Dear Students,
Welcome to UNC Charlotte, home of the Niner Nation. Whether
you are here to pursue an undergraduate or graduate degree,
the University of North Carolina at Charlotte is committed
to providing you with the resources and support necessary to
complete your educational journey. The expertise of our
dedicated teaching and research faculty, support of our
staff, and the many services offered will help you meet your
personal and professional goals.
You join UNC Charlotte at an exciting point in its
evolution. During your time here, the University will
strengthen its presence in Center City Charlotte.
Construction of our Center City Building reinforces the
University’s mission to be the state’s urban research
institution, committed to the cultural, economic,
educational, environmental, health and social needs of the
greater Charlotte region. Living and working in a diverse
metropolitan region affords you special opportunities for
study, research and personal growth.
I encourage you to become actively engaged in the life of
the University. Beyond UNC Charlotte’s exceptional
educational experience, there are many ways for you to
become engaged on campus and in the community – student
activities, leadership and volunteer opportunities, Greek
organizations, and intramural sports and athletics.
So, with all that awaits, get ready for an exhilarating time
in your life. Go Niners!
Cordially,
Philip L. Dubois
Chancellor
If this is your first
year at UNC Charlotte, we welcome to our great campus. If
you are returning, we are pleased to welcome you back.
Our University is constantly changing, and you are a part of
that change. The reputation of any great school is based in
large part on the success of its students, and we are
dedicated to supporting yours. Our distinguished faculty are
here to provide you with a quality education that will open
doors for you. If we do our job right, your education will
be intellectually challenging for you. If you do your job
right, these years at UNC Charlotte will lay the groundwork
for an exciting and satisfying future.
Remember, too, that there is more to the collegiate
experience than coursework. I encourage you to become
involved in some of the many activities or student
organizations that are available to you. There, you will
build friendships and relationships with both your fellow
students and our faculty that you will take with you and
cherish as you move on through the years.
We are pleased that you have chosen UNC Charlotte. As we
continue to grow, we look forward to your continuing to grow
with us as a person, scholar, and future alumnus/alumna.
Sincerely,
Joan F. Lorden
Provost and Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs |
