Founded in 1871, the University of Central Missouri is one of the oldest universities in Missouri. We have a rich educational heritage of building lifelong learners dedicated to service. Over the years, UCM has gone through a variety of name changes, each one reflecting the changed nature of the institution. Founded as Normal School No. 2, it later became known as Warrensburg Teachers College.
Statistics recently released by the Missouri Department of Higher Education (MDHE) show that UCM’s degree completion rate per full-time equivalent (FTE) is the highest among all of Missouri’s public universities and more than double the state benchmark.
Welcome to the Office of Undergraduate Research! Our goal is twofold: (1) to promote undergraduate research and creative activities on campus as highlighted by the annual Scholars Symposium and Creative Achievement Day and (2) to serve The Honors College, particularly through the guidance of the Honors Project.
One of the biggest reasons you chose the University of Central Missouri is because you knew UCM would prepare you for your future. In fact, 96% of our graduates say their academic program prepared them for success.
UCM also has a 94% first destination success rate, which means our graduates are either working, going to graduate school, serving in the military, or participating in a volunteer or service program.
The Career Services Center is an integral part of that preparation. Here you can explore internship and career opportunities, strengthen your job search skills and build important connections for your future.

Eu fiz licenciatura em Direito na Universidade Eduardo Mondlane (Mocambique), Mestrado e Doutoramento na Faculdade de Direito da Universidade Catolica de Moçambique
I am very glad to be a student of Maria Curie - Skłodowska University, because I got a lot of opportunities to improve myself. The environment is pretty international and being a part of it feels incredible. In general, Lublin - the city university located in - is very "student" one, a "young" one. You can see a lot of international, Erasmus students living their life here and enjoying it.
I was a pleasure being a Mule. I have great experience full of great teachers and people that care about me.
