The University of Maine offers the extensive academic opportunities you’d expect from a major research university with the close-knit feel of a small college. As Maine’s flagship university, UMaine offers the state’s most comprehensive academic experience, with more than 90 undergraduate majors and academic programs, 75 master’s programs and 30 doctoral programs. All majors benefit from a firm foundation in the liberal arts. Top students are invited to join UMaine’s Honors College, one of the country’s oldest honors programs.
The University of Maine is one of the National Science Foundation’s top 100 research universities, and our facilities and faculty have an international reputation for excellence. Among the highlights are the Climate Change Institute, which has been featured on “60 Minutes,” the Laboratory for Surface Science and Technology, which is a hub for cutting-edge sensor and nanotechnology research, and the Advanced Structures & Composites Center, which is leading the nation in deepwater offshore wind energy development.
UMaine students have extraordinary opportunities to gain real-world experience. SPIFFY, our student investment club, manages a $1.6 real-money portfolio. Wildlife ecology majors learn about bear behavior by going out and tagging cubs. Engineering majors take advantage of co-ops and internships that often lead to employment after graduation. Education majors take advantage of urban, rural and international student-teaching opportunities.
