History

The University of Missouri was founded in 1839 in Columbia which remained the sole campus until 1870, when a school of mines and metallurgy was established in Rolla. In 1963 the University of Kansas City, which had been a private institution, was acquired by the University and a new campus was created in St. Louis, creating the present four campus system. In the minds of many, the Columbia campus is still the 'main' campus; located there are offices of the University of Missouri System.
