UUP the Union that makes SUNY Work

Our Story

Welcome to UUP!

United University Professions (UUP) is the nation’s largest higher education union, with more than 42,000 academic and professional faculty and retirees. UUP members work at 29 State University of New York campuses, plus System Administration, Empire State College, and SUNY’s public teaching hospitals and health science centers in Brooklyn, Long Island and Syracuse. UUP is affiliated with New York State United Teachers and the American Federation of Teachers, the National Education Association and the AFL-CIO.

 UUP represents SUNY faculty and other professionals at the bargaining table and works to protect their interests by:

      • Achieving improvements in salary, fringe benefits, working conditions and retirement programs.
      • Providing funding for professional growth and development through leaves, awards, conferences and other grant programs.
      • Obtaining state resources for the State University through effective legislative and political action.
