“The University of Minnesota’s research center at the historic
intersection of Plymouth and Penn makes a powerful statement.
Just as important is that it creates powerful new possibilities.
"Our researchers and educators are not just working with the
community and in the community—they’re part of it. UROC
represents the University’s strong commitment to long-term
relationships with our urban neighbors that will be truly
transformative on both sides.”
—Heidi Lasley Barajas, UROC executive director
The University of Minnesota UROC building at Plymouth and Penn avenues in North Minneapolis is open Monday–Friday
