The University of Connecticut, commonly known as UConn, is the State of Connecticut's land-grant university. It was founded in 1881 and serves over 27,000 students on its six campuses, including more than 7,000 graduate students in multiple programs.
The main university campus is located in Storrs, Connecticut, which is a division of the Town of Mansfield, approximately 28 miles (45 km) east of Hartford, the state's capital. It is situated between North Eagleville Road and South Eagleville Road. The Storrs Road (CT Route 195) cuts through the campus from north to south. The UConn main campus is located north of Eastern Connecticut State University on CT Route 195. Because it is situated in a fairly rural area, the UCONN campus at Storrs has facilities that allow it to be virtually self-sufficient. These include a waste treatment plant, a large Natural Gas generator which provides the entire campus with electricity, and a water filtration plant which is supplied by the nearby Sleepy Hollow reservoir. Like many UCONN facilities, these three are also used for live research and as test environments for students who are engaged in related fields.
In addition to the main campus in Storrs, there are five regional campuses: Avery Point (in Groton), the Greater Hartford campus (West Hartford), Stamford, Torrington, and Waterbury. The School of Law is located in Hartford, and the School of Medicine and the School of Dental Medicine are both located in Farmington. The President of the University is Dr. Philip E. Austin.
