Students are guided to develop to the fullest in every facet of their intellectual potential. In both the College of Arts & Sciences and the Erivan K. Haub School of Business, the University sets continually higher educational standards for its students. Our top-rate faculty provide a rigorous, intense education that both disciplines and expands the mind.
