Unparalleled Opportunities
UNCW's most important asset is its people. We provide unparalleled opportunities for faculty, staff and students to succeed. We are a community of learners who all believe in the power of education to make the world a better place.
National Prominence
As a doctoral university, UNCW’s high level of regionally relevant and globally important research will continue to expand, especially in areas of societal need and existing expertise, such as health programs and programs reflecting our coastal location.
Community Commitment
We will draw on UNCW’s demonstrated commitment to enhancing local and regional access and engagement, especially through the arts and athletics and on connecting Wilmington to the world through global perspectives and international partnerships.
World-Class Operations
We think of place not only as our coastal location, but also as the physical infrastructure and institutional operations that support our mission as well as our attitudes and approaches to environmental stewardship and sustainability.
