Founded in 1889 by Presbyterian ministers to educate the youth of the mountains, the University of Pikeville stands as a school of opportunity and the leading university of Central Appalachia. A beacon on the hill steeped in the Christian tradition of truth and service to mankind, our community of learners shares a fundamental belief in the power of education to change lives. Situated in the heart of Central Appalachia, we are a private, four-year liberal arts and sciences university with a college of osteopathic medicine and the only optometry college in Kentucky.
