We are committed to excellence in teaching, learning, research and scholarship, as well as access, affordability and impact. Shaped by a history of interaction with business, government, and industry of the region, the University of Michigan-Dearborn has developed into a comprehensive university offering undergraduate in arts and sciences, education, engineering and computer science, and management.
Founded on more than 200 beautiful acres of the original Henry Ford Estate, UM-Dearborn was forged in a community of working people with the global economy in mind.
We offer a transformative education reflective of University of Michigan acclaim and rooted in an ongoing commitment to the well-being of metropolitan Detroit.
