Student Profiles
Dear Prospective student: 
Our assumption is that you are reading this because you have been thinking about teaching or are interested in research and can envision yourself either as a college level professor or a researcher connected to a university or agency. If you are interested in either of these paths, we are glad to learn of your interest in doctoral work at our College. We believe we have a strong and rigorous program that will challenge you in a good way –to help you develop critical thinking skills, to learn to think and write like a scholar. We will give you actual experience teaching students. In short, we’ll do our part to well-prepare you
We encourage you to visit the University, to meet some of our current students, to tour the library, perhaps to observe a doctoral student class or a doctoral student teaching a class. I’ll be glad to talk with you by phone (859-257-6659) or will correspond with you by email (droyse@uky.edu).
UK is a growing and thriving university with strong medical and law schools and is situated within a medium-sized city with fine restaurants and many cultural activities. Lexington is a friendly community and a good place to live –whether you are an individual, in a relationship, or raising a family.
Come look us over, talk to me or other faculty about your interests and what you would like to get from a Ph.D. program. Let’s see if it is a good fit. (Note: by going to the listing of faculty and clicking on each picture, you can learn more about their research interests, publications, and specializations). Hope to talk with you soon!
Sincerely,
David Royse, Ph.D., Director
