Eastern Michigan University Increases Detroit Presence

Eastern Michigan University is increasing its presence in Detroit with a new off-campus center on the city's northwest side.

The Ypsilanti school says the facility is in a third-floor suite of rooms in a building across the street from Wayne County Community College's northwest campus.

The EMU Board of Regents approved a lease agreement for the space this week. It will include staff and faculty offices, classrooms, a computer lab and a student lounge area.
