Brief Statement about the University
Nationally recognized as one of the most outstanding undergraduate
institutions, Miami University is a public university located in
Oxford, Ohio. With a student body of 16,000, Miami effectively
combines a wide range of strong academic programs with the personal
attention ordinarily found only at much smaller institutions. Our
focus on personal attention is enhanced through the study in selected
disciplines by graduate students, who along with undergrads,
participate with faculty in significant research and scholarship
activities. Miami offers vibrant residential and community-based
programs involving students in life-enhancing activities that build
leadership and develop citizenship, character, and lifelong
friendships. Miami also offers a wide variety of opportunities for
students and faculty to explore diversity and inclusion in the context
of courses, programs, and experiences across the academic units and in
the social dimensions of the campus environment.
