University of Michigan in United States of America

One of the foremost research universities in the United States, the University of Michigan was founded in 1817, before Michigan had even become a state, and moved from Detroit to what is now its central campus in Ann Arbor in 1837.

 Michigan spans 780 acres, which is made up of its Central and North campuses, two regional campuses, and a center in Detroit. It has a large student body of around 46,000, with undergraduates numbering two-thirds of that number.

 Michigan has been lauded for having high standards of research, and the university‚ comprehensive graduate program offers doctoral degrees in the humanities, social sciences, and STEM fields (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) as well as professional degrees in architecture, business, medicine, law, pharmacy, nursing, social work, public health, and dentistry.

 Michigan's body of living alumni comprises more than a half-million people, which is one of the largest alumni bases of any university in the world and a valuable resource for current students when it comes to networking and building industry connections. Around a quarter of all students are accommodated on campus, with many residence halls serving undergraduates, and family housing that is intended mainly for graduate students. 

There are also off-campus apartments, houses, and co-operatives, which generally house upper-division and graduate students, as well as ‚ communities‚ within residence halls, where students can immerse themselves among peers with similar interests. Michigan has more than 1,600 clubs and societies, including engineering project teams, community service organizations, and charitable projects.
