Uraian Tempat

Southern Illinois University, chartered in 1869, began instruction in 1874 in Carbondale offering a two-year program in teacher training. By 1904 students were able to earn four-year bachelor’s degrees. In the 1930s, the two-year teaching programs were discontinued; in 1943, the first graduate coursework was offered. The school’s changing mission was recognized in 1947 when the state legislature renamed the institution Southern Illinois University. In 1970, SIU’s original Carbondale campus was separated administratively from its satellite campus in Edwardsville. The original campus, known as Southern Illinois University Carbondale (SIUC), includes the School of Medicine in Springfield and the School of Law in Carbondale. In addition to pursuing statewide goals and priorities, SIUC: strives to develop the professional, social and leadership skills expected of college students; develops partnerships with communities, businesses and other colleges and universities; cultivates and sustains a commitment in research and instruction related to the region’s natural resources and environment; strives to meet the health care needs of central and Southern Illinois; cultivates and sustains diversity through a commitment to multiculturalism.
