President's Welcome Message
Welcome to The University of Findlay’s website.
 The
University of Findlay is the largest and most diverse private
educational institution in northwest Ohio, with a total enrollment of
more than 4,000 full-time and part-time students. We offer 65 majors
leading to baccalaureate degrees and eight graduate degrees. Findlay is
a flexible, forward-looking university that continually adapts programs
and teaching methods to prepare today’s students for tomorrow’s careers.
Bachelor’s degree requirements include a solid
academic major curriculum combined with a liberal arts foundation. Students also are encouraged to participate in
campus-sponsored service learning projects and to prepare for their
chosen careers through co-op and internship experiences.
Of
2,700 full-time undergraduates, 1,200 live in campus housing. Campus
activities abound with 75 clubs and organizations, intramural sports
and 23 intercollegiate athletic teams. Theatre productions, art
exhibits and music concerts offer creative outlets and serve as a
source of cultural enrichment for the campus and community.
Findlay’s
diverse student population includes more than 400 international
students from more than 40 countries, bringing a flavor of world
cultures to campus. UF ranks high amoung U.S. institutions of our type
for the number and percentage of international students we enroll.
Education
at The University of Findlay is offered in ways that accommodate
students of all ages. Many students have time-pressured lifestyles and
multiple responsibilities. In addition to traditional weekday classes,
Findlay offers courses at night, on weekends and over the Internet.
Findlay’s
longest-standing tradition is a faculty focused on students, providing
individual academic advising and personal attention. Alumni and current
students alike cite close relationships with faculty members as
hallmarks of their educational experiences at Findlay. Faculty are also
involved with research and publishing, participating in professional
organizations and presenting at conferences, but their first love is
teaching students.
The University of Findlay is fortunate in its
location. The city of Findlay, population 38,000, has been named one of
the best communities in Ohio and one of the top places to live in the
United States. Findlay consistently has one of the lowest unemployment
rates in Ohio and offers students opportunities for internships and
employment, as well as for recreation and shopping.
Dr. DeBow Freed
