American state university system providing centralized administration for four universities, a health care system, an extension program, and ten research and technology parks.
The UM System was created in 1963 when the University of Missouri (founded in 1839 in Columbia) and the Missouri School of Mines (now the Missouri University of Science and Technology, founded in 1870 in Rolla), were combined with the formerly private University of Kansas City (now University of Missouri–Kansas City, founded in 1933), and a newly created campus in suburban St. Louis (University of Missouri–St. Louis) in 1963.
The UM System is governed by a board of curators, consisting of nine members appointed by the governor with the advice and consent of the Missouri Senate.
