Candidates interested in learning yoga, music and musical instruments like Tabala, Harmonium, etc are provided with opportunities to learn, and master them in Amrita Campuses. Those interested in social and philanthropic services will relish their life here, where they encounter innumerous opportunities to quench their thirst for selfless service. This ranking is based on a sustainability audit focusing on campus greenery, cleanliness and maintenance, toilet adequacy in campus, tree planting and community outreach in promoting Swachh culture.
Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham has always given paramount importance to research. It has links with 20 US universities for research into areas such as robotics and cyber security, and further associations with European and Japanese institutions. Over the years, Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham has developed working relationship with many of the best universities in the world.
Amrita collaborates with many renowned foreign universities in many diverse fields of knowledge like engineering, security, communication, medicine and social sciences. These collaborations are effective in deepening the knowledge and skills of both students and faculty. Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham also holds the No. The student will be fully admitted to the Graduate School after the interdisciplinary program proposal is approved.
Faculty may propose interdisciplinary programs of study that will form the basis for suitable areas of specialization to train students. The specialization must meet the criteria outlined above in terms of minimum credit hours and the distribution of coursework across disciplinary lines.
Proposed areas of specialization will be subject to approval by the following academic bodies:. The development of an interdisciplinary specialization is the responsibility of the faculty, but the Associate Dean for Interdisciplinary Studies will provide assistance and guidance.
Participating faculty must have the consent of their departmental Chair or Dean to participate in an Interdisciplinary specialization. Students must choose a primary mentor, but may have co-mentors.
Requests for further information or assistance should be addressed to:. Applicants for interdisciplinary doctoral programs must present complete admission credentials and have an approved program of study in order to be formally admitted by the Graduate School. In addition to established Graduate School policies and requirements, each Interdisciplinary PhD Program will be required to meet specific criteria as follows:.
For an Interdisciplinary specialization, a core of faculty may propose a curriculum that will form the basis for an area of focus. The University of Louisville is committed to and will provide equality of educational and employment opportunity for all persons regardless of race, sex, age, color, national origin, ethnicity, creed, religion, disability, genetic information, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity and expression, marital status, pregnancy or veteran status.
Every effort has been made to make the catalog accurate as of the date of publication. However, the University of Louisville reserves the right to change programs of study, academic policies, academic requirements, fees, course information, procedures for the confirmation of degrees, or the announced academic calendar and related deadlines without prior notice. We have also decided to focus in the first instance on the United States. We anticipate adding entries for Canadian programs in the very near future, and hope thereafter to survey other countries.
We will also explore the possibility of adding certain types of Masters degree programs to our Directory. What, though of semi- professional programs housed — or that could be housed — within Colleges of Arts and Science? While we have striven for consistency, it is likely that in some cases a program that is offered in a professional school is excluded even though the same program in an Arts or Science college would be included.
We have excluded all agricultural programs including food science , for these are predominantly professional in nature. We have included Materials Science and related fields such as ceramics for this is often offered in Colleges of Science. We have also included Exercise Science, even though generally offered in Colleges of Physical Education.
Research of a conceptual nature is undoubtedly possible in other programs, especially some of those that embrace philosophy, sociology, or history, or those that allow students to suggest their own program.
Bill Newell has recently noted that interdisciplinarity can involve the integration not only of disciplines but of academic coursework with student services, residential life, and work experiences. A few of our PhD programs make explicit reference to some sort of work or life component; these programs are likely to be very integrative.
We have sought evidence of integration. That is, it is not enough that a program draws on more than one discipline; there must be a conscious effort to integrate disciplinary perspectives. It is, however, necessary that a program draw significantly upon more than one discipline: we have not included programs that integrate insights from sub-disciplines within the same discipline, though we appreciate that these are often truly integrative.
This directory was developed by first compiling a list of all graduate programs and then removing those that were either clearly disciplinary or professional [see Scope of this Directory] in nature or insufficiently integrative. Programs jointly administered by departments representing different disciplines were almost always included, as were programs administered by departments of a genuinely interdisciplinary nature. We have not included interdisciplinary specializations available within disciplinary degree programs.
Most PhD programs allow students some scope for choosing elective courses outside of their core discipline.
We have included a few interdisciplinary programs that can only be pursued in conjunction with a disciplinary PhD, where the degree of interdisciplinarity is great; we have made note of this restriction where applicable. Having defined interdisciplinarity in terms of disciplines, we must then have a list of disciplines in mind.
