Education for the 21st Century
Students come to Quinnipiac eager to develop the knowledge, skills, and mindsets that lead to meaningful, satisfying career success. Recognizing the ongoing changes in the world around us, Quinnipiac supports and broadens these individual aspirations through a rigorous educational experience. We expect our students to become intentional learners who embody confidence and integrity, and who will emerge as informed leaders in their professions, in the communities where they live, and in their roles as global citizens in the 21st century.
