I.D   Schools and Faculties of the University

Yale considers itself to have 12 professional schools within the University. Ten of these schools have formal governance and faculty appointment procedures and have the authority to award degrees by recommendation of the Dean of the School. The two remaining schools -- Public Health and Engineering & Applied Science -- do not have the authority to appoint faculty, as they remain a division of the Schools of Medicine and the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, respectively. They do, however, have a Dean appointed by the President and approved by the Yale Corporation, who oversees development and administrative matters within the school.

Degrees and courses of study in the University are offered in the twelve schools listed here with the date they were founded: Yale College (1701); School of Medicine (1813); Divinity School (1822); Law School (1824); School of Art (1865); Graduate School of Arts and Sciences (1892); School of Music (1894); School of Forestry & Environmental Studies (1900); School of Nursing (1923); School of Drama (1955); School of Architecture (1972); School of Management (1974). Each school has its own dean, faculty, and board of permanent officers or other governing body, as approved by the Yale Corporation. The faculties of Yale College and the Graduate School constitute the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, which is under the direction of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences Executive Committee, composed of the President, the Provost, the Dean of Yale College, the Dean of the Graduate School, and the Dean of the School of Engineering & Applied Science. Subject to the overall authority of the Corporation, on recommendation by the President or Provost, the faculty of each school, acting through such committees and procedures as it may adopt, has the power to determine the school's educational policies. In the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, the full professors of that faculty meet together for the purpose of acting on appointments, and that meeting is referred to as the meeting of the Joint Boards of Permanent Officers of Yale College and the Graduate School. In each of the professional schools, the full professors on permanent appointment, as well as, ex officiis, the dean of the school and the President and Provost, constitute the board of permanent officers except where the appointment structure of a school requires a different governing body, as approved by the Corporation.
