Considered one of the Midwest's top universities, the University of Michigan-Dearborn offers a beautiful campus wedged between the Rouge River and the Fairlane Town Center shopping mall. After class, students can shop or see a movie at the mall or hike the trails along the Rouge River. The UM-Dearborn campus is built on land donated by the Ford Motor Corporation, and the Henry Ford Estate is located on the southwest side of campus. This historic estate, called Fair Lane, was built in 1927 and included 1300 acres -- 200 of which were donated for the university in 1959.
UM-Dearborn provides a variety of varsity sports teams to cheer on, including the impressive men's ice hockey team, which plays at the University of Michigan-Dearborn Fieldhouse.
