WE GO WAY BEYOND
THE TYPICAL UNIVERSITY


While other universities talk about changing the world, our students and faculty do it—every day. Washington, D.C. is an integral part of who we are, allowing us to put knowledge into action through our access to internships, research initiatives, and service opportunities.

Our diverse student population studies everything from forensic science and creative writing to international affairs and computer engineering, as well as medicine, public health, law, and public policy.
