Examples of great places
Arts and Letters
We have an entire complex dedicated to the fine arts. Brick City is four buildings with galleries, studios and classrooms. We call it an urban oasis of creativity! If words are your passion, you may study almost any language you want — even ones rarely found at other universities — thanks to our Foreign Language Institute.
Education
We have a K-12 laboratory school located on our campus, as well as a counseling center, child development center and play therapy institute. This gives you unique opportunities to interact with children, families and communities.
Natural and Applied Sciences
We have an astronomy observatory, a field station at a lake and an entire innovation center dedicated to high-tech research. You can learn to use equipment such as X-ray crystallography instruments, an ion implanter, a recording spectrophotometer and a DNA sequencer. We also have an herbarium with more than 100,000 specimens.
Business
Our College of Business has a national reputation, and we want facilities to match. We recently renovated Glass Hall to create the best possible environment for business students. You will find everything from an executive-style boardroom and spaces for corporate recruiters to an area that simulates the New York Stock Exchange trading floor.
Health and Human Services
Our resources include humanpatient simulators, an electron microscopy suite, metabolic measurement systems, biomedical research laboratories, and equipment for audiology, speechlanguage, voice and swallowing assessments.
Humanities and Public Affairs
All classrooms in beautiful, airy Strong Hall are equipped with the latest instructional technology. We also have special collections and archives around campus to allow you to delve deeply into research endeavors. For example, Meyer Library has Missouri’s only United Nations document depository.
Agriculture
We have a cattle operation with the largest Hereford herd associated with a U.S. university, a 250-acre plot with a beefalo herd and another plot with acres of untouched timber. We have an arena for horses and cattle, a greenhouse, laboratories dedicated to topics such as animal nutrition and fruit genomes, and classrooms that accommodate liveanimal demonstrations.
