Mission Statement
The University of Missouri-St. Louis is the land-grant research
institution committed to meeting the diverse needs in the
state's largest metropolitan community. It educates traditional
and nontraditional students in undergraduate, graduate, and
professional programs so that they may provide leadership
in health professions, liberal and fine arts, science and
technology, and metropolitan affairs such as business, education,
and public policy. University research advances knowledge
in all areas, and, through outreach and public service, assists
in solving, in particular, problems of the St. Louis region.
Academic programs are enriched through advanced technologies
and partnerships that link the University of Missouri-St.
Louis to institutions and businesses locally, regionally,
nationally, and internationally. Its special commitment to
partnership provides UM-St. Louis with a leadership responsibility
among public educational and cultural institutions in improving
the region's quality of life, while its relations with two-
and four-year colleges and universities in the St. Louis region
promote seamless educational opportunities.
