building a Foundation for the future

Educating Professionals

Our innovative approach to education includes internships and field placements that give our students hands-on experience in their chosen fields to better prepare them to contribute to the community.

Building Connections

We work closely with non-profit and government agencies in our region, establishing partnerships that help our students learn as they provide the agencies with services they could not otherwise obtain.

Improving the quality of life

Our students, faculty and staff are at home in the new University Downtown Center, located close to the community agencies and organizations with which they collaborate, allowing them to more easily integrate their activities within the community to help energize and revitalize the region.
