in helping you arrive at your future.

4. What do you want to do? Environmental
sciences, business, engineering, music,
criminology, art, physics, journalism,
Latin American studies, architecture,
law, medicine, nursing, economics,
chemistry, education, linguistics —
you get the point: With the quality and
range of your UNM education you can

5. Sure, there are beautiful mountains and
310 days of sunshine each year. But the
real reason UNM is New Mexico’s flag-
ship university has much more to do with
nationally respected schools of engineer-
ing, business and management, arts and
sciences, architecture and planning, law,
medicine, nursing, education and more.
And even with all of that, dollar-for-dollar
UNM is one of the best educational
values in America.

7. The College of Arts and Sciences is the heart
and soul of UNM. From Africana studies to
the arts, biochemistry to journalism,
economics to psychology, this is where the
world’s knowledge — in the hands of an
exceptional teaching-comes-first faculty —
becomes the foundation for whatever career
you can imagine. And there is something
special about learning in a place where
centuries of culture enlighten forward-
looking research and innovation.
W
E’RE WAITING FOR YOU. CHANGE THE CONVERSATION, CHANGE THE RULES, CHANGE THE WORLD. YOUR UNM EDU-
CATION WILL GIVE YOU THE TOOLS TO MAKE IT HAPPEN. THE COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES AND THE COLLEGE

FOR AMERICAN INDIAN RESEARCH, THE MAXWELL MUSEUM OF ANTHROPOLOGY, THE RODEY THEATER, THE NEW MEXICO
CENTER FOR PARTICLE PHYSICS — THESE ARE JUST SOME OF THE AMAZING FACILITIES (AND OPPORTUNITIES) YOU’LL FIND HERE.

8. B
USINESS IS CHANGING AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT — WHICH IS EXACTLY HOW FAST TECHNOLOGY MOVES BOTH OPPORTUNITY AND CRISIS AROUND THE WORLD. UNPREC-
EDENTED CHALLENGES, UNPRECEDENTED POSSIBILITIES, ALL SPUN THROUGH AN EVER-SHIFTING GLOBAL ECONOMY THAT MAKES IT HARDER TO DETERMINE WHICH IS
WHICH. IF YOU ARE PLANNING A BUSINESS CAREER, ENTREPRENEURIAL OR MANAGERIAL, YOU WANT AN EDUCATION THAT IS FORWARD-THINKING AND ETHICALLY GROUNDED. YOU
WANT UNM’S ACCLAIMED ANDERSON SCHOOL OF MANAGEMENT. THE ASPEN INSTITUTE RECENTLY RANKED ANDERSON AMONG THE TOP 20 BUSINESS SCHOOLS IN AMERICA. AND
THAT’S JUST ONE OF THE SURPRISES YOU’LL FIND AT UNM.

9. What do you want to do? Health care,
maybe? Medicine, nursing, pharmacy,
biomedical research? The health sciences
are huge at the University of New Mexico,
beginning with the extraordinary School
of Medicine, the hub of the largest
academic health complex in the state, and
extending to the College of Nursing, the
College of Pharmacy, and valued programs
from dental hygiene to public health,
radiography to physical therapy.
T
HERE ARE FEW UNIVERSITIES WHERE THIS MUCH HEALTH EDUCATION, RESEARCH AND CLINICAL CARE ARE COMBINED ON A
SINGLE CAMPUS, AND WHERE SO MANY POSSIBILITIES AND CAREER PATHS ARE WAITING FOR YOU. SMART WAYS TO
CONNECT YOUR UNDERGRADUATE AND GRADUATE EDUCATION ENHANCE VALUABLE OPPORTUNITIES TO JOIN IN HEALTH CARE
RESEARCH EARLY AND OFTEN. YOU ALSO BENEFIT FROM ACADEMICS OF THE HIGHEST QUALITY POWERED BY A SPIRIT OF FLEXIBIL-
ITY, FREEDOM AND SUPPORT IN HEALTH CARE EDUCATION AND IN ALL UNM PROGRAMS. YOUR TEACHERS ARE DEDICATED TO YOUR
SUCCESS. SOMETIMES, YOU REALLY CAN GET WAY MORE THAN YOU PAY FOR — A UNM EDUCATION IS ONE OF THOSE TIMES.

10. T
HERE ARE JUST SO MANY POSSIBLE FUTURES HERE, BACKED BY WORLD-CLASS TRAINING AND REAL-WORLD EXPERIENCE. PREPARE FOR YOUR CAREER IN THE COLLEGE OF
EDUCATION (AT THE HEART OF PERHAPS THE MOST MULTILINGUAL AND MULTI CULTURAL LEARNING ENVIRONMENT IN AMERICA), OR THE SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING (A

LEARNING AND HOUSED IN A NEW, STATE-OF-THE-EVERYTHING FACILITY). THERE’S THE UNM SCHOOL OF LAW (RENOWNED NATIONALLY FOR ITS HANDS-ON, PRACTICAL
PROGRAMS) AND THE SCHOOL OF PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION (WHERE THE CALL TO PUBLIC SERVICE BECOMES A REWARDING PROFESSION). IT’S ALL AT UNM.

11. Living at UNM is a be-who-you-want-to-be
experience: accepting, friendly and fun.
The UNM campus is enlivened by the energy
of differences and respect, with what may
be America’s most diverse student body.
People are serious about learning and
creativity, in a place that is somehow both
low in background noise and distractions
yet high in community and excitement —
all under the very special, no-light-like-this-
light glow of the New Mexico sun.
