The
University of New Mexico (
UNM) is a
public university in
Albuquerque, New Mexico,
New Mexico. It was founded in 1889. It also offers multiple bachelor's, master's, doctoral, and professional degree programs in all areas of the arts, sciences, and engineering. Its Albuquerque campus currently spreads over 600
acres (2.4 km²), and there are branch campuses in
Gallup, New Mexico, Los Alamos, New Mexico,
Taos, New Mexico, and Valencia County, New Mexico.
Campus
The main UNM campus is located in central Albuquerque between Central Avenue on the south, Girard Boulevard on the east, Lomas Boulevard on the north, and University Boulevard on the west. The North Campus, which includes the medical and law schools, is located on the north side of Lomas. The South campus is centered around the intersection of University Boulevard and Avenida César Chavez and includes most of UNM's athletic facilities.
The UNM campus is noted for its unique
Pueblo Revival architectural style, introduced when the university's third president, William Tight, plastered over the Victorian-style Hodgin Hall to create a monument to Pueblo Indian culture. Vilified for his primitivism, Tight soon found himself removed from office. History would eventually vindicate him, however, as his vision found new life under the regime of university architect
John Gaw Meem. Meem, a famed Santa Fe, New Mexico architect, designed many university buildings in the pueblo style, including Zimmerman Library and Scholes Hall, and is credited with imbuing the campus with its distinctive Southwestern feel.
Academics
The University of New Mexico School of Engineering is ranked 14th in the Princeton Review Top 20 Graduate Engineering Programs
