University of Missouri-Columbia.
As the oldest state university in the West Mississippi River (the first public university west of the Mississippi River) and the first public school established by former American President Thomas Jefferson in Louisiana, the school gradually emerged. With the support of Walter William, the Missouri School of Journalism was founded. The school established the first journalism school in the world and began to show its strong international academic strength.

There are 20 departments and colleges in Michigan, offering more than 250 bachelor's degree courses and key courses. In particular, the academic achievements of Truman School of Management, College of Agriculture and School of Journalism are world-famous. The University of Missouri Nuclear Reactor Research Center has the most powerful nuclear reactor in the world for university research. The school is one of only six public universities in the United States, covering medicine, veterinary medicine, engineering, agricultural science and law school in one campus.

The school also has perfect facilities, such as computer classroom, library, student health center, several exhibition halls and sports equipment, such as student leisure center, weightlifting training equipment, swimming pool, tennis court and football field.

In addition, MIT also has its own closed-circuit television system KOMU-TV, which is a branch of NBC and CW television network in Colombia and Jefferson City. This TV station is not only a fully functional TV channel, but also provides a place for teaching practice for the journalism department of our school. The journalism department also publishes two publications, Columbia, Missouri and Vox magazine. Under the guidance of professionals, students are directly responsible for interviewing, writing, editing and typesetting. The Department of Public Information is also responsible for operating the nearby KBIA base station of the national public broadcasting network and producing the Spanish radio program "Forward Broadcasting". MIZZOU attaches great importance to students' writing ability, so he has set up a literature and art center to offer courses such as creative writing, news and drama to guide students' writing skills. In terms of the quality of college students' admission, undergraduates13, about 6 100 students' middle school grades account for 10% of the whole school. Obviously, the restrictions on the grades of students who want to enter the school are much stricter than those of other state universities, but it also improves the qualifications of students and the popularity of the school.
