Academics
UVM offers an exceptional learning experience. With seven undergraduate colleges and schools, a graduate college, a medical school, an honors college, continuing education and extension programs, UVM's academic programs offer breadth, depth and variety — and on an intimate scale. UVM is a close-knit community of scholars, scientists and artists (average undergraduate class size: 23), but its intimate culture is invigorated by the resources of a premier research university.
Honors programs
UVM Honors College: Outstanding undergraduate students from across campus in an honors residency with special seminars and co-curricular activities. Learn more on the Honors College website.
Departmental, national and university honors: Many celebrated distinctions exist. Read more in the Catalogue, or consult your college.
A tradition of active, hands-on learning
The practical application of knowledge enhances the UVM academic experience by deepening classroom lessons. Whether through research (more than $133 million in grant awards for 2009), fieldwork, service-learning, or internships and co-ops, few universities match the level of experiential learning offered to UVM students.
