University of North Carolina – Wilmington Recently Updated

UNCW has always emphasized students journeys to inquire and discover and, through those processes, better themselves and their communities. Our deepest and most sustaining value is our fundamental commitment to this journey.

The University of North Carolina Wilmington, the states coastal university, is dedicated to learning through the integration of teaching and mentoring with research and service. Our powerful academic experience stimulates creative inquiry, critical thinking, thoughtful expression and responsible citizenship in an array of high-quality programs at the baccalaureate and masters levels, and in our doctoral programs in marine biology and educational leadership. Substantial research activity, combined with our hallmark teaching excellence and moderate size, advances distinctive student involvement in faculty scholarship. We are committed to diversity and inclusion, affordable access, global perspectives, and enriching the quality of life through scholarly community engagement in such areas as health, education, the economy, the environment, marine and coastal issues, and the arts.
