WE’RE DOING BIG THINGS. AT UIC OPEN HOUSE, WE WANT TO SHOW YOU.The University of Illinois at Chicago is an acclaimed research institution located just minutes from the heart of downtown. Sixteen academic colleges, 30,000 students, 3,000 faculty members, and a full hospital and health sciences system on our campus share one mission: to create and share knowledge while doing good and giving back.

For that reason, UIC proudly conducts $348 million in sponsoredresearch led by experts who shape things like public policy, economics, and health care in places as close as Pilsen and as far as Antarctica. Students here also enjoy an 19:1 student-to-teacher ratio, which means they learn and work alongside these world renowned experts.

Altogether, our community is proudly recognized as one of the most ethnically and culturally rich college campuses in America. We boast other top rankings and awards, too, in educational quality, academics, affordability, accessibility, environmental achievements, service, social justice, and more.
