A Message from UNLV’S Executive Vice President and Provost


 

Welcome to the Graduate College at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV). Whether you are an ongoing student or just exploring our offerings, you will find a university on the move that is constantly building graduate programs for today’s world.  Because we serve a large, dynamic (and unique) metropolitan area, we offer a wide range of professional and master’s degrees for the professional looking to improve their career prospects. We are also a significant research university with a range of Ph.D. programs in research intensive areas.  I am sure you will find our accomplished faculty poised to help you achieve your goals, whether it is as an effective researcher or a developing professional.

UNLV is currently pursuing Carnegie Research / Very High status as measured by the Carnegie Foundation.  This effort will materially improve our graduate programs and the scope, complexity, and prominence of research at UNLV.   The result of this pursuit, which we call our Path to Tier One, will be a more engaged university that better serves our students, our community and our state.  Over the next few years we expect the energy on the campus to grow in proportion to our investments in faculty positions, facilities, and student support.  We are excited you have considered being a part of the UNLV family in this exciting time.  We are sure you will notice the difference that this effort will make on our campus.  

Whether you are continuing your studies at UNLV or are new to our campus we welcome you and we want your experience with us to be productive, challenging and enjoyable.  Best of luck with your academic pursuits.
