The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at the University of Michigan was established to encourage adults to continue their learning long after formal schooling is done. The Institute’s popular programs help mature adults to rediscover the piquancy of learning — the joy of discovery and feelings of accomplishment that are unencumbered by tests, grades, or drills.

This year’s programs feature:

  • Seven lecture series totaling 43 presentations, offered via online through Zoom;
  • Special urgent and critical series - Election 2020 and the Lasting Impact of Covid-19
  • More than 50 study groups on a wide variety of topics;
  • Three casual, friend-producing evening programs — well-suited to people not yet retired;

30+ years of service to adult learners ages 50+
