The University of North Carolina at Greensboro (UNCG) is a Doctoral/Research- Intensive University, based in Greensboro, North Carolina. It is one of the 16 campuses of the University of North Carolina (UNC). That public institution of higher learning caters to the diverse educational needs of the community it serves. The North Carolina university had its origin in 1891, with the opening of State Normal and Industrial School as a state-supported school of higher education for women. The school’s name changed to State Normal and Industrial College in 1896, North Carolina College for Women in 1919 and then Woman's College of the University of North Carolina (commonly known as WC) in 1932. WC combined with University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and the North Carolina State College of Agriculture and Engineering at Raleigh to form a consolidated UNC. By 1963, the institution became coeducational and renamed the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, according to an act by the General Assembly. Currently, the institution has grown among the top-tier universities in the state. It is a member of the National Association of State Universities and Land Grant Colleges (NASULGC) and the American Association of Colleges and Universities (AASCU).

Bryan School of Business and Economics, School of Education, School of Health and Human Performance, School of Human Environmental Sciences, School of Music, and School of Nursing.
