately following assignment to duty
in Texas are entitled to pay the tuition fees and other fees or charges
provided for Texas residents.
(d) If nonresident military personnel are attending an institution of higher
education under a contract between the institution and any branch of
the Armed Forces of the United States, in which the tuition of the mem-
ber of the military is paid in full by the United States Government, the
student shall pay the nonresident tuition fee;
(e) A Texas institution of higher education may charge to the United
States Government the nonresident tuition fee for a veteran enrolled
under the provisions of a Federal law or regulation authorizing educational
or training benefits for veterans;
(f) The spouse and children of a member of the Armed Forces of the
United States who dies or is killed are entitled to pay the resident
tuition fee, if the wife and children become residents of Texas within
60 days of the date of death; and
(g) If a member of the Armed Forces of the United States is stationed
outside Texas and his spouse and children establish residence in Texas
by residing in Texas and by filing with the Texas institution of higher
education at which they plan to register a letter of intent to establish
residence in Texas, the institution of higher education shall permit the
54
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
spouse and children to pay the tuition, fees, and other charges provided
for Texas residents without regard to length of time that they have
resided within the State.
A. Certification of Assignment to Duty in Texas
Subsection (b) provides that military personnel assigned to duty
within the State of Texas, their husband or wife as the case may
be and their children, shall be entitled to pay the same tuition
as a resident of Texas regardless of the length of their physical
presence in the state. To be entitled to pay the resident tuition fees,
such military personnel shall submit at the time of each registration
a statement from his commanding officer or personnel officer cer-
tifying that he is then assigned to duty in Texas and that same will
be in effect at the time of such registration in an institution of
higher education. This subsection also provides that a nonresident
member of an out-of-state National Guard unit who is temporarily
training with a Texas National Guard unit will not be entitled to
pay the resident tuition.
B. Spouse and Children of Member of Armed Services
Subsection (c) provides that the spouse and children of a member
of the armed forces assigned to duty outside the State of Texas
immediately after assignment in Texas may be entitled to pay the
resident tuition as long as they reside continuously in Texas.
Subsection (g) provides that the spouse and children of a mem-
ber of the armed forces who is assigned to duty outside the State
of Texas and sends his family to the State of Texas may be entitled
to pay the resident tuition if they file with the institution of higher
education at which the student intends to register a letter of intent,
an affidavit or other evidence satisfactory to the institution stating
that they intend to become permanent residents of Texas.
Subsection (f) provides that a member of the immediate family
(which shall include spouse or children) of a member of the armed
forces who dies or is killed in action while in military service may
qualify to pay the resident tuition if they become residents of Texas
within 60 days of the date of death. To qualify under-this-provision,
the student shall submit to the institution of higher education
satisfactory evidence establishing the date of death and residence
in Texas.
The military personnel spouse and children enumerated in (b),
(c), (f), and (g) are classified as nonresidents but shall be en-
titled to pay the resident tuition regardless of their length of resi-
dence in Texas if they comply with the provisions of the statute
and these rules and regulations.

C. Nonresident Military Personnel Attending College Under Con-
tract
Subsection (d) provides that nonresident military personnel attend-
ing an institution of higher education under a contract with any
branch of the armed forces where the tuition is paid in full under
the provisions of such contract shall be charged nonresident tuition
even though such military personnel may be assigned to duty
pursuant to military orders at an institution of higher education.
D. Nonresident Attending College Under Federal Benefits Pro-
grams for Veterans
Subsection (e) provides that the institution of higher education
may charge the nonresident tuition fee for a nonresident veteran to
the United States Government under the provisions of any federal
law or regulation authorizing educational or training benefits for
veterans.
E. Legal Residence of Person in Military Service
A person in military service is presumed to maintain during his
entire period of active service the same legal residence which was
in effect at the time he entered military service. A person stationed
in a state on military service is presumed not to establish a legal
residence in that state because his presence is not voluntary but
under military orders. It is possible for a member of the military
service to abandon his domicile of original entry into the service
and to select another, but to show establishment of a new domicile
during the term of active service, there must be clear and un-
equivocal proof of such intent. An extended period of service alone
is not sufficient. The purchase of residential property is not con-
clusive evidence unless coupled with other facts indicating an
intent to put down roots in the community and to reside there
after termination of military service. Evidence which will be con-
sidered in determining this requisite intent includes, but is not
limited to a substantial investment in a residence and the claiming
of a homestead exemption thereon, registration to vote, and voting
in local elections, registration of an automobile in Texas and pay-
ment of personal property taxes thereon, obtaining a Texas driver's
license, maintaining checking accounts, savings accounts, and
safety deposit boxes in Texas banks, existence of wills or other
legal documents indicating residence in Texas, change of home-
of-record and designation of Texas as the place of legal residence
for income tax purposes on military personnel records, business
transactions or activities not normally engaged in by military
personnel, membership in professional or other state organizations,
and marriage to a resident of Texas. Purchase of property during
terminal years of military service preceding retirement generally
56
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
is given greater weight than a similar purchase made prior to
such terminal period.
F. Residence Classification of Veterans Upon Separation from
Military Service
A person who enrolls in an institution of higher education following
his separation from military service must be classified as a non-
resident student unless, (1) he was a legal resident of Texas at
the time he entered military service and has not relinquished that
residence, (2) he can prove that during his military service he has,
in fact, established a bona fide, legal residence in Texas at a time
at least 12 months prior to his registration, or (3) he has resided in
Texas other than as a student for 12 months prior to his registration
and subsequent to his discharge from service.
V. EMPLOYEES OF INSTITUTIONS OF
HIGHER EDUCATION
Statute: Section 54.059 A teacher, professor, or other employees of a Texas
institution 78 higher education is entitled to register himself, his spouse,
and their mildren in a state institution of higher education by paying
the tuition fee and other fees or charges required for Texas residents,
without regard to the length of time he has resided in Texas. A teacher,
professor, or other employee of a Texas institution of higher education
is any person employed at least one-half time on a regular monthly salary
basis by a state institution of higher education.
A person employed at least half-time on a regularly monthly salary
basis (not an hourly employee) by any public institution of higher
education, with an effective date of employment on or before the
12th class day of a regular semester or the 4th class day of a sum-
mer term, may pay the same tuition as a resident of Texas for
himself, his husband or wife as the case may be and their children,
regardless of the length of residence in the state. To be entitled to
pay the resident tuition fees such employee must submit prior to
the time of each registration a statement from the Director of
Personnel or a designated representative of the institution of higher
education for which he is employed certifying that such employ-
ment will be in effect at the time of registration.
VI. STUDENT EMPLOYEES
Statute: Section 54.051(o) A teaching assistant, research assistant, or other
student employee of any institution covered by this section is entitled
to register himself, his spouse, and their children in a state institution
of higher education by paying the tuition fees and other fees or charges
required for Texas residents, without regard to the length of time he
had resided in Texas; provided that said student employee is employed
at least one-half time in a position which relates to his degree program
under rules and regulations established by the employer institution.
This exemption shall continue for students employed two consecutive
semesters through the summer session following such employment if the

standards established by the institution, if the employee has satisfactorily
completed his employment.
A student employed at least half-time by any public institution of
higher education in a position which relates to his degree program,
with an effective date of employment on or before the 12th class
day of a regular semester, or the 4th class day of a summer term,
may pay the same tuition as a resident of Texas for himself, his
husband or wife as the case may be, and their children regardless
of the length of residence in the state. The institution which em-
ploys the student shall determine whether or not the student's job
relates to his degree program. If a student is employed by an
institution of higher education for consecutive Fall and Spring
semesters and he was further eligible to pay the tuition charged
to Texas residents during those Fall and Spring semesters because
of the provisions of this subsection, then the student may continue
to pay the resident tuition rate during the summer session following
the Spring employment if the institution is unable to provide
employment and if the student has satisfactorily completed his
employment.
VII. COMPETITIVE SCHOLARSHIPS
Statute: Section 54.051(p) A nonresident student holding a competitive
scholarship of at least $200 for the academic year or summer for which

residents without regard to the length of time he has resided in Texas,
provided that he must compete with other students, including Texas
residents, for the scholarship and that the scholarship must be awarded
by a scholarship committee officially recognized by the administration
of the institution of higher education.
An official scholarship committee or committees of a public institu-
tion of higher education may award competitive scholarships in
amounts of $200 or more for the academic year, the summer session
or both. If a nonresident student obtains one of these competitive
scholarships, he may pay the same tuition as a resident of Texas
during the registration period in which the scholarship is in effect.
The student must present a statement from the official scholarship
committee certifying that such scholarship will be in effect at the
time of registration.
VIII. CITIZENS OF ANY COUNTRY OTHER
THAN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
Statute: Section 54.057 An alien who is living in this country under a visa
permitting permanent residence or who has filed with the proper Federal
immigration authorities a declaration of intention to become a citizen has
the same privilege of qualifying for resident status for fee purposes under
this Act as has a citizen of the United States. A resident alien residing
in a junior college district located immediately adjacent to Texas boundary
lines shall be charged the resident tuition by that junior college.
60
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
Citizens of any country other than the United States of America
who are in this country on a student visa other than one entitling
them to immigrant status and who enroll in an institution of higher
education covered by Section 54.051 [sic, 54.057] of the Texas
Education Code shall be classified as
«
students who are citizens
"
of any country other than the United States of America
for
purposes of Section (a) (7) of Article 2654c, V.T.C.S. Such a
student who is in this country on an immigrant visa can be classified
as a resident student if he has resided in the state for a period of
12 months under circumstances indicating his intention to reside
permanently in Texas and not merely to complete his education.
To this extent a citizen of any country other than the United States
of America residing in Texas on an immigrant visa shall be in no
different position than the citizen of the United States who has
been a resident of another state. A citizen of any country other
than the United States of America residing in the United States
of America in a State other than Texas on an immigrant visa and
has established his intent to reside permanently in such other State
shall be classified as a nonresident.
IX. RECIPROCITY CLAUSE APPLICABLE
TO JUNIOR COLLEGES
Statute: Section 54.060 The nonresident tuition fee prescribed in this Act
does not apply to a nonresident student who is a resident of a state
situated adjacent to Texas and who registers in any Texas public junior
college situated immediately adjacent to the state in which the non-
resident resides. The nonresident student described in this Subsection
shall pay an amount equivalent to the amount charged a Texas student
registered at a similar school in the. state in which the nonresident
student resides.
X. STUDENT RESPONSIBILITIES
A. Student Responsibility to Register Under Proper Classification
The responsibility of registering under the proper residence clas-
sification is that of the student, and if there is any question of his
right to classification as a resident of Texas, it is his obligation,
prior to or at the time of his registration, to raise the question with
the administrative officials of the institution in which he is register-
ing and have such officially determined.
B. Notification Upon Becoming a Nonresident
Every student who is classified as a resident student but who be-
comes a nonresident at any time by virtue of a change of legal
residence by his own action or by the person controlling his
domicile is required to notify the proper administrative officials of
his institution at once.
GENERAL INFORMATION
61
XI. OFFICIAL CHANGE OF RESIDENCE STATUS
A. Application for Reclassification
Every student classified as a nonresident student shall be con-
sidered to retain that status until such time as he shall have made
written application for reclassification in the form prescribed by
the institution and shall have been officially reclassified in writing
as a resident of Texas by the proper administrative officers of the
institution.
B. Reclassification as a Nonresident
Every person who has been classified as a resident of Texas shall be
reclassified as a nonresident student whenever he shall report, or
there is found to exist, circumstances indicating a change in legal
residence to another state. If any student who has been classified
as a resident of Texas shall be found to have been erroneously so
classified, he shall be reclassified as a nonresident and shall be
required to pay the difference between the resident and nonresident
fees for such semesters in which he was so erroneously classified.
In addition, he shall be required to pay back all monies borrowed
from the Texas Opportunity Plan Fund.
C. Reclassification as a Resident
If any student has been erroneously classified as a nonresident stu-
dent and subsequently proves to the satisfaction of the appropriate
officials of an institution of higher education that he should have
been classified as a resident student, he shall be reclassified as a
resident of Texas and shall be entitled to a refund of the difference
between the resident and nonresident fees for the semesters in
which he was so erroneously classified.
XII. PENALTIES
Statute: Section 54.053 The governing board of each institution required
by this Act to charge a nonresident tuition or registration fee is subject
to the rules, regulations, and interpretations issued by the Coordinating
Board, Texas College and University System, for the administration of
the nonresident tuition provisions of this Act. The rules, regulations, and
interpretations promulgated by the Coordinating Board shall be furnished
to the presidents or administrative heads of all Texas public senior and
junior colleges and universities.
Section 54.061. The governing board of an institution of higher education
may assess and collect from each nonresident student who fails to comply
with the rules and regulations of the boards concerning nonresident fees

of deliberate concealment of facts, or misrepresentation of fact, he
may be subject to appropriate disciplinary action, in accordance
with the rules and regulations that may be adopted by the govern-
ing boards of the respective institutions of higher education.

UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
STUDENT CLASSIFICATION
The undergraduate student's classification is based on the
total number of semester hours earned at the University of
Houston and accepted in transfer from other colleges and
universities by the University of Houston, regardless of
whether or not the courses involved are applicable to the
student's major or degree plan.
Freshman
0-29 semester hours
Sophomore
30-59 semester hours
Junior
60-89 semester hours
Senior
90 or more semester hours
Law, Optometry, and Pharmacy classifications are used for
students majoring in these professional areas.
The post-baccalaureate classification describes a student who
has a degree, but who is not enrolled in a formal graduate
degree program. A post-baccalaureate student may not re-
ceive graduate credit.
The graduate classification denotes the student who is en-
rolled for academic courses to be applied on a master's or
doctor's degree.
COURSE NUMBERING
All courses are identified by department and number. Three-
digit numbers are used, but only the first two digits are
significant to the student.
The first digit of a course number indicates the scholastic
level. Courses in the 100 series are for freshmen, 200 for
sophomores, 300 for juniors, and 400 and 500 for seniors.
Advanced hours for undergraduate students involve courses
in the 300, 400, and 500 series. Courses numbered 600 and
higher are limited to graduate students, post-baccalaureate
students, and seniors taking the courses for graduate credit
on a mixed program petition. Courses in the 800 series are
primarily for doctoral students.
A freshman who has less than 24 semester hours credit may
not take a course on the sophomore level except when the
actual prerequisites for the course have been fulfilled. Soph-
omores may take junior courses, and juniors may take senior
courses.
GENERAL INFORMATION
69
The second digit indicates the amount of credit: digits 1
through 5 designate corresponding amounts of credit and
digits 6 through 9 are additional designations for three hours
of credit. For example, courses numbered 131, 161, and 171
all carry three hours of credit.
COURSE PUNCTUATION
One of the following marks of punctuation may immediately
follow the course number, or may separate a series of course
numbers. Internal punctuation (between multilisted courses)
takes precedence over final punctuation in a series of course
numbers. The significance of each mark of punctuation is as
follows:
Colon: A colon (:) following a course number indicates that
the course may be taken as an independent one-semester
course. This also applies when two course numbers are sep-
arated by a colon.
Comma: A comma (,) between course numbers indicates that
both courses must be taken before credit is received for either,
but the second course may be taken first.
Hyphen: A hyphen (-) between course numbers indicates that
both courses must be taken before credit is received for either.
The first course must be completed before the student enrolls
in the second course, or if "concurrent enrollment only" is
shown in the course description, both courses must be taken
at the same time.
Semicolon: A semicolon (;) between course numbers indicates
that the first course may be taken and justify credit without
completion of the second course, but the second course can-
not be taken without the first as prerequisite.

Maximum Course Overload, Fall and Spring Semesters
To qualify for an overload, the student must have an average
of B or higher in the preceding full summer session or semes-
ter's work at the University of Houston over a minimum of
12 semester hours (or an average of C or higher over all work
attempted if the student is in his last or next-tô-last semester
before graduation). The student must obtain approval of a
petition for overload in advance of registration from the
dean or a designated representative of the college of his
major.
The maximum overload permitted in any college by an ap-
proved petition is 21 semester hours, or 22 hours if laboratory
courses are involved.
Teachers' Course Load, Fall and Spring Semesters
Although the first obligation of an employed teacher is to
his professional assignment, he is also responsible for his
professional development. Studies indicate that most people
with full-time teaching assignments cannot do justice to more
than the equivalent of a single course each semester. Registra-
tion is consequently limited to one course. Course loads
in excess of this requirement must be approved by the stu-
dent's adviser and employer (superintendent or designated
representative). Except in unusual circumstances, approval to
exceed the three-semester-hour limit will be granted in only
one semester of an academic year. The total number of credit
hours taken in the academic year will not be permitted to
exceed nine.
Course Load, Summer Session
1. The load of an undergraduate student may not exceed six
or seven hours each six-week term, and 12 to 14 hours for
both summer terms, regardless of major or college. One
half of a student's enrollment in twelve-week classes should
be added to any six-week enrollment to determine his total
load for the six-week term.
2. Only the senior student who is graduating in the August
convocation may complete a maximum of 15 hours for the
entire summer, with a maximum of nine hours in one six-
week term. The student must have a petition for overload
approved in advance of the first summer term registration
by the dean or a designated representative of his college.

Law students should refer to the course load information
included in the Bates College of Law Catalogue.

Assignment of Grades
Grades are awarded in courses in which a student is officially
enrolled after the last day to drop a course or withdraw with-
out receiving a grade. This date is indicated in the Academic
Calendar for each enrollment period.
Explanation of Grades
Passing grades for which semester hours of credit are awarded
are A, B, C, D, and S.
S and U The grades of S and U may be awarded in certain
specified courses.
I
The grade of I is a conditional and temporary
grade given when a student is passing a course
but, for reasons beyond his control, has not com-
pleted a relatively small part of all requirements.
The student is responsible for informing his
instructor immediately of the reason for not sub-
mitting an assignment on time or not taking an
examination. The grade of I must be changed by
fulfillment of course requirements within 12
months of the date awarded or it will remain an
I unless changed by the instructor. In the case
of a student enrolled in his graduating semester,
a grade of I which has not been made up by the
date of graduation will have the effect of an F,
regardless of the amount of time that has elapsed
since the I grade was awarded.
W
The grade of W indicates (a) that the student
was passing or (b) that there were no evaluative
data available at the time the student dropped
the course. The grade of W is assigned only to
a course dropped after the date indicated in the
Academic Calendar as the last day to drop a
course without receiving a grade.
GENERAL INFORMATION
73
The Grade Point Average
Four grade points are awarded for each semester hour in
which the student receives an A, three grade points for each
hour of B, two grade points for each hour of C, one grade
point for each hour of D, and no grade point for an F. The
grade point average is the quotient obtained by dividing the
total number of grade points earned by the number of se-
mester hours in which a student is enrolled. Grades of S, U,
I, and W are not assigned grade point values.
Cumulative Grade Point Average
The cumulative grade point average is based upon all of the
student's work taken at the University of Houston, including
courses that are repeated, for which grade point values are
assigned.
Fulfillment of Grade Requirements for a Degree
To determine the fulfillment of qualitative degree require-
ments, the cumulative grade point average is calculated as
described above with the following differences:
1. The grade of I is considered an F for the student en-
rolled in his graduating semester. (The grade of I is
defined in the "Explanation of Grades" section.)
2. Only the hours and grades earned on the last enroll-
ment in a repeated course will be used for computation
of the required grade point average for graduation.
Further enrollment of a student in a course twice failed may
be prohibited on recommendation of the chairman of the
department offering the course and approval of the student's
college dean; however, such action does not constitute an
exemption from fulfilling a degree requirement.
FINAL GRADE REPORTS
The Registrar's Office mails final grades as soon as they are
compiled after the close of the semester. The report reflects
the grade assigned by the instructor on his final grade sheet;
any subsequent change is not included. Grades are mailed to
the permanent home address of unmarried students under
21 and to the local address of others. Only one report is
mailed; additional copies are not available.
SCHOLASTIC REQUIREMENTS
Law and graduate students should refer to scholastic re-
74
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
quirements specified in the Bates College of Law, Graduate
School of Social Work, and Graduate School catalogues.
The undergraduate student is expected to maintain at least
a 2.0 grade point average (C), which is the minimum per-
mitted for graduation. He is subject to scholastic action any
semester or summer session in which he attempts one or more
semester hours. The summer terms are considered a unit
equivalent to a semester.
Academic Probation or Suspension
The University changed from a semester system for scho-
lastic action to a cumulative grade point system effective with
the fall semester 1969-1970. A student on probation under
prior standards will carry that status with him into these
requirements.
1. Possible probation or suspension is based on the total
University of Houston records:
a. A freshman (through 29 semester hours) whose
cumulative record is below 1.6 is placed on proba-
tion, or is suspended if he entered that semester on
probation.
b. A sophomore (30 to 59 semester hours) whose
cumulative record is below 1.7 is placed on proba-
tion, or is suspended if he entered that semester on
probation.
c. A junior (60 to 89 semester hours) whose cumula-
tive record is below 1.8 is placed on probation, or is
suspended if he entered that semester on probation.
d. A senior (90 or more semester hours), post-bac-
calaureate, optometry, or pharmacy student whose
cumulative record is below 1.9 is placed on proba-
tion, or is suspended if he entered that semester on
probation.
e. The academic dean may place on probation, retain
on probation, or suspend any deficient student with-
out regard to these regulations.
f. A student on academic probation whose semester
grade point average is 2.0 (C) or higher will not
be suspended at the close of that semester even
though his cumulative grade point average remains
below the required average for his classification. His
status will remain "academic probation."
Should the circumstances repeat themselves in an
GENERAL INFORMATION
75
ensuing semester, evidence of satisfactory progress
toward degree must accompany the 2.0 average in
order to allow continuance.
g. Without regard to these regulations, the dean may
remove from academic probation or suspension any
student whose academic progress warrants such
action.
2. Summer Transient Students are not subject to scholastic
action while in that status.
3. The cumulative grade point average is based only on
course work taken at the University for which the stu-
dent earns a grade of A, B, C, D, or F.
4. The grade of I, W, S, and U do not count as hours
attempted in computing the cumulative grade point
average.
5. The summer terms are considered a unit equivalent to
a semester for the purpose of academic action.
6. A repeated course, including courses repeated within a
summer session, counts the same as a new course both
in determination of classification and in computing the
cumulative grade point average.
7. Only. hours earned at the University of Houston and
accepted in transfer from other colleges count toward
the student's classification.
8. The official classification of a student is determined by
the Registrar.
9. Credit awarded by examination and hours earned with
a grade of S are counted in determining classification,
but not in determining the grade point average.
10. Grade changes:
a. A change of grade necessitated by a University
error will only be used to determine the student's
status for his last enrollment.
b. A change of grade from I (incomplete) will only
be used to determine the student's status for his
future enrollment.
Removal from Academic Probation
The student may be removed from probation at the close of a
semester in which his cumulative grade point average meets
the required standard for his classification.
76
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
Readmission from Academic Suspension
The period of suspension and the student's subsequent read-
mission on academic probation are based on the entire aca-
demic record at all colleges attended. The first suspension
is applicable, therefore, only to the student never previously
suspended.
1. The student suspended at the close of the spring semes-
ter is suspended for the following summer session and
fall semester.
2. The first suspension is for a period of at least one
semester.
3. If suspended a second time, regardless of institution,
the student may not reenroll for a period of at least one
year (12 months).
4. If suspended a third time, regardless of institution, no
further enrollment should be contemplated at the Uni-
versity of Houston.
5. Readmission from a second or subsequent suspension
may be approved only by the student's academic dean.
The petition for readmission must be made in writing
and supported by transcripts of all completed college
work.
6. A student requesting to change his major to another
college must obtain approval for readmission from the
dean of the college in which the desired major is
offered.
SCHOLASTIC RECOGNITION
The Dean's List, a tabulation of the names of all under-
graduate honor students, is compiled each semester by the
colleges and the Downtown School.
To qualify for this recognition, the student must earn at least
a 3.5 grade-point average (the grade of S is not counted)
during the semester on nine or more semester hours com-
pleted. Any student who earns a grade of I (except in a
Senior Honors Thesis course), D, F, or U during the semester
is excluded from consideration for the Dean's List.
STUDENT RECORDS
The Registrar's Office aids students in solving the problems
sometimes encountered during enrollment. Information and
answers to many questions are readily available to students
GENERAL INFORMATION
77
in Room 131 of the Ezekiel W. Cullen Building from 8 a.m.
to 8 p.m., Monday through Thursday; 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.,
Friday; and 9 a.m. to 12 noon, Saturday during the fall and
spring semesters.
CLASS ATTENDANCE
Students are expected to be diligent in their studies and
regular in class attendance. The University has no policy
allowing a certain number of excused absences or cuts. A
student whose absences are determined by the instructor to
be excessive shall be dropped from the course. Unavoidable
absences should be reported to the instructor when the stu-
dent returns to class.
Absences caused by participation in a University-sponsored
activity are considered official if the sponsor of the activity
has received approval from the administration. The student
must make up the work which he missed even though the
absences are official.
DROPPING COURSES
Enrollment in an individual course may be terminated in
either one of these ways:
1. The student may drop a course by submitting a Section
Change Request form, which is available in the
Registrar's Office. If the student was required to obtain
his adviser's approval during registration, he must again
secure his academic adviser's signature on the Section
Change Request before the drop can be processed.
2. For the following reasons, the instructor may drop a
student from his course by submitting a Drop Report
to the Registrar's Office:
a. For excessive absences.
b. For other causes which tend to disrupt the academic
process (except that those actions involving aca-
demic honesty will come under the jurisdiction of
the Academic Honesty Policy). The student may
make timely appeal through the office of the dean
of the college in which the course is taught. The
student is responsible for verifying with the Regis-
trar's Office that an instructor has dropped him
from a course.
The effective date recorded for termination of enrollment
for all matters relating to University records shall be the
date the Section Change Request form or Drop Report is
received by the Registrar's Office, regardless of the date of
last class attendance.
78
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
No refund is made for individual courses that are dropped.
Refunds are made according to the Refund Regulations
Schedule on page 45 only upon the student's withdrawal
from the University.
REINSTATEMENT IN DROPPED COURSES
A student who is dropped by his instructor or who drops a
course may, if extraordinary circumstances prevail, be rein-
stated by securing written permission from the instructor.
The prescribed forms may be obtained in the Registrar's
Office.
WITHDRAWAL FROM THE UNIVERSITY
The term withdrawal applies to the dropping of all courses
for which a student is registered at the University of Houston.
Student Withdrawal
Withdrawal from the University may be initiated by the stu-
dent in the following instances.
1. General Withdrawal
In addition to following the procedure for dropping a
course, the student must return all library books and
laboratory equipment and have his University record clear
in every respect. If the student is unable to come to the
Registrar's Office at the time of withdrawal, he may write
to the Assistant Registrar, Registration, and request that
the withdrawal be made for him; the recorded date for
the withdrawal shall be the date the student's letter is
received.
If a student's enrollment in a course is terminated on or
before the last day to drop or withdraw without receiving
a grade (a date listed in the Academic Calendar), the
course will not appear on his permanent record and a
grade will not be assigned. When the termination is made
after this date, a grade of W (withdrawal, [a] passing,
[b] no evaluative data available at the time of drop) or
F (withdrawal, failing) will be assigned by the instructor
at the close of the semester, and the course and grade
will appear on the student's permanent record.
Drops or withdrawals may not be made, except in extra-
ordinary circumstances, during the final three weeks of a
fall or spring semester or 12-week summer session or dur-
ing the last week of a six-week summer term. When the
drop or withdrawal has not been completed by the termi-
GENERAL INFORMATION
79
nal date listed in the Academic Calendar, the student will
be retained on the class roll even though he may be absent
for the remainder of the semester or term. A grade of F
will be assigned unless circumstances warrant a grade of
I (incomplete).
2. Military Withdrawal
Students who are inducted or reservists who are called to
active duty may petition the Registrar for full credit in
their courses under the following circumstances:
1. The student must have attended through three
fourths of the semester or term. Three fourths of
the semester or term shall be determined as the
close of the twelfth week of classes counting from
the first day of classes in a regular semester, as the
close of the fourth week of classes in a six-week
summer term, and as the close of the ninth week
of classes in a 12-week summer session.
2. The student must be earning a grade of C or better
in each course.
Questions concerning such petitions should be addressed
to the Registrar's Office.
University Withdrawal
In addition to suspension for academic and/or disciplinary
causes, a student may be withdrawn by the University for
medical and/or financial reasons.
1. Cashier Withdrawal
A student who is delinquent in financial obligations of
any nature to the University may be withdrawn from the
University. The student may not be reinstated at the
University until he has satisfied his financial obligation.
2. Medical Withdrawal
The Director of Health Service acting with the Vice Presi-
dent, Dean of Students may effect the withdrawal of a
student at any time when, in their opinions, such action
is necessary for medical reasons. Details of the procedures
followed in these circumstances are available from the
Health Service.
In such cases, the Vice President, Dean of Students will
notify in writing the student's academic dean of the action
taken and the effective date. The academic dean will be
asked to notify the student's instructors of the action in
order that they may take the circumstances into account
when awarding grades.
80
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
MAINTENANCE OF RECORDS
A student must file changes of address, major, and/or name
with the Registrar's Office during the semester.
Change of Address
A current, correct University record of the student's address
while at school and his permanent mailing address is of great
importance to the student. He must promptly report to the
Registrar's Office any change in mailing address. A student
will not be excused from penalties on the grounds that he
did not receive communications mailed from the University
if he has failed to report his new address.
Change of Major
When a change of major is advisable, it should be requested
four to six weeks before registration. Undergraduate change
of major approval forms may be obtained in the Registrar's
Office. Graduate change of major forms are available in the
Office of the Graduate School. A change from the major
established at the time of first enrollment is permitted, but
the student should not apply for a change until he has re-
ceived the best possible advice. False starts are a waste of
time.
The choice of a major is vitally significant to a student's
career. Although the student must make the final decision,
the University offers assistance with academic and vocational
planning. Information concerning curricular requirements is
available from academic advisers. Faculty advisers offer spe-
cific information and advice related to their respective fields.
Change of Name
University records of a student's name are based upon his
application for admission. Subsequent changes of name should
be promptly reported to the Registrar's Office.
CONFIDENTIALITY OF STUDENT RECORDS
Student records are released only for use by faculty and pro-
fessional staff for authorized University-related purposes. The
release of student records for off-campus use occurs only with
the student's knowledge and consent, or where required by
law, or upon subpoena duces tecum.
Public information which may be released upon request in-
cludes a student's home address, local address, local telephone
number, classification, major, dates of attendance, degree (if
any), and date of graduation. If a student does not wish for
this public information to be released, he is responsible for
GENERAL INFORMATION
81
notifying the Registrar's Office during the first week of classes
in each semester.
VOCATIONAL REHABILITATION
The Texas Rehabilitation Commission offers assistance for
tuition and required fees to students who have certain physical
or emotional handicaps, provided the vocational objective
selected by the handicapped person has been approved by an
appropriate representative of the Commission. Through this
state agency, other rehabilitation services are available to
assist handicapped persons to become employable.
Application for this type of assistance should be made to the
nearest rehabilitation office. Inquiries may be addressed to
the Commissioner, Texas Rehabilitation Commission, Medical
Park Tower, 1301 West 38th Street, Austin, Texas 78705.
PARKING AND TRAFFIC REGULATIONS
Students who operate motor vehicles on the University cam-
pus must abide by the parking and traffic regulations. Vehicles
must be registered with the Traffic and Security Department
and must display an identification sticker issued by that office.
LOSS OF PROPERTY
The University cannot be responsible for the loss of personal
property. Articles which are found should be turned in to the
Lost and Found window located in Governor's Hall of the
University Center. If identification is available, found articles
are returned to owners. Other articles may be claimed at the
Lost and Found counter between the hours of 8 a.m. and 5
p.m., Monday through Friday.
MILITARY AND SELECTIVE SERVICE
Students who are members of armed forces reserve units or
who are subject to military draft may contact the Registrar's
Office for information regarding military service.
ARMY RESERVE OFFICERS TRAINING CORPS
The University of Houston conducts both the two-year and
four-year Army ROTC programs. The four-year program con-
sists of two phases: a basic course taken in the freshman and
sophomore years designed to introduce the student to basic
military subjects and an advanced course offered during the
final two years to those cadets who have demonstrated a
82
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
positive potential for becoming effective officers. Training in
the advanced course is centered around leadership, tactics,
and administration implemented by occasional field training
exercises and by a six-week summer camp between the final
two years. Advanced students are paid a $100 per month
subsistence allowance and receive pay while attending ad-
vanced summer camp at the rate of one half of a second
lieutenant's base pay.
Applicants for the two-year program undergo a series of re-
quired mental and physical examinations and are selected on
a competitive basis for attendance at a basic ROTC summer
camp which sèrves as a substitute for the basic course.
The overall objectives of the ROTC program are to develop
and perfect the qualities of leadership required in both mili-
tary and civilian life and to give the student the opportunity
to reinforce his knowledge with actual practice in the tech-
niques of leadership. Upon successful completion of the pro-
gram, and award of a degree a student may be offered a
regular or reserve commission in the United States Army.
NAVAL RESERVE OFFICERS TRAINING CORPS
Although the University of Houston does not have a Naval
Reserve Officers Training Corps Unit on the campus, quali-
fied male students may join the Naval ROTC Unit at Rice
University as contract students. These students enter into a
contract with the Navy in which they agree to take certain
Naval Science courses and drills and to complete two summer
training sessions. The Navy provides all required uniforms and
Naval Science textbooks. No tuition is charged for the courses,
and the student receives $100 a month subsistence during
his junior and senior years. Upon graduation, the student is
commissioned as an Ensign in the Naval Reserve or Second
Lieutenant in the Marine Corps Reserve.
Further information may be obtained from the Professor of
Naval Science, Rice University.
COLD WAR GI BILL
Students who have been approved by the Veterans Adminis-
tration for educational benefits under Chapter 34, Title 38,
U. S. Code (the Cold War GI Bill) should present their
Certificates of Eligibility to the Registrar's Office after they
have completed registration.
Applications for educational benefits and inquiries of a tech-
nical nature should be made at the nearest Veterans Adminis-
tration Office.

GRADUATION UNDER A PARTICULAR CATALOGUE
A student normally is entitled to graduate under the degree
provisions of the catalogue in effect at the time of his first
completed semester of enrollment. These exceptions apply:
1. A catalogue more than ten years old shall not be used.
GENERAL INFORMATION
85
2. The program of the student who interrupts his enroll-
ment (for reasons other than involuntary military ser-
vice) for more than one calendar year shall be governed
by the catalogue in effect at the time of the student's
reentrance to the University. The student who inter-
rupts his enrollment for involuntary military service
must reenroll within one year from the date of separa-
tion from service and no more than five years from
the beginning of his military service in order for this
provision to apply. For these purposes, enrollment shall
be defined as registration for and successful completion
of at least one course during an academic term. A stu-
dent forced to withdraw for adequate cause before
completion of his course may petition for a waiver of
this provision at the time of withdrawal.
3. The program of the student who changes his major from
one college to another within the University shall be
governed by the degree requirements in effect at the
time the change of major becomes effective.
4. At the discretion of the dean, the student will be
required to comply with all changes in the curriculum
made subsequent to the year in which he is enrolled.
Deletions and additions of courses will be of approxi-
mately equal credit SO that no student will have an
overall appreciable increase of total credits required
for graduation.
5. Any first-time college student who entered a junior col-
lege on or after September 1, 1968, can qualify, upon
transfer to the University of Houston, to graduate under
the University of Houston catalogue in effect when he
entered the junior college if he follows the core cur-
riculum provisions of the Coordinating Board. He is
subject to the requirement that if he interrupts his
studies for more than one calendar year at the junior
college or before transfer to the University of Houston,
he must qualify for graduation under the catalogue in
effect when he returns to the junior college or matricu-
lates at the University of Houston.
DEGREE PLAN
The student is responsible for all requirements of the cata-
logue under which he is graduating. Therefore, application
for a degree plan should be made to the dean or departmental
86
UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
adviser no later than the beginning of the junior year. Before
certification for graduation can be made, copies of the stu-
dent's degree plan must be on file in the dean's office and
in the Registrar's Office.
APPLICATION FOR GRADUATION
Degrees are not awarded automatically upon completion of
scholastic requirements. To be considered as a candidate for
a degree, the student must submit an application for gradua-
tion to the Graduation Department of the Registrar's Office.
The graduate student must be approved for candidacy for
the degree before he may file an application for graduation.
Although applications should be filed during the registration
period for the semester in which the student plans to graduate,
they will be accepted as late as October 30 for fall gradua-
tion, March 22 for graduation in the spring convocation, and
June 15 for graduation in the summer convocation. Students
who expect to complete their requirements in the second
summer term and who were not enrolled for the first summer
term must submit their applications for graduation on or
before July 25. Diplomas are mailed to graduates approxi-
mately six weeks after graduation.
CAP AND GOWN
It is the student's responsibility to order and pay rental for
his cap and gown at the University Bookstore before April 15
for the spring convocation or before July 25 for the summer
convocation.
GENERAL REQUIREMENTS FOR A BACHELOR'S DEGREE

30 semester hours more than the minimum necessary for the
degree requiring the fewer number of hours, regardless of
whether the two degrees are awarded simultaneously or are
awarded either before the other. For a third or further bach-
elor's degree, the student must have credit for 30 semester
hours more than the minimum necessary for that previously
or simultaneously awarded bachelor's degree requiring the
greatest number of hours, including in the latter computation,
however, any hours added because of the requirements of this
paragraph.
The general and specific requirements for each degree must
be met. The student must have 30 semester hours of residence
credit earned at the University of Houston for each degree
awarded the student by the University.

undergraduate students who complete their degree require-
ments with exceptionally high scholastic averages will be
eligible for baccalaureate degrees with honors. Those who
have earned a grade point average of 3.75 to 4.0 over all work
attempted will be eligible to be graduated summa cum laude;
a grade point average of 3.50 to 3.74, magna cum laude; and
a grade point average of 3.25 to 3.49, cum laude.
Baccalaureate degree candidates who have earned one or
more grades below C will be ineligible for honors unless they
are recommended for honors by a committee in the college
of their major.
GENERAL INFORMATION
91
Candidates who have completed some portion of their re-
quirements at other collegiate institutions may be awarded
baccalaureate degrees with honors when they meet all of the
aforementioned requirements and in addition complete a
minimum of 60 semester hours at the University of Houston.
If the grade point average on the University of Houston
courses alone is lower than the grade point average earned on
all collegiate work attempted, the average earned at the
University of Houston will be the basis for determining
honors.

Dear Mr. Frieden:
Enclosed is a statement of the Core Curriculum Policy of the
Psychology Department. The Core Curriculum Committee has reviewed
your records according to Section II of the policy statement and
finds that you have completed all of the undergraduate prerequisites
to the core curriculum courses. Therefore, per Section II A, you
should plan to enroll in the core curriculum courses at the appropriate
times following your matriculation at the University. If you have
completed any courses since submitting your application which would
qualify you under Section III C of the policy statement, please
inform us immediately.
Sincerely,
De Sheer

Chairman, Experimental Committee

CORE CURRICULUM POLICY
DEPARTMENT OF PSYCHOLOGY
I. It is the philosophy of the Psychology Department of the University
of Houston that ALL students completing the graduate program of
this Department should have a certain basic training. To this
end it has developed the following "core curriculum." In
addition to the two courses listed below, each individual area of
concentration (i.e., Clinical, Educational, Experimental, and
Industrial) may require its students to take other appropriate
courses in general psychology.
Fall Semester - first year
Credit
Intermediate Statistics
3
Prerequisite: Introductory Statistics
Spring Semester - first year
Experimental Design

Prerequisite: Intermediate statistics
It is expected that, with the exceptions noted below, all enter-
ing graduate students will enroll in and pass with a grade of A or
B the final examination in each core curriculum course at the
first opportunity after entering the University.
II. The Core Curriculum Committee will review the records of students
entering with bachelor's degree to determine whether undergraduate
courses appropriate as preparation for core areas have been
completed.
A. The student who has completed, satisfactorily, an undergraduate
course in a core area will be directed to enroll in the graduate
course.
B. A student found to be deficient in preparation in one or more
of the areas will be so informed and given the opportunity to
remove this deficiency in one of two ways.
1. He may enroll in and pass, satisfactorily, the appropriate
undergraduate course upon matriculation at the University.
In this case the core graduate course enrollment require-
ment will be postponed one year without prejudice to the
student.
2. He may pass, satisfactorily, an undergraduate equivalency
examination. He will be informed of the adequacy of his
CORE CURRICULUM POLICY
2
performance on this examination before the end of the
registration period. This examination will be pre red
and read by the appropriate core curriculum course
instructor. When a student indicates an interest in
this alternative he will be mailed a reading list
appropriate to the course requirements. He must inform
the Department no later than August 22 of his intention
to take the examination. Should he fail this examination,
he will be directed, usually, to enroll in the appropriate
undergraduate course.
III. The Core Curriculum Committee will review the records of students
entering with Master's degrees or with graduate credits to determine
whether graduate courses in the core areas have been completed, and
if not, whether the undergraduate courses appropriate as preparation
for the core areas have been completed.
A. A student who has not completed a graduate course in a core
area but has completed the appropriate undergraduate course
will follow Procedure II. A. above.
B. A student who has completed neither a graduate course in a core
area nor the appropriate undergraduate course will follow
Procedure II. B.
C. A student who has completed a graduate course in a core area
will be so informed and given the opportunity to choose one
of two alternatives.
1. He may enroll in and pass with a grade of A or B the core
course at the University of Houston.
2. He may pass, satisfactorily, a core course equivalency
examination. He will be informed of the adequacy of his
performance on this examination before the end of the
registration period. The examination will be prepared and
read by the appropriate core curriculum course instructor
and at least one additional member of the Psychology
Department faculty.
When a student indicated interest in this alternative,
he will be mailed a reading list appropriate to the course
requirements. He must inform the Department no later than
August 22 of his intention to take the examination. Should
he fail this examination he will be directed to enroll in
the core curriculum course.
IV. If a student fails to complete any of the core courses with a grade
of A or B, he must retake the FINAL examination in the course the
following year. (It should be recognized that the course and
CORE CURRICULUM POLICY
3
examination may change somewhat in content.) Two successive failures
to obtain a grade of A or B, in a core course or on the final exam-
ination of a core course whether by performance on the examination
or by failure to take the examination, may be cause for dismissal.
In such cases, the student's area committee shall recommend to the
faculty whether the student is or is not to be dismissed. If the
student is not dismissed, the area committee, in consultation with
appropriate members of the Core Curriculum Committee, may require
remedial work from the student to satisfy his deficiency.
V. Should an entering student who presents graduate credit in an area
related to a core course elect to take an equivalency examination
in the course and should he fail such an examination, this failure
will NOT be considered as one failure to obtain a grade of A or B
in the course.
VI. At appropriate times the Chairman of the Department will notify
the student by letter of any deficiencies in core courses and of
the successful completion of the core curriculum courses.
VII. Core Course examinations should be completed within one year of
enrollment as a graduate student in psychology at the University
of Houston. The M.A. degree (or master's equivalent) will not
be awarded until core examinations are completed.

200
a. Proceed to the Graduate Table outside Room 122 during the registration
period. (See enclosed Registration Sheet for dates and times.)
b. Arrange to see the Department Chairman in your major field for assignment
of a graduate adviser. At this time the Chairman (or the adviser) will
give you a "Section Request Form" and assist you in completing it. Some
departments require an "Adviser's Code" to also be completed. (The Depart-
ment Chairmen's names and office locations appear under each departmental
listing on the Class Schedule which may be obtained from the Registrar's
Student Records Office, Room 131, Ezekiel W. Cullen Building.)
C. You are now ready to take your "Section Request Form" to the appropriate
area of the Registrar's Office in order to begin your registration
processing. Refer to the enclosed "Registration Information" sheet as to
dates and procedure. Note that this sheet lists one procedure for students
who have attended the University of Houston before either as undergraduate
or graduate students (Former Students); and another for students who have
NEVER attended the University of Houston (New Students).
2. Materials you should have in addition to those enclosed:
+a. a. GRADUATE SCHOOL CATALOG. This gives regulations and pertinent data (note
the calendar of dates) applicable to you during your graduate career and
is available from the Graduate School Office, Room 126. The catalog of
the school year in which you are admitted to the Graduate School should
be retained by you as the regulations in this catalog apply to you through-
out your graduate career unless your work has been interrupted for one full
calendar year. Please note the sections concerning: (1) The entrance
examinations required, (2) your qualifying examination, if required in your
particular major field, and (3) your application for admission to candidacy.
b. GENERAL INFORMATION CATALOG. This gives regulations and helpful information
and is available from the Student Records Office, Room 131.
C. CLASS SCHEDULE. This gives specific course offerings for each particular
semester/term, and the locations and names of the Department Chairmen are
listed at the beginning of each course section. The Class Schedule is also
available from the Student Records Office, Room 131.
3. Catalog information concerning required tests: ALL graduate students are required
to take either the General Aptitude Test of the Graduate Record Examination (GRE)
or the Admission Test for Graduate Study in Business (ATGSB) prior to or during
their first semester of graduate study at the University of Houston.

PARKING AND
TRANSPORTATION
Although the University has no special facilities for inter-
campus transportation for the handicapped, the campus is
flat and presents a minimum of problems for students in
wheelchairs.
Parking for handicapped students is a major consideration
of campus planners. There are "Handicapped Parking"
spaces marked on the parking plan distributed to all students,
and permits to park in these areas will be issued to those
most needing to park near classrooms. Although more
parking space for handicapped students is planned, space
is currently limited to those who are most seriously handi-
capped.

Electives In The Department
Additional courses will be taken as electives in consultation with
and with the approval of the staff in the student's area of specialization.
The broad objectives of these electives will be to:
(1) round out the student's formal training in the associated
content and tool subjects for his area of specialization; and
(2) complete his preparation for demonstrating competence in
two minor areas, one of which may be in another division of Psychology.
Electives Outside The Department
The student'is encouraged, but not required, to take at least six
hours in electives associated, as content or tool subjects, with his
area of specialization. These will be chosen in consultation with and
the approval of the staff in the student's area of specialization.
Some examples include Mathematics, Computer Techniques, Linguistics,
Optometry for Learning and Perception, Neuroanatomy, Autonomic Recording,
Biochemistry for Physiological, Sociology, Anthropology, Computer
Programming for Developmental and Social.
Comprehensives
The student is required to satisfactorily pass comprehensive
examinations in one major and two minor areas before he can formally
proceed with his doctoral dissertation. The requirements for these
comprehensives are as follows:
(1) The student must have satisfactorily completed the Core
Program and his masters or equivalent research before he can take the
comprehensive exams.
(2) The exams will be offered in December and May of each year,
as required, and will normally be taken by the student during his
third year.
(3) The comprehensives will consist of a major exam in one of the
areas of specialization and two minor exams, one of which may be in
another division of Psychology or in a cognate area.
(4) For the major exam, the student will be required to demonstrate
competence to teach and to carry out independent research. For the minor
exam in Psychology, the student will be required to demonstrate competence
to teach at the undergraduate level. For the minor exam in an elective
area, the student will be required to demonstrate competence to utilize
relevant content and tools of the elective in his area of specialization.
(5) The major exam will consist of the following broad issues
relevant to the area of specialization: (a) informational content,
(b) evaluation of empirical findings and theories, (c) quantitative
procedures, and (d) special experimental techniques. It will be
constructed by the appropriate staff in the area of specialization.
(6) The minor exams will be constructed by the appropriate staff
in the area of specialization or in the cognate area. It will consist
of informational content and evaluation of empirical findings and
theories. It would, of course, be advisable for the student, when
planning to take a minor exam in another division or in a cognate area,
to consult with the appropriate staff sufficiently in advance so that
he may take the relevant elective or cognate courses.
(7) Each area of specialization is responsible for constructing
the specific format of the exams; e.g., objective or essay questions,
take-home, etc., as well as their content. General information and a
representative format of the major and minor exams and sample questions
will be made available upon request from the area of specialization.
(8) The student must attempt and complete the comprehensive exams
in two consecutive offerings in any combination. Each exam will be
scored by at least two appropriate staff. If the student does not pass
an exam on his first attempt, he may automatically take it again when
next offered. If the student fails an exam twice. each individual case
will be formally considered by the experimental committee and approuriate
action taken.

Dear Mr. Frieden:
The Social Psychology Faculty has unanimously agreed to accept your
proposal of extending the deadlines for completion of your Doctoral
Degree requirements. Your dissertation requirements must be completed
by December, 1982. No extensions will be granted and failure to meet
this deadline will result in termination from the Program and from the
Department.
We look forward to assisting you in the completion of your dissertation
project.

Dear Dr. Rozelle,
Please accept my apology for this late replay to your letter
of February 25, 1980. As you may know, I have been studying in
Europe this spring and summer, and just returned home this month.
With respect to the question raised by your letter, I be-
lieve the following elaboration of my dilemma and intent is in
order. To begin with, I worked for three years from 1976 through
1979 as Director of Research for a federally funded research and
demonstration project in rehabilitation. In this capacity, I
was responsible for the evaluation of this project. I was convinced
that my work on this project was of the nature and quality to as-
sure me a suitable dissertation topic. In fact, I produced a pro-
posal and assembled a committee to review it. You may recall that
the day before my preliminary orals were scheduled, one member of
that committee recommended to my chairman that the orals not be
held. I was told that this committee member would in no circumstan-
ces approve the study, and therefore there was no reason to have the
proposal reviewed.
This setback was extremely perplexing to me. There is no doubt
that my study was somewhat unorthodox from a traditional academic
perspective. However, I believe it was well within the realm of
valid social psychological inquiry, and I continue to believe that
the results of my study will be of significant and consequential
benefit to the field of rehabilitation.
In any case, following the indefinite postponement of my orals,
I have chosen not to continue to pursue this study as a dissertation
topic. My present proposal for a leave of absence is intended to
given me an opportunity to continue working in the field, and develop

through this experience a new topic for dissertation related research.
Given this opportunity, I would propose to re-enroll in ths Uni-
versity in January, 1982, to complete my dissertation requirement.
I do not believe that academic time should be counted for me during
this leave of absence, and I do not believe I should be required to
pay tuition during this time. Given the desired leave of absence,
I believe I should be able to complete my dissertation requirements
by December 1982.
I hope this information more clearly describes my proposal. If
you need further information or clarification, please do not
hesitate to call me. Thank you for your consideration of this re-
quest.
Sincerely,
Lex Frieden

Dear Lex:
The Social Psychology Committee has discussed your request for
a leave of absence and has voted not to approve your plan in its
present form. We will be most happy to consider a more detailed
request which includes specific dates for deadlines for completing
your dissertation activities. The deadline for dissertation
completion is understood to be final with no adjustments acceptable.
The Committee feels that this more detailed request will facilitate
your progress toward successfully completing the doctoral program
requirements. Please submit your revised request to me with your

DISSERTATION PROCEDURES
Department of Psychology
University of Houston
Adopted December, 1966 (Revised 1976)
1. Composition of Committee: (See E. Doctoral Dissertation in Psychology
Dept. Graduate Handbook)
The dissertation committee shall consist of at least four members: two
members of the Psy. Dept. (including the committee chairman and a member
from & Pay. Program other than the candidate's own program) and one UH
faculty member outside the Psy. Dept. The Dept. Chairman shall be an ex-
officio member of all dissertation committees. Membership shall be subject
to approval of the Dept. Chairman and Dean of the College of Social Sciences.
Members must have PhD degree and be on UH Graduate Faculty,
2. Selection of the committee and the dissertation proposal:
D. When a student has as tentative formulation of his problem, he
selects & committee chairman. In arriving at this tentative
formulation, the student should feel free to discuss the problem
with various members of the faculty without, in any way, com-
mitting himself or the faculty members to committee membership.
b. At the point when the student, working with the committee chair-
man, has achieved clarity about the nature of his problem, he
and the chairman select prospective committee members. The
student should then consult with each prospective committee
member, obtaining expressions of interest (out not commitment)
from them.
C. The student then presents & written proposal to each prospective
member. He should allow the prospective members at least 10
days to consider the proposal and should expect them to have
evaluated it within two weeks. The faculty member may wish to
consult with the student as a part of this evaluation process.
With the return of the proposal, the faculty member will indi-
cate: (1) appropriate comments, and (2) his tentative accept-
ance or rejection. If the proposal is tentatively accepted by
the prospective committee members, the student and his committee
chairman jointly orrange a time for the preliminary oral. This
oral ordinarily will be called no earlier than a week, and no
later than two weeks, from this point in time.
3. Tue Preliminary Oral:
The preliminary oral is an opportunity for the student to defend his
proposal. The committee may then accept, recommend changes, or
reject the proposal. Whether and under what conditions the student
may proceed with his dissertation is detommined at this time. After
the proposal is accepted, a statement to this effect is signed by
the members of the committee and is submitted to the chairman of the
department. The Dean of Social Sciences will then be notified
of the composition of the committee and requested to approve this
committee formally. Also, a copy of the accepted proposal shall
be sent to the department chairman's office to be placed on file
in that office. This level of approval means the committee accepts
the problem and method as proposed.
4. The period of carrying out the study:
During this period, the student should consult with each of the
members of his committee, either to keep them abreast of the work
or to use their aid.
5. The final draft of the dissertation:
The student submits the final draft to his committee when he has
every reason to believe that he has a draft vorthy of being accepted,
both in substance and in form for final presentation. The student
must allow the committee two weeks to read the final draft and can
expect the draft to be read within three weeks. Each member has the
responsibility of informing the student of his tentative approval
(or disapproval) within three weeks. When approval of the draft of
the dissertation is forthcoming, the student and the committee
chairman jointly request the formal oral and arrange a time con-
venient for the student and the committee. The chairman of the
department is notified of the time. The chairman of the department
will announce to the University, through Acta Diurna, the name of
the candidate, title of talk, time, and place. This announcement
will also be made, within the psychology department, to the faculty
and students. See Department of Psychology Graduate Handbook.
6. The final oral:
The candidate will present his work in a form comparable to that
used in professional meetings. The presentation should be 30 to
45 minutes in length. The paper will then be discussed by the com-
mittee and the audience. However, evaluation of the dissertation
is made by the dissertation committee alone. The committee decides
whether to accept, recommend revisions, or reject the dissertation.
When the committee approves of the dissertation, they sign the
dissertation copies, and the Dean is notified by memo. (See Handbook)
7. Final Steps:
The following are rules of the College of Sec Sci, Approval of the
thesis or dissertation proposal must be received from the student's
committee. The final draft must be submitted no later than the
deadlines listed in the current Graduate Studies Bulletin. The
student is required to be continuously enrolled in thesis or disser-
tation courses. An examination, oral and/or written, will be held
upon completion of the thesis or dissertation. The original and
two copies of the approved thesis or dissertation should be sub-
mitted to the College of Social Science no later than 4 p.m. of
the dates listed in the current Graduate Studies Bulletin. Degrees
are not awarded automatically upon completion of scholastic require-
ments. To be considered as & candidate for a degree, the student
must submit an application to the Registrar'a Office by the deadline
listed in the current Graduate Studies Bulletin.

PSYCHOLOGY DEPARTMENT GRADUATE REQUIREMENTS
(September 1976)
The requirements described below include University and Psychology De-
partment graduate training regulations; the content of this document was
unanimously passed at the April 9, 1975 Psychology Faculty Meeting. The
information is also to be found scattered across different catalogs, state-
ments, and minutes. Most of these documents are presented in Appendices
that are available for inspection in the Office of the Coordinator of Gradu-
ate Studies. The appendices are departmental regulations or faculty position
papers and are labeled accordingly. When changes are made in departmental
regulations, the changes, deletions, or additions will be added on separate
pages as amendments to this document.
I. Department Requirements
Graduate training requirements stem from two sources: University rules
and departmental policy and regulations. The University regulations dealing
with grades, credit hours, and time limits are minimum requirements. The
more stringent Psychology Department requirements are presented first.
A. Recording, Implementation, and Enforcement of Requirements
Each student, upon acceptance, will be assigned a faculty adviser by the
relevant Program Director. The faculty advisor may be changed at the request
of either the student or the faculty member. The faculty adviser will have
the primary responsibility for monitoring the student's progress. The student
will be responsible for seeing that his progress and accomplishments are pro-
perly recorded. A minimum of three meetings a year are essential: one meet-
ing before each semester registration period to discuss courses, and a final
meeting in May to prepare the Graduate Student Evaluation Form (annual). The
form will be prepared for all students and will be a precondition for continued
enrollment and registration. It is the student's responsibility to see that:
1. His adviser completes the form
2. The form is signed by the Program Director, Adviser, and student,
then given to the Graduate Secretary.
The Graduate Student Evaluation Form (Annual) is meant to analyze the educa-
tional and intellectual achievement of each student and to track progress to
the award of the Ph.D. (See attached copy of Evaluation Form).
B. Course and Hour Requirements
1. Three required departmental core courses (9 s.h.) are:
PSY 633 - Statistics for Psychology
PSY 668 - Experimental Design
PSY 662 - Psychological Theory
2
2. Hours and Course Distributions
Minimal departmental requirements are 45 s.h. for the M.A. and
72 s.h. for the Ph.D. The 45 hrs. required for the M.A. should be distri-
buted as follows:
Three general departmental core courses
9 s.h.
At least two distribution electives (Fndn's. or equiv.)
6
Four research or applied practica or courses
12
Four required courses in major area
12
Two Master's Thesis courses (or equivalent)
6
TOTAL 45 s.h.
All of these 45 s.h. should be completed during the student's first two years
of graduate training. The three core courses are: PSY 633 (Statistics for
Psychology), PSY 668 (Experimental Design) and PSY 662 (Psychological Theory).
The core courses will be taken during the student's first or second year.
A core committee consisting of the Graduate Coordinator and teachers of core
courses will approve exemptions where a student can demonstrate the appro-
priate competence. Core courses may be repeated but must be passed with
grade of B or higher.
All graduate students are required to take one "Foundations" course, or equiv.,
from each of two areas other than their major area. This would provide 6 s.h.
of exposure to content in the Psychology Department outside of the student's
area of specialization.
At least 27 s.h. (in addition to the 45 s.h. mentioned above) must be
taken as course requirements for the Ph.D. The 27 s.h. are a minimum, and
the program may add considerably more s.h. which will be approved by the
Graduate Coordinating Committee. It is suggested that those 27 s.h. consist
of the following:
Five additional courses (in major area, minor area,
cognates, or electives)
15 s.h.
Four dissertation "courses" (PSY 833 ABCD)
12 s.h.
These 27 s.h., as well as the dissertation itself, would normally be completed
by the fourth (or fifth) year. Graduate students in psychology who are offi-
cially working on a dissertation are required to register for 833 each succeed-
ing semester except when on internship or other form of on-the-job training.
3. Nature of course credits (level, where taken, etc.)
No course credits below the 600-level will satisfy the various course
requirements mentioned above. The Graduate Coordinating Committee may grant
dispensations from this rule when exemptions suggested by program directors
and/or advisers have educational merit (as, for example, in the case of taking
undergraduate courses in other departments to gain needed skills, etc.). The
proper sequence of required or recommended courses other than those mentioned
above are determined by the appropriate program committees.
4. Transfer credits. The student, in consultation with his adviser,
presents to his program for approval all of the courses he has successfully
completed.
C. Master's Thesis or Equivalent
The proper sequence for the thesis is: proposal, actual research,
write-up, oral defense:
3
1. Master's thesis
a) Enrollment in PSY 673 and PSY 674 (6 s.h.)
b) A committee of no less than 3 members; the chairman must be member
of the Psy. Dept., 2nd member from Psy. Dept., 3rd member outside
the Dept. All must have at least a Master's degree and be on the
Graduate or Adjunct Graduate Faculty of the University.
2. Master's Equivalency
a) Enrollment in two sections of PSY 630s
b) A two-member committee, composed of one full-time psychology
faculty
c) Members read research equivalency paper and evaluate it
3. See Appendix A for detailed information on proper M.A. and
equivalent procedures.
D. Comprehensive Examinations
During his/her third year, the student completes the major comprehensive
examination. Students are referred to program documents for information on
the format of the examination for the particular area of specialization. Ap-
pendix B contains comprehensive examination formats available at this printing
for individual programs. Send a memo (sample attached) to the Dean, College of
Social Sciences, stating date of completion of Comprehensive Examinations.
Cognitive Psychology has suggested that part of the comprehensive should
include the statement and defense of an explicitly defined career objective
and a training proposal that is realistic both in its utilization of the con-
tent of the major area and in terms of job availability.
E. Doctoral Dissertation
The proper sequence for the dissertation is proposal, oral defense of
proposal, actual research, write-up, oral defense:
1. The dissertation committee shall consist of at least four members:
a chairman (Psychology), one member selected from a psychology program other
than the candidate's own major program, and one member from outside the Psy-
chology Department. The rest of the committee may be selected either from
the Psychology Department, a University Department other than Psychology,
and/or the Psychological Professional Community. Members must have a Ph.D.
degree and be on the Graduate or Adjunct Graduate Faculty of the University.
2. The committee membership shall be approved by the Graduate Coordinat-
ing Committee prior to notification of the Dean of the College of Social Sciences.
3. A written dissertation proposal and an oral defense of that proposal
are required.
4. A written dissertation (in proper format) and oral defense (public)
are required. The final oral defense of the dissertation will be publicized
as follows:
a) The candidate will circulate a summary of the dissertation (may be
the dissertation abstract) to all Psychology Department graduate
students and faculty.
b) The summary will be distributed no less than one week in advance
of the scheduled orals and will include an open invitation (see
sample memo attached) to attend, stating the time and location of
4
the oral examination.
c) Normally orals will be scheduled in 634 SR.
d) A copy of the dissertation will be available from the program
secretary during the week preceding the orals. (A draft copy
will be sufficient).
F. Continuous Enrollment and Grade Point Average
1. A full course load is defined by the University to be 12 hours per
833 (Nissertation) once they are begun
semester. Continuous enrollment is required in 674 (Thesis) and
2. The Department requires a minimum enrollment of 12 s.h. of graduate
credit per academic year (including summer school) for continued degree
candidacy. Thesis and Dissertation enrollment is considered the equivalent of
full-time enrollment. (Obtain form in Main Ofc. for Thesis & Diss. only)
3. Three grades of C or lower during the course of graduate training
are grounds for automatic dismissal. Grades of I which have not been replaced
by A or B within one calendar year will be considered as F's.
G. Time Limits and Leaves
The Master's degree must be completed in two years. The Ph. D. normally
is expected to be completed in 4 years (or 5 with internship) and must be
completed in 6 years (or 7 years with internship). The Graduate Coordinating
Committee will grant extensions under exceptional circumstances. Leaves of
absence normally will be granted for one semester by the Program Committee;
any leaves longer than one semester will require approval by the Graduate
Coordinating Committee. Unauthorized leaves necessitate competitive readmission.
H. Program Requirements: Specific Courses, Major and Minors
Listings of specific courses (within, as well as outside of, the area
of specialization) may be obtained from the respective programs (See Appendix
F for program material available at time of printing). Requirements for a
major consist of: Departmental core courses, distribution electives, re-
quired courses in that area of specialization, practicum (or equivalent)
credits, a Master's thesis or equivalent, a comprehensive examination, and
a doctoral dissertation. Specific requirements are given in Program documents
(Appendix F). Each program has the option of requiring minor course of study
that may be taken by students in other programs.
I. Teaching
Specific teaching requirements for the various programs will be formu-
lated and coordinated with teaching assignments made by the Department.
Those assignments will be made long enough in advance to allow the student-
teacher to prepare his class lectures adequately. Additionally, priority
for teaching will be given to students which the requisite background and
skills for whom the particular courses taught would be relevant for future
employment.
J. Student Grievance and Appeal Procedures
A rotating Graduate Coordinating Committee grievance subcommittee will
be composed of three persons appointed by the Coordinator, none in the same
5
area as an appellant student. The subcommittee will be chaired by a member
of the Graduate Coordinating Committee and will include a second faculty
member and one graduate student. The subcommittee will deal with two types
of appeals:
1. Automatic Appeals: Whenever the program recommends to the Graduate
Coordinating Committee that a graduate student be dropped from the department,
the case will be automatically reviewed by the appointed subcommittee.
2. Reviews Initiated by Students: If a student has a grievance he will
take the following steps, trying to handle the problem at the lowest level:
a) Talk to the Instructor
b) Then talk to the Program Director
c) Then the Graduate Coordinator
d) Access to the rotating GCC subcommittee will be given to examine
the case
3. The subcommittee will operate as follows in all cases:
a) The program director will be called in and a statement taken from
him as to the Program's view of the basis for failure.
b) The student will be called in.
c) The subcommittee will then make a decision and present its results
to the Graduate Coordinator, the Program, and the student.
K. Applied Masters Program
This report mainly concerns Ph.D. training ; the Applied Master's Program
has its own goals and procedures and demands independent consideration. It is
department policy to integrate the two programs as much as is possible in order
to most efficiently utilize departmental resources.
II. General University Requirements (Compare with Department Requirements)
A. For M.A.
1. According to the University catalog, two plans are possible:
a) Plan I which requires 30 s.h. of courses plus a thesis (6 s.h.)
b) Plan II which requires 36 s.h. of courses with no thesis.
2. Both plans require that the student's major department must approve
any courses below 600-level if they are to be applied to a graduate
degree; both plans may require a final comprehensive examination.
B. For Ph.D.
1. At least one academic year of full-time residence
2. Satisfactory completion of doctoral examinations
3. At least 24 s.h. beyond the M.A. requirements. Since the M.A. re-
quirement involves 30 s.h. plus 6 s.h. of thesis credit, the minimal
University hour requirement for the Ph.D. is 60 s.h.
4. A doctoral dissertation.
C. Members of Masters and Dissertation Committees
1. Must be members of the Graduate Faculty
2. Must have a degree of at least the level being evaluated; i.e.,
persons serving on masters committees must themselves have at least
6
a masters degree, persons serving on dissertation committee must
have Ph. D.
D. Additional Requirements
1. A GPA of 3.0 or greater
2. Fewer than four grades of C or lower
3. One year of full time residence
4. Time Limitation: M.A. must be completed within five years of mat-
riculation; Ph.D. dissertation must be completed within five years
of comprehensive examination. Since comprehensive examinations
typically are taken during the student's third year of graduate
study, this amounts to the requirement to complete the dissertation
within eight years of matriculation.
III. General Information
A. Teaching Assistantships
Teaching assistant assignments are made about two months before the
beginning of each semester. Application forms and information are
available in the main office, 617 SR.
B. Reminders
1. Deadlines occur often. To know when deadlines are nearing, you
should consult the Class Schedules regarding registration, begin-
ning and ending of classes, final examinations. The Graduate
Bulletin has deadlines for applying for graduation, submission of
thesis and dissertation. No Degree Candidacy Application is neces-
sary as of Spring, 1975. Apply for graduation in Graduation Office.
2. Remind your program secretary that a change in grade form should be
submitted upon completion of thesis or dissertation from "In Pro-
gress" to completed.
3. Guides for Preparation of Thesis/Dissertation are available in the
main office.
4. When course work is completed except for Thesis or Dissertation only,
students may be authorized to register for thesis or dissertation
credit only at a special tuition rate. Forms are in main office.
5. Check the graduate student bulletin boards regularly for announce-
ments.
IV. Department and University Forms
Many forms will have to be filled out by each student. Samples of most of
them are included in the Handbook. Most of the necessary forms may be ob-
tained from the Graduate Coordinator's Office. Most memoranda are typed
by the program secretaries. A brief explanation of each follows:
A. Graduate Student Evaluation Form, see pages 9-11, is explained on
page 2 of the Handbook. It is completed at the end of each academic
year during advisement.
B. Appointment of Masters Thesis Committee, p.12. Student fills out
form and is responsible for initials of members and signatures.
C. Memorandum regarding completion of thesis oral examination, p. 13.
(Student should be sure that secretary is informed of completion of
thesis oral examination).
7
D. Memorandum regarding completion of master's equivalency, p. 14.
This is for students completing equivalency rather than thesis.
(Student should be sure that secretary is informed of completion of
equivalency).
E. Petition for Graduate Change of Degree Objective. This form is
needed to change from a Master's Degree Objective to a Doctor of
Philosophy Degree Objective. The student should initiate this form,
have the secretary or adviser fill out A and B, and take to the Grad.
Sec. for signature and forwarding to Dean. Page 15.
F. Memorandum regarding completion of Comprehensive Examinations. P. 16
G. Appointment of Ph.D. Dissertation Committee, p. 17. Student fills
out form and is responsible for initials of members and signatures.
H. Memorandum regarding announcement of Ph.D. dissertation orals, p. 18.
See I, Section E, of Graduate Handbook for additional instructions
regarding distribution and scheduling of announcement.
I. Memorandum regarding completion of Ph.D. dissertation oral examina-
tion, p. 19. (Student should be sure that secretary is informed of
completion of dissertation oral examination).
J. Graduate School Petition, p. 20. This form is initiated by the
student for such reasons as extending time limit, reinstatement in
Graduate School, and others.
K. Student's Record of Completion of Requirements toward Graduation
with Ph.D. This form is the student's own record and proof of com-
pletion of each requirement. Do not lose it. You may find it very
useful in the event any question arises at a later date, p. 21-22.
