Coral Gables, Florida, serves as the main campus of the University of Miami, and two other campuses are located in Miami and Virginia Key. The university enrolls approximately 15,000 students and contains 12 colleges, which include a law school, oceanography school, and medical school. Its many programs include 51 Doctorates, 114 Master’s degrees, and 115 undergraduate degrees. Known as a research university, the school attracts approximately $326 million a year in research funds.
The university’s schools include the College of Engineering, School of Architecture, College of Arts and Sciences, School of Communication, School of Business Administration, and School of Education. The University of Miami School of Law and the Leonard M. Miller School of Medicine serve as graduate schools only.
The Coral Gables campus, which sits on 260 acres near Miami, is home to most of the academic programs. The Jerry Herman Ring Theatre serves as the location for students to stage musicals and plays. The School of Architecture’s gallery, the Jorge M. Perez Architecture Center, holds exhibitions that emphasize design, and the John C. Gifford Arboretum contains a lovely botanical garden.
The university’s main library, the Otto G. Richter Library, houses many collections that span topics such as architecture, the arts, the social sciences, and the humanities and also features rare maps, books, and manuscripts stored in the Cuban Heritage Collection and Special Collections Division.
Thirty-one sororities and fraternities exist at the university, and service groups abound, including Habitat for Humanity International and Amnesty International. The Miami Hurricane serves as the school paper and gets published twice a week. Student honor societies at the University include the Iron Arrow Honor Society, the Order of Omega, and a Mortar Board chapter.
