Is there really a difference between Wayne State University and Michigans other research universities?
Yes. Wayne State University is located in an urban center that draws its student body from a very diverse population base. The university prides itself in its accessibility to members of diverse communities within the Metropolitan Detroit area and the region. Graduates of the university tend to remain within the region after graduation and many of the graduates of its professional schools, including the School of Social Work, form the service infrastructure of the state within key areas of education, health care, human services, law, business and the arts.
