We believe a student shouldn't have to decide between real-world pre-professional training and richly woven liberal arts learning. At the University of New Haven, we've made it our mission to integrate these often separate educational experiences into one dynamic, four-year private university. We call it real-life learning - an opportunity for students to achieve not only the concentrated career skills and opportunities that will lead to specialized careers upon graduation but also the intellectual and cultural grounding that will give their education - and their lives - depth and context.
