At UK, we recognize that it’s not only what you learn, but where you learn. We have invested $2.7 billion over the last decade to transform our campus into a state-of-the-art space that promotes deeper connection, comfort and learning. Take our Gatton Student Center, which has become a favorite gathering space for all of our students. Or our residence halls - all built within the last 15 years. UK is one of only eight universities in the nation that has agriculture, engineering, law, medicine and pharmacy on one contiguous campus. So, go. Discover what’s wildly possible.
“I visited UK to find out more about their Chinese program, and I ended up falling in love with the campus, the CLD major, and more. I loved how accessible everything was on campus, and I began to picture myself walking around waving at familiar faces. What I love the most is that UK is large enough to meet new people while running into others you know. It’s the perfect campus size.”
