Director's Message
Welcome to the Graduate Studies Office Web Page!
On this page you will find general, as well as
specific, information on graduate studies at the University of Puerto Rico at Mayaguez,
which includes the
on-line application process as well as information on entrance
requirements, academic programs, registration fees, cost of
living, options for financial assistance and contacts
to obtain additional information. If you are already a
graduate student at UPRM, you will find information
and forms on this page that you will need to reference
at some point during the course of your studies to
complete your master’s or doctoral degree.
By clicking the link “General Information”, the
section on “37 Graduate Programs at UPRM” will take
you to a video outlining the departments that offer
master’s or doctoral programs at the University of
Puerto Rico at Mayaguez.
The
Office of Graduate Studies counts on a
dedicated team
of members who can
be contacted to answer your specific questions. Our
goal is to simplify
procedures to the extent possible within the existing
regulations. For
example, some of the policy changes that we implemented (see
Memos of OEG under Resources and Documents) during
this year are:
-
Discontinued the payment of admission fees for
deferred cases.
-
Allowed
eligible graduate students with assistantships to be
also able to
work on wages on campus within applicable regulations
of the UPRM Senate and the U.S. Immigration Service.
-
Created
a graduate student organization
AEGRUM
for the
first time at the campus level for better
communication, although some revitalization is
necessary.
-
Initiated the formal process to transition from the
current online Enroll
Management Technology (EMT) to an improved
system, namely Apply Yourself (AY) to be effective
January 2009. However, until the time AY can
officially be implemented, EMT will continue to be
used for January 2009 admissions.
-
Appointment of an Associate Director (who will
specifically be involved with admissions-related
matters) effective August 4, 2008.
We trust this information will help you plan your
academic and professional future. If you
have any questions, pleased send us an email at
egraduados@uprm.edu.
