About UM-Flint
Positively Impacting People
"When we think about universities, we should not think
of buildings and labs and desks and blackboards. Not
even of books, as much as we love them, or computers, as
much as we need them. Universities are people: students,
faculty, staff, alumni and members of the
community—people engaged in the noble and never-ending
pursuit of knowledge, understanding and making a
difference."
- Juan E. Mestas, Former Chancellor
Through the individual experiences and accomplishments
of our faculty, staff, students, alumni & friends, this
university's mission is brought to life.
Excellence in Teaching, Learning & Scholarship
Student Centeredness
Engaged Citizenship
These are the pillars upon which the University
of Michigan-Flint was built. For over 50 years, their
importance and meaning have not changed, even as the
individuals who aspire to them, draw inspiration from
them and are transformed by them, take that importance
and meaning from this campus to the world.
Every definition of success and every path to it is
unique. Every individual's story is unique. Yet taken
collectively, they tell the real story of the University
of Michigan-Flint: Real impact on real lives.
