Welcome to the University of New Orleans, one of the Gulf Coast region’s most significant assets. We bring higher education to thousands of students from around the world, and our research and scholarship bolster Louisiana’s economy to the tune of over $1 billion dollars and 13,000 jobs annually. Our graduates build new industries, create vibrant culture, and bring fresh ideas to meet 21st century challenges.

Every day I see first-hand the opportunity for UNO to reach even higher. Our students, faculty, staff, and alumni are part of a wonderful community of hard-working, dedicated individuals that can help move the University forward. All of us, together, can make UNO grow to its full potential.

If you are a prospective student or parent, faculty candidate, returning alum, or just a curious visitor, take some time to learn more about the University of New Orleans. We’ve been making a difference for 53 years, and we’re just getting started.
