The University
The University of Dubuque is a coeducational liberal arts college and a theological seminary in Iowa's first city - Dubuque. The Key City is on the Mississippi river at the point where the borders of Wisconsin, Illinois, and Iowa meet. Founded in 1852 by Adrian Van Vliet as a school for prospective pastors, the four-year college was added several years later. It now has four schools: School of Business, School of Liberal Arts, School of Professional Programs, and School of Theology.
Through its history, the University has been known as a place of educational opportunity. Even today, a large portion of its students are the first person from their families to attend college. The student body of approximately 1,000 students come from 30 states and 20 foreign countries.
Students from many nations attend the University of Dubuque. Together with international students at other institutions in Dubuque and peoples from other cultures who live in the Dubuque area, they bring an international flavor to the community and to the campus. UD offers students a cosmopolitan atmosphere.
