A small campus, with the whole university behind it.
Degree programs, certificates, and research centers on one campus. Small enough that you'll know everyone in your cohort and specific enough that every program here has a reason to be in Portland.
ONE OREGON
UO Portland is the University of Oregon: the state's flagship, a member of the Association of American Universities, and a Big Ten school. Your degree says University of Oregon. Your faculty are UO faculty, in the same schools and colleges that teach in Eugene. Your library card reaches the collections of more than 30 other libraries. And the alumni network you join is every Duck, everywhere.
The people teaching you still do the work.
What being in Portland adds is the people: faculty who still practice, projects that come from real companies, and employers a short drive away.
- Taught by people who still do the work. Architecture by practicing architects. Sports Product Management by a former Nike chief marketing officer and a former Nike Innovation Kitchen designer. Strategic Communication by a working chief communications officer.
- Projects that come from outside. Architecture students spent a term designing community libraries alongside Bora, the Portland firm behind several Multnomah County branches. Sports Product Design students took five of the twelve finalist places in an international wool design challenge with more than 700 entrants.
- Out in the field. Ballmer Institute and School Psychology students are placed in schools across Portland. OEMBA students participate in international travel to gain global business insight.
- And people stay. Graduates are at Bora, the Portland Timbers, and Timberlab, and one manages social media for a team she used to watch from the stands.
Your apartment is on the same block as your classroom.
In only a few minutes, you can walk across the campus tucked in a residential Northeast Portland neighborhood. Coffee, restaurants, and a grocery store are a little longer walk away.
- A gym, turf field, and library.
- Student-only spaces like the Duck Den and Duck Nest.
- A 20-minute drive from downtown or the airport.
She spent two years in Portland clinics. Now she works in one.
Anne Libby transferred from Portland Community College and graduated in the first class of the Ballmer Institute for Children's Behavioral Health. Her placements took her through schools and clinics across the city. She now works at the same Portland-area clinic that cared for her as a child.
