Founded in 1842, the University of Notre Dame is the nation’s leading Catholic research
university, providing a distinctive voice in higher education that is at once rigorously
intellectual, boldly moral in orientation, and firmly embracing of a service ethos. Rated among
the top 20 of all U.S. institutions of higher learning and a member of the Association of
American Universities, Notre Dame ranks among the top 10 nationally in the percentage of
students who study abroad and has seen research funding more than double in the past decade.
The University is organized into four undergraduate colleges — Arts and Letters, Science,
Engineering, and the Mendoza College of Business — the School of Architecture, the Keough
School of Global Affairs, the Law School, and the Graduate School. It is located adjacent to the
city of South Bend, Indiana, in a region with a population of more than 320,000, and is widely
known for its scholarly excellence, Catholic character, legendary athletics programs, and the
beauty of its campus, including the Golden Dome of the Main Building, the world’s most
recognized university landmark.
