Overview


Quinnipiac University, founded in 1929, is a private, co-educational, non-sectarian institution of higher education. It is primarily a residential campus in a uniquely attractive New England setting. Quinnipiac's mission is to provide a supportive and stimulating environment for the intellectual and personal growth of undergraduate, graduate, and law students.

The university offers broadly based undergraduate programs together with graduate programs in selected professional fields. At the undergraduate level, through integrated liberal arts and professional curricula, programs in the Schools of Business, Communications, Health Sciences, the College of Liberal Arts and the Division of Education prepare students for career entry or advanced studies. Graduate programs are designed to provide professional qualifications for success in business, education, health sciences, communications, and law.

An education at Quinnipiac embodies the university's commitment to three important values: excellence in education, a sensitivity to students, and a spirit of community. Academic programs and services are offered in a highly personalized learning environment featuring small classes and ready access to faculty, reflecting the university's commitment to excellence in teaching, as well as support for scholarship and professional development. The entire university shares a service orientation toward students and their needs. Its collegial atmosphere fosters a strong sense of community, identity, and purpose among faculty, staff, and students.

Quinnipiac University strives to prepare graduates who manifest critical and creative thinking, effective communication skills, informed value judgments, and who possess an educational foundation for continued growth and development in a changing world of diverse cultures and people. Through public service and cultural events, Quinnipiac extends its resources to the professions and communities which it serves.
