The University of Minnesota, Twin Cities is an American university founded in 1851.

It is located jointly in the cities of Minneapolis and Saint Paul, known as the Twin Cities, in the state of Minnesota in the United States. The university is the oldest and largest part of Minnesota's university system. It is often ranked among the top 30 universities in the world by the Shanghai Academic Ranking of World Universities.

Its student body is the second largest in the United States, with 52,557 students and a ratio of 1 professor to 16 students. It is located on two campuses in each of the two cities, linked by a dedicated bus system. Because of Minnesota's unique geography (more than 12,000 lakes, and hundreds of miles of parks and forests), the university is heavily involved in research into the environment, renewable resources and energy, and sustainable development. Its annual economic impact on the local economy is estimated at 8.9 billion dollars.
