Founded in 1850, the University of Utah is the state’s public flagship
institution and top-tier research university. It is Utah’s oldest institution of higher education, and The Spencer Fox Eccles School of
Medicine at the University of Utah is Utah’s first medical school. The university provides its more than 32,000 students opportunities to
grow with over 80 undergraduate majors to choose from, and almost as many minors and certificates. With a motto of Imagine, then
Do, the university encourages all learners to be active participants in the educational process and to believe that all things are
possible. An institution on the rise, Utah Athletics was invited to join the Big-12 due to both its sporting prowess and the university’s
strong academic and scientific research achievements. It also boasts the lowest tuition among its Big-12 and Big-10 public peers and the
lowest student-to-faculty ratio (18:1) of Utah public institutions. With an endowment of approximately $1.32 billion, there is a strong
network of alumni and friends that care deeply about the institution and its continued success.
The University of Utah is classified
by the Carnegie Foundation among the 137 research universities with the “highest research activity” in the nation. The University of Utah is
a member of the prestigious Association of American Universities, which for more than 100 years has recognized the most outstanding academic
institutions in the nation. U.S. News and World Report ranks dozens of the university’s programs—from computer science to
psychology to physics to dance—in the top 100 in the nation. It has also been ranked first for best online college for bachelor’s
degree programs, best online college for master’s degree programs, and best online for doctoral degree programs by
OnlineColleges.com.
As an institution with a strong business school, The Princeton Review has named the university
among the top 25 for online M.B.A. programs and entrepreneurship. The University of Utah is also a great place to work, having been ranked
third amongst America’s best employers for women by Forbes.

is a highly advanced university health system. The faculty practice and students learn among five hospitals and 12 community clinics; a
1,800-member University of Utah Medical Group; a highly-ranked research enterprise encompassing six schools and colleges, including the

health plan; one of the nation’s largest reference laboratories, ARUP Laboratories; and numerous institutes and centers reflecting
