When Ben and Jerry first went into the ice cream business, they made their 'homemade' ice cream with an ice cream base produced by the UVM dairy plant.

Academics

With seven undergraduate colleges and schools, a graduate college, a medical school, an honors college, continuing education and extension programs, UVM's academic programs offer breadth, depth and variety — and on an intimate scale. UVM is a close-knit community of scholars (average undergraduate class size: 29), but its intimate culture is invigorated by the resources of a major research university.

Active, hands-on learning

The practical application of knowledge enhances the UVM academic experience. Whether through research (more than $122 million in grant awards for 2008), fieldwork, service-learning, or internships and co-ops, few universities match the level of experiential learning offered to UVM students.
