| As you begin
your college career at the University of Memphis, new experiences,
new people, different ways of viewing the world all await. You
may have your journey all mapped out, or you may want to explore
some of the bends in the road ahead that can take you to places
about which you may now know relatively little. Either way,
you begin your university experience with various GREAT EXPECTATIONS.
At the U of M, you can EXPECT A FIRST-CLASS LEARNING ENVIRONMENT. Our university is proud to have 24 Chairs
of Excellence. These are the top faculty in their individual fields and the University of Memphis has more Chairs
of Excellence than any other campus in the state. Complementing a low student-to-faculty ratio is the opportunity
for various internship experiences outside the classroom with some of the premier firms headquartered in the Memphis
area. And our state-of-the-art library provides students with more than a million volumes as well as on-line access
to resource materials the world over.
You can always EXPECT A GREAT TIME at the University of Memphis. We are located on a lush, tree-lined campus
in a beautiful residential area of East Memphis, convenient to shopping malls, theaters, dining establishments,
fine arts and sports programs, as well as to venues that makes our city special - a great musical heritage. From
blues to rock to classical, you can find musical entertainment abounding on our campus and in our great city.
In such a diverse city, EXPECT A DIVERSE CAMPUS. Our students come from all 50 states, over 75 foreign countries
and all walks of life. And there are more than 150 different student organizations from which to choose, as well
as 22 fraternities and sororities. Organizations are tailored to the social and academic interests of individuals
and offer not only outlets for social interaction but also for academic special interests and leadership opportunities.
Diverse as we are, we unite behind common goals and values that will serve our students well once they leave our
halls.
And you can EXPECT A GREAT EDUCATION. Through our six colleges and four schools, we offer bachelor's, master's,
doctoral, education specialist and law degrees in a wide range of majors and concentrations.
The University of Memphis - a place where GREAT EXPECTATIONS
are realized every day. |
