A Welcome from Provost and
Senior Vice President, Jane E. Knodell

I am pleased to welcome you to The University of Vermont. UVM is an exceptional academic community in a setting so glorious it is certain to inspire your intellectual, creative, and civic pursuits.

As the nation’s smallest land-grant university with a college of medicine, the University of Vermont offers all the advantages of a small undergraduate college as well as those of a major research university. This unique blend offers undergraduates unparalleled learning opportunities – in classrooms, in laboratories, in studios, on lakeshores and beyond – with professors who are highly active in the production and dissemination of knowledge.

At UVM, our remarkably talented and dedicated faculty and students challenge each other to grow and learn as partners in scholarly endeavors. Our faculty and students are passionately engaged in understanding and solving the pressing economic, environmental, and social problems of our time. Many of these problems relate to our environmental, social, and personal health—areas in which the University’s research and teaching is preeminent.

Like Vermont itself, UVM is renowned for its natural beauty, human scale, spirit of public service and common cause, and commitment to independent thinking and self-determination. I invite you to use this website to get to know us better. Then, I hope you’ll visit so we can get to know you.
