Residential Life

Mizzou’s Department of Residential Life deals with more than just where students live; it combines living and learning in environments that enhance students’ academic and personal growth. Innovative and award-winning programs such as Freshman Interest Groups (FIGs) and Sponsored Learning Communities bring students with similar interests together in the same residence halls, classes and specialized programs. Residential Life also is building for the future; the comprehensive Residential Life Master Plan includes new construction and renovation of all residence halls.
