The University of Maine is a public research university and the flagship school for the statewide University of Maine System. Established in 1865, the campus—located north of Bangor on Marsh Island, between the Penobscot and Stillwater Rivers—comprises 660 acres of green, unspoiled, small-town beauty. With 11,000 students, the university is the largest school is the state, and its only research institution.
Unsurprisingly, the on-campus library is also the largest library in Maine. Despite its relatively large size, the university takes pride in offering a true liberal arts experience. It is also the campuswith the oldest LGBT advocacy and social organizations in the state, and one of the oldest in the country.
The University of Maine is divided into six Schools: Business, Policy and Health, Education and Human Development, Engineering, Liberal Arts and Natural Sciences, and Agriculture. Across these schools there are 90 undergraduate majors, 40 master’s programs, and 30 doctoral programs.
