Wayne State University

Wayne State University (WSU) is Michigan’s only urban public research university. Located in the heart of Detroit’s cultural center, Wayne State offers a distinctive educational experience to students from around the world.

The Graduate and Professional programs at Wayne State University are among the highest quality and most dynamic academic programs in the nation. With over 14,000 post baccalaureate students, Wayne State is also one of the largest graduate schools in the country. Our Carnegie status as a Research University (very high research activity) is evidence of our commitment to continually advancing the frontiers of knowledge, and in fact, WSU recently spent $225 million on research, making it one of the top 50 public universities for expenditures on research. These decisions validate WSU being dedicated to training tomorrow’s leaders, scholars, and teachers in a dynamic metropolitan environment.
