About The University of Maine
Founded in 1865, the University of Maine (UMaine), a land and sea grant institution, stands as the flagship of the University of Maine System. Located in Orono, the campus resides on Marsh Island, nestled between the Stillwater and Penobscot rivers. The university's architecture reflects a blend of historical and modern influences. The University of Maine at Orono Historic District, established in 1978, features ten architecturally significant structures built from 1868 to 1913, embodying the institution's heritage. While an initial campus plan by Frederick Law Olmsted was not fully realized, its core concepts shaped the university's early development. Today, UMaine integrates its historical roots with forward-thinking design, fostering innovation in areas from engineering to marine science. With a commitment to sustainability and a focus on creating a vibrant, human-centered environment, the University of Maine continues to evolve, shaping future leaders and contributing to the advancement of the state and beyond.
