UNC Background
Our UniversityFounded in 1889, as the State Normal School of
Colorado and tucked between the Rocky Mountains and Colorado's
stunning high plains, the University of Northern Colorado has grown
from its roots as a teacher's college into an institution with
international draw and status.
UNC is a public doctoral research university that strives to
cultivate the unique potential of each of its approximately 9,000
students and is positioned to advance knowledge through discovery
because of its just-right size, expert faculty and tradition of
research and hands-on learning. By immersing students in innovative
teaching and research methods in the classroom and in the field,
UNC provides its students with an exceptional educational
experience. UNC's talented and dedicated faculty are housed in its
five colleges: Education and Behavioral Sciences; Humanities and
Social Sciences; Kenneth W. Monfort College of Business; Natural
and Health Sciences; and Performing and Visual Arts.Acclaimed for
its expertise in a broad array of academic disciplines, UNC offers
more than 100 undergraduate programs and 120 graduate programs on
campus, off campus and online. Undergraduate students study in a
liberal arts tradition that supports them in exploring broadly,
making connections, thinking critically, and using what they learn
to make a difference in the world around them. UNC also offers more
than 60 extended campus programs throughout the state and online,
meeting an increasing demand among adult learners and working
students in industry-relevant disciplines. Of UNC's 120 graduate
programs, almost half are taught at satellite locations or online.
Research, scholarship, and creative works are essential components
of academic life for both faculty and students at UNC. Many
undergraduate degree programs require a research experience and
most graduate programs require a thesis, capstone project, or
dissertation. UNC faculty purposefully connect research and
teaching by bringing what they learn from their research into the
courses they teach and by inviting students to join their work.
Faculty and student work on research, scholarship, and creative
works focuses on knowledge creation as well as the application of
knowledge to solve real world problems. Surveys of current and
former students show that they value these relationships and see
them as one of the primary benefits of attending UNC.
There is no typical UNC student. UNC prides itself on being a
university where students do not have to conform in order to
belong. Whatever their unique talents may be, UNC helps students
reach their fullest potential. The university prepares students not
only to have successful careers, but also to lead fulfilling lives,
engage in intelligent public discourse, participate in government,
and thrive in a changing, global world. UNC has a long history of
serving students who are often underrepresented at research
universities. More than 40% of UNC undergraduates are the first in
their family to go to college, one third are underrepresented
minorities, and more than one-quarter are eligible for federal
need-based financial aid.
Linked to our community since we were founded in 1889, UNC is an
important part of the Greeley community and works to actively
foster a collaborative and mutually beneficial relationship with
our city and its residents. Greeley is a warm and welcoming place
and a location we are proud to call our home. Recently ranked as
the fourth fastest growing Metropolitan Statistical Area in the
United States, Greeley is a community on the move where a robust
economy offers a number of enriching opportunities to residents of
all ages.
Our Direction: Rowing, Not Drifting 2030
Our strategic plan, Rowing, Not Drifting 2030, brings to life our
vision for the university which takes shape in the form of our
vision statement, five vision elements, and outcomes that serve as
the foundation in support of and in service to UNC students,
faculty, staff, alumni, and community. It guides the work of our
five phases over the next decade, as well as the implementation of
our supporting key actions and tactics.
The five vision elements that serve as our foundation are:
Students First: We exist to transform the lives of our students. We
focus on all aspects of their success by making intentional
decisions to meet their needs and the needs of our
community.
Empower Inclusivity: The diversity within our university and state
is a distinct advantage that we celebrate and nurture. We ensure
learning occurs through meaningful discussion of shared and
different experiences, viewpoints, and ideas.
Enhance & Invest: The success of students relies on a healthy and
strong team. We provide our staff and faculty with the support they
need to succeed as professionals, educators, and in life. We foster
an environment where their individual well-being and sense of
belonging are vital to our collective success.
Innovate & Create: Learning occurs through critical inquiry,
discovery, and creation. We leverage technology and capitalize on
opportunities to innovate and improve instruction. We anticipate
and address societal needs by transforming the campus into a
creative laboratory that asks questions, solves problems, and
shapes Colorado's future.
Connect & Celebrate: Strong community connections provide authentic
learning experiences and reciprocal partnerships and
collaborations. We set the standard for how engaged universities
enrich the lives of those on campus, throughout Colorado, and
beyond.
Our Imperatives: Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
UNC is dedicated to strengthening and advancing our collective work
related to diversity, equity, and inclusion, and we aspire to
become a Hispanic Serving Institution. As a diverse team, we
develop and learn more together. We value the individuality of each
person and recognize how diversity enhances our campus. When you
join the UNC family, you can expect to be part of a growing
inclusive, innovative, and equity-minded community that expects
intentional collaboration among faculty, staff, students, and local
partners.
