At the University of Memphis, we are Driven by Doing. Driven by Doing isn`t just a slogan. It`s what you`ll see happening all around you at the UofM. Every. Single. Day. We`ve had a lot of firsts here in Memphis. But our most memorable years are yet to come. We are all about forward progress. Yours. That`s what Memphis does. For over 100 years, the UofM has been a catalyst for progress in the city of Memphis, the state of Tennessee and the surrounding Mid-South region. From its inception in 1912 as a “normal school” dedicated to the education of public school teachers to its role today as an educator of technologically savvy, socially conscious graduates who face a complex world, the UofM has always been an integral component of the greater community. Exceptional students from 50 states and 82 countries choose the University of Memphis as their collegiate home. Approximately 22,000 students attend the UofM, including more than 2,200 first-time freshmen and 2,500 students who live in university housing.

Additionally, its graduate programs in audiology, speech-language pathology and rehabilitation counseling are consistently ranked among the top 20 in the nation by U.S. News. As a doctoral-granting metropolitan research university, the UofM is committed to excellence in undergraduate, graduate and professional education; in the discovery and dissemination of knowledge; in engaged scholarship to the community, state and nation; and in the preparation of a diverse student population for successful careers and meaningful participation in a global society.
