UMM - A great opportunity for international students
|
A Strong Sense of Community
There are a wide variety of activities and clubs to get involved in while you are on campus. The International Student Organization is supported by both the Center for International Programs and the Multi-Ethnic Student Union and is a great place to start getting involved. On campus housing offers both dormitories and apartments. Living on campus allows you to meet life-long friends and get involved in activities from intramural basketball to cooking egg rolls with the Asian Student Association to mentoring elementary school students. Cultural opportunities abound as well - spend an evening enjoying jazz, watch the latest Hollywood blockbuster at the local movie theater or hang out with friends.
Diverse Course Offering
Have a major course of study in mind? No idea at all? UMM faculty and advising staff offer you support and guidance to help you find the right major or majors for you. Take courses on African Cinema, learn Portuguese, and be challenged in a chemistry class all in one semester. Finding a subject that interests you and being challenged from a variety of disciplines will give you a broad understanding of your major, whichever one you may choose.

Success after UMM
UMM Students go on to some of the best medical, law, and graduate schools in the country. Approximately 45% of UMM students are attending some form of post-graduate education within three years of graduation at places like Harvard University - International Education Policy, Northwestern University - Law, and Duke University - Biology, just to name a few. UMM students also compete on the international market and many go on to the Peace Corps, spend a year as a Fulbright Scholar, or work internationally. The faculty support and the opportunities for undergraduate research are just a few of the reasons our graduates have found success. |
