General Education Advisory Task Force

The General Education Advisory Task Force leads the initiative of reviewing and making recommendations for renewing the UMKC general education program.


Institutional Accreditation at UMKC

Institutional accreditation aides quality and demonstrates accountability for UMKC. It is a process of critical self-analysis that incorporates all of our schools and departments and plays a vital role in student success and learning.


Student Retention

Student retention is an important agenda at UMKC. When students are successful, it benefits themselves as well as their community; earning potential and career opportunities increase with level of education. UMKC has a commitment to integrate all students in a supportive social and intellectual community in order for them to increase their level of education and experience.
