University Of Kentucky

The University of Kentucky is a public land-grant research university in Lexington, Kentucky.   Founded in 1865 by John Bryan Bowman as the Agricultural and Mechanical College of Kentucky, the university is one of the state's two land-grant universities.   It is the institution with the highest enrollment in the state, with over 32,000 students.   The institution comprises 16 colleges, a graduate school, 93 undergraduate programs, 99 master programs, 66 doctoral programs, and 4 professional programs.   The University of Kentucky has seven libraries on campus.   The largest is the William T. Young Library, a federal depository that hosts subjects related to social sciences, humanities, and life sciences collections.   Since 1997, the university has focused expenditures increasingly on research, following a compact formed by the Kentucky General Assembly.   The directive mandated that the university become a Top 20 public research institution, in terms of an overall ranking to be determined by the university itself.   Two alumni from the university have won Nobel Prizes.
