The University of Nevada has two campuses, one in Las Vegas and one in Reno. The Las Vegas campus has a large enrollment of more than 27,000 students. More than 200 undergraduate, graduate and doctoral degree programs are offered here. The university's offerings are quite diverse throughout the individual colleges that make up the school and include business, health sciences, fine arts, hotel administration, education, engineering, liberal arts, sciences and urban affairs. The UNLV Rebels play Division I college athletics.

Sierra Nevada College in Lake Tahoe is indeed a unique institution of higher learning.
