University of Oregon

UO

Nestled in the lush Willamette Valley, with an easy drive to both the Pacific Ocean and the Cascade Mountains, the University of Oregon is renowned for its research prowess and commitment to teaching. We're a member of the Association of American Universities (AAU) meaning we're one of the top 36 public research universities in the nation. We're one of two AAU members in the Pacific Northwest, and the only one in Oregon. 

Also, diversity at the University of Oregon is more than numbers and percentages. It’s about communities and individuals: students, professors, and staff members, with unique identities, experiences, and perspectives. The University of Oregon is one of the top 20 public universities for graduating underrepresented students and one of the top 10 trans-friendly colleges and universities.

• College of Arts and Sciences
