When you become a Wayne State University Warrior, you open the door to a life-changing experience. Here, you can take advantage of extraordinary opportunities in a one-of-a-kind city making a storied comeback.
We've been here through it all, and we invite you to join us in writing the Motor City's next chapter during a time of historic transformation.
With a 200-acre main campus woven into the fabric of Detroit, we offer a unique college experience in a city that’s never been afraid to disrupt the narrative. As you make your home here, you'll connect with Warriors from all walks of life and experience everything you can expect from a major university — plus a lot more that might surprise you. Welcome to the best of both worlds.
If you're looking for advantages to living in an urban setting, then Wayne State is for you.
— Faith Berry, theatre student
As a Warrior, you can showcase your talents onstage or in the studio, turn your idea into a cutting-edge business, conduct groundbreaking research, and even study across the globe. Once you graduate, you’ll join more than 290,000 proud alumni who work for industry leaders. Go beyond the classroom to readily make an impact in your backyard and around the world. Take your knowledge to new heights.
Wayne State is proud to make its home in the heart of Detroit: a city of dreamers and doers. Immerse yourself in a collaborative community and cultivate fresh ideas and perspectives, take on new and unexpected challenges, have the best time, and gain a distinct advantage as you develop your career in the Motor City — a place unlike any other.
We can’t wait to show you what Wayne State is all about.
