Transcript | Graduate School DEAN R. BALFOUR DANIELS This year a Ph.D. in mathematics was awarded at the University of Houston for the first time. This degree joins nine other doctorates and the Dean of the Graduate School, Dr. R. Balfour Daniels, explains that other such Ph.D. programs may be approved in the near future. Dean Daniels, who has headed the Graduate School since 1958, says that "the entrance standards have been raised recently and all entering students are now required to take a graduate record examination." In addition to this aptitude examination, there are advanced tests that may be taken later in various subjects to qualify individual for doctoral study. Progress in the Graduate School is evidenced by the additional federal scholarships and traineeships which have been given to the School this year by the National Science Foundation and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. 130 |
