Campus life is often one of the most important factors for you when choosing a school. And it should be—you want a school that will help you grow academically, personally, and professionally. Our campus is vibrant because it is in the heart of Kansas City. UMKC is within walking distance to the famous Country Club Plaza, Westport and the Nelson Atkins Museum. Not only will you find Kansas City’s world-famous barbeque here, you’ll be able to listen to a Nobel Laureate speak, or take salsa dance lessons. Anything is possible.
