Join Our R-1 University Community

The University of Mississippi is designated as a R-1 Highest Research Activity university by the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education, placing us in an elite group of 2.5% of universities nationwide.

Why does the R1 designation matter to students? They will have world-class faculty members bringing new discoveries and techniques into the classroom, lab, and studio. In the College of Liberal Arts, undergraduate students work alongside faculty, gaining the kind of deep mentorship and education that will reap benefits for a lifetime. 

We welcome you to learn about the opportunities to follow your passion while gaining the skills needed for life and your career.
