About
the University
The University of Maine at Presque Isle provides its 1400
traditional and non-traditional students with life-changing
opportunities in a caring, small-university environment. One of seven
autonomous campuses within the University of Maine System, UMPI
combines liberal arts and selected professional programs and serves as
a cultural and educational resource for the entire community. The
University has adopted a learning focus that permeates the curriculum,
student life, even the classrooms themselves. It is adventurous
learning--intellectual, cultural, and outdoor adventure in an
extraordinary natural and cultural environment. This adventurous
learning provides opportunities for personal discovery and individual
adventure so that students develop the skills and self-confidence to
succeed in life.
The campus sits on 150 acres surrounded by the rolling hills
and potato fields of northern Maine. The city of Presque Isle,
population 10,500, offers opportunities for both summer and winter
outdoor sports and is the primary commercial center of the region.
Combining clean air, clear skies, and safe small-town life next door to
the Northern Maine Woods, it also boasts blue-ribbon schools, a
regional airport, and easy access to nearby Canada.
