Our approach is unique in higher education. Through a combination of academic and experiential learning, we deliver an education that advances the traditional university learning model to meet market demands better. Our faculty, curriculum, facilities, student experience, and network of partners create an environment purposely designed to produce extraordinarily well-prepared professionals. From campus to local communities to countries worldwide, our programs will deeply immerse you in learning experiences. You could teach in the highest-need, most diverse elementary schools in New England, provide health screenings in Haiti, study abroad in Florence or assist on an archaeological dig in an ancient burial ground in southeastern Hungary. You could make microloans to cottage businesses in Nicaragua, or intern with a global media company in LA. The experiences will change you and leave you well prepared for a successful career. Our curriculum is based on market-driven knowledge and expertise. Here, you will learn what employers require from their employees — because that is what we teach. Our faculty members, a balance of PhDs and working professionals, are distinguished by the personal investment they make in your success. We'll give you the tools, the mentoring, and the platform to launch a rewarding career. Whatever you aspire to be — a doctor, a lawyer, a teacher, a software engineer, a physical therapist — we can help you get there. Our broad liberal arts core complements deep expertise delivered across our 100-degree programs to provide an education that equips you for an extraordinary career. From civil engineering and nursing to journalism and accounting, you can find your passion here. We know that learning does not end at the classroom door. What you will learn from other students here is vitally important to your growth. Your education is reinforced by a supportive community and a wide array of co-curricular and extracurricular offerings — and you can get involved right away. We call this the quintessential student experience, and it's one of the many things that make Quinnipiac unique. Ten thousand two hundred ninety students are enrolled in our College of Arts and Sciences and eight professional schools with a student-to-faculty ratio of 16 to 1. Several states our undergraduates call home. They also represent 53 countries. Our graduate population comes from 45 different states and 14 countries. At Quinnipiac, you will do more than earn a degree. You'll become a part of our vibrant community where students rally around shared interests, passions, and causes. You will see this collective passion come to life through our 146 student-run organizations while volunteering in the local community or through service-learning opportunities available around the world. You'll hear it when you experience artists like DJ Tiesto, Kesha, and Jason Derulo at our exclusive Wake the Giant concert series each spring. You'll feel it when you join your fellow Bobcats to cheer on our nationally ranked hockey and basketball teams in the York Hill Campus arenas. Living in Southern New England means you're never far from top recreational choices or the culture of major cities. Whether it's skiing some of the best mountains in the Northeast, or grabbing dinner and seeing an off-Broadway show in downtown New Haven, you'll enjoy all that the region has to offer. These are the quintessential experiences that will define your time at Quinnipiac.
