For more than 150 years, we have been at the forefront of some of the biggest shifts in our society, from supporting women's rights and our connections with the early abolitionist movement to the social unrest that took place on our campus and across the country throughout the 20th century.
Today, we stand proudly among the top 200 programs worldwide in 29 academic disciplines and continue to garner global recognition for excellence in research, scholarship, and entrepreneurship. Activism and advocacy are alive and well on the UMass campus. We continue to celebrate our deep roots in social change through our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion for all students.
