Ph.D students at the Graduate Center for Vision Research (GCVR) complete
80 semester-hr credits of proseminars, tutorials, colloquia, and research.
 A special feature of the GCVR is the utilization of small discussion
group Cambridge University style tutorials.  After being admitted in the
fall semester, students rotate through two research labs, at the end of
which a graduate advisor is selected.  Annual student oral presentations
are made each May at a Schnurmacher Institute for Vision Research
colloquium.  Additional requirements include an NRSA style
pre-dissertation research proposal due end of the 2nd year, an oral
specialty exam, and a dissertation defense.  Intensive training in a
selected area of research leads to the required Ph.D. dissertation. 
	The GCVR is devoted to developing outstanding basic and applied vision
researchers.  The Center hosts VisioNYC, a quarterly conference of the top
vision scientists in the metropolitan New York area, and is also a member
of the SUNY Eye Institute (SEI), a consortium among visions scientists
located at a number of different SUNY member institutions. The GCVR is
housed at the SUNY, State College of Optometry in midtown Manhattan across
the street from the Bryant Park and the New York Public Library.
