Responsible for serving the entire state, its main campus is in the capital city of Cuiabá.

Today UFMT is a comprehensive university offering degrees and diplomas, and producing research, in many fields. The medical and health science schools are affiliated with the Hospital Universitário Júlio Müller, the only federally-funded hospital in the state.

Its library is the largest in the state of Mato Grosso, having over 200,000 volumes as of 2012.

In 2019, Folha de São Paulo ranked UFMT 33rd nationally, with its programs in Agronomy, Environmental Engineering, and Education ranked in the top 20.
