Northern Michigan University
United States
University Attributes:
The University: A four-year, public, coeducational university founded in 1899, we offer learning opportunities to approximately 8,100 undergraduate and graduate students. Each incoming student is equipped with an IBM Thinkpad © as part of tuition and fees. Location: NMU is located in an environment unrivaled by any other, on the south shore of Lake Superior in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Marquette, a town with breathtaking vistas, has 23,000 lucky residents. Campus: Our campus is wired to state-of-the-art technology and the internet. We're large enough to offer scenic spaces and 50 quality facilities, such as: nine computer labs; a learning resource center; a theatre; a Headstart classroom; a speech and hearing clinic; a student art gallery; a university museum; two on-campus radio stations; a public TV station; an observatory; an ice rink; a swimming pool; a rock-climbing wall; a diving tank; the Jacobetti Center for technical programs; an all-events center; and the Superior Dome, an 8,000 seat stadium (the largest wooden dome in the world). But, we're still small enough to keep everything within walking distance (which is especially nice in the winter). Faculty: NMU has talented faculty members, 80 percent of whom hold doctorates or the highest degrees in their fields, and a low student-faculty ratio of 20-to-1. Our average class size is 23, our average lab size is 16, and our average seminar size is 10. Of all entry-level courses, 93 percent are taught by career faculty.
