The University of Central Arkansas is a state-run institution located in the city of Conway, the seat of Faulkner County, north of Little Rock and is the fourth largest university by enrollment in the state of Arkansas, and the third largest college system in the state
The Arkansas State Legislature created The Arkansas State Normal School, now known as the University of Central Arkansas, in 1907. The purpose of The Arkansas State Normal School was to properly train students to become professional teachers and rid Arkansas of haphazard schoolteachers. Classes began in 1908 with nine academic departments, one building on 80 acres, 107 students and seven faculty members. Two faculty members taught in two departments and President Doyne taught pedagogy and Latin.
UCA Foundation, Inc. are extremely important. Your tax deductible gifts can support a college, academic department, program, athletics, or the Margin of Excellence fund, which is used to support the University’s greatest needs.
The UCA faculty and academic staff are proud of the University’s rich educational traditions, our current vibrancy, and our aspirations for the future. And, as the chief academic officer, I am pleased to invite you to look further into our community of student and faculty scholars.
