Mission:

The mission of the Edwards Campus is to bring the high-quality academic programs, research and public service of the University of Kansas to the greater Kansas City community to serve the workforce, economic and community development needs of the region.

About Us:

The University of Kansas has held a tradition of excellence for over a century. KU began sharing that tradition to greater Kansas City in the 1970's by providing courses to working professionals. It was in 1993 that KU opened its Edwards Campus, leaving a permanent presence to providing growth and education to Kansas City's community.

We pride ourselves on putting the needs of students first. We have a wide variety of graduate and undergraduate degree completion programs for students to choose from. And we provide late afternoon and evening classes to help our students balance the responsibilities of work and family.

Courses at the Edwards Campus earn the same credit as those taught on the main campus in Lawrence, Kan. with our students earning KU degrees. Because the University of Kansas enjoys a national and international reputation, our students can be sure their hard work will earn them the respect of current and potential employers no matter where their career takes them.
