Personal Attention in a High Tech Climate
The first thing you notice when you visit Harrisburg University is that this is not a place where anonymity thrives. Thanks to our small class sizes, professors don’t just know your name; they know everything from your academic tendencies to your favorite restaurants, too. This way we can provide one-on-one support and encouragement. You'll receive personal attention to keep you focused on your goals and on track for successful academic work.
Keeping your needs in mind, we focus on personal attention that actively engages you. Courses are designed to be team-taught, and professors are encouraged to run classes in a seminar style. Public speaking is emphasized and group projects are mandatory. The idea is to simulate what it’s like to work with colleagues in a business setting.
We know you'll benefit from our rich learning environment and supportive network. But, we'll also provide adult opportunities that challenge you to grow intellectually. Through our community network of young professionals, and science and cultural associations, you'll be exposed to a broad range of new perspectives and experiences that give you personal support and build confidence and independence.
