As Oklahoma’s largest metropolitan university, UCO provides high-quality, nationally recognized programs that are always evolving and adapting to the needs of students and the community. This commitment is rooted in its founding in 1890 as the state’s teacher’s college, training those who would educate the next generation of leaders and innovators.
Guided by the motto “ubi motus est” – which translates to “where movement is” – UCO continues to evolve and grow, offering 119 undergraduate and 81 graduate programs to our more than 12,000 students from its main campus in Edmond, Oklahoma, and facilities throughout the Oklahoma City metro. The university is governed by the Regional University System of Oklahoma Board of Regents and accredited by the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools.
