The University of Missouri-Columbia, also known as Mizzou, is the flagship institution of the University of Missouri System and the largest university in the state. Founded in 1839, it was the first public university west of the Mississippi River and holds the distinction of being one of only six public universities in the U.S. to have a medical school, veterinary medicine college, and a law school on one campus. Located in Columbia, Missouri, Mizzou offers a wide range of academic programs through its 13 schools and colleges, encompassing diverse fields such as journalism, business, engineering, and health professions. The university is renowned for its strong research emphasis, evident in its membership in the Association of American Universities (AAU), a collective of leading research universities in North America. Mizzou’s vibrant campus life is bolstered by numerous student organizations, Greek life, and athletic events, with its sports teams competing in the NCAA Division I Southeastern Conference. The campus is also noted for its beautiful layout and the iconic Columns, remnants of the original Academic Hall that burned down in 1892, serving as a historic symbol of the university.
