It will join the Sugimoto and Abeno campuses and Umeda satellite office, all formerly part of OCU, as well as Nakamozu, Habikino, and Rinku campuses and I-site Namba satellite office, all of which previously belonged to OPU. This plan is in the detailed design stage and is subject to change. OMU has 11 undergraduate schools, a college, and 15 graduate schools.
