We Empower Students to Pursue Their Passions
And We Nurture Them to Reach Their Potential
We know how to help students succeed at UNC. With small class sizes (14:1 student-faculty ratio), we get to know our students. Not just their names, but their stories, challenges, goals and passions. Our faculty and staff are excited to nurture students' goals and passions firsthand.
Here are just a few experiences that students can explore to achieve extraordinary things:
- In our College of Natural and Health Sciences, students can engage in cutting-edge lab research or work in UNC's Cancer Rehabilitation Institute.
- In the College of Performing and Visual Arts, students gain exceptional hands-on learning opportunities to produce more than 30 live stage productions each year.
- In the College of Education and Behavioral Sciences, students can gain more than 900 hours of student teaching in the classroom.
- In the Monfort College of Business, students can work alongside faculty to create mobile apps or manage a portfolio of investments.
- In the College of Humanities and Social Sciences, students work in the field to put theories into practice, publishing your first novel, doing crisis management with communities in Nepal or applying humanistic inquiry to understand how events in the past affect the present.

We Meet You Where You Are
UNC is a place where you can feel at home to be yourself.
From academic advising and support to career coaching, we guide students throughout their journey at UNC. We strive to create a thriving environment where students are supported to meet their academic and career goals. Support can take the form of tutoring, 1:1 mentorship and mock job interviews.
Together, we succeed.
