UKE is a church-affiliated university.  Founded as the Union Institute in 1838, it was reorganized as a teachers college in 1851, became a liberal arts college in 1859, and was renamed Duke University in 1924.  Programs are offered through the Trinity College of Arts and Sciences, the School of Engineering, and the Graduate School.  Its 9,350-acre campus, including many buildings in the English Gothic architecture style, is located in a residential section of Durham.

Duke takes strategic planning seriously and will submitted a new five-year university plan “Making a Difference” in Fall 2006.  Duke???s core values include interdisciplinarity, knowledge in the service of society, internationalization, diversity, and affordability and access.  Goals within the new plan include: to increase the capacity of faculty to develop and communicate disciplinary and interdisciplinary knowledge; to strengthen the engagement of the University in real world issues; to attract the best graduate students and make them full partners in the creation and transmission of knowledge; to foster in undergraduate students a passion for learning and a commitment to make a real difference in the world; to strengthen the arts; and to lead and innovate in the creation, management, and delivery of scholarly resources in support of teaching and research.
