Founded in 1925, the University of Miami, fondly known as “the U,” was South Florida’s first university. Today we are a nationally recognized research university with five campuses, 11 schools, and approximately $325 million in research activity each year. University faculty are actively engaged in research, scholarship and creative activities that span the biomedical and clinical sciences, engineering, education, psychology, marine and atmospheric sciences, ethics, the humanities, arts, music, marketing, business, and politics.
