University of Charleston

Only a select number of colleges in the country offer a curriculum like ours, encouraging independent thought…creativity…critical thinking…ethical practice…and more. From an emphasis on community service to many options for learning outside the classroom, UC offers a college experience like no other school.

The University of Charleston is an independent, co-educational, residential university, with a main campus in the state capital of West Virginia. It is one of twelve colleges chosen as a model for the First-Year-Experience, and is nationally recognized for its outcomes-based curriculum. Our Liberal Learning Outcomes embeds critical thinking, communication, citizenship, creativity/innovation, ethical practice and inquiry into courses in each major, providing our students the foundation to think, act and develop skills that are necessary to thrive in the workplace and in the future.

Our mission is to educate students for a life of productive work, enlightened living and community involvement. We have 30 different undergraduate majors, graduate programs in pharmacy, business and physician assistant, and a growing online program.
