The Coalition of Urban and Metropolitan Universities (CUMU) is hosting its annual conference this October in Minneapolis–Saint Paul. This year’s conference, themed "Transforming Cities, Communities, and Campuses," will focus on how universities can drive positive change and foster collaboration within urban and metropolitan areas.

The conference will feature keynote speakers, interactive sessions, and networking opportunities designed to address pressing issues and showcase successful community engagement practices.
The CUMU Conference brings together leaders from urban and metropolitan universities to share insights and experiences. The event promises diverse perspectives and great value for attendees.
Key features of the conference include:
- Pre-conference workshops.

For those unable to attend in person, CUMU offers a mailing list to keep you informed about future events and initiatives in urban higher education.
