It’s not just that our continually-evolving programs––like digital marketing, health science, art and design, STEM and education––will launch your career. Or that our liberal arts foundation will help you apply new skills to your personal and professional life. It’s that at SHU, your learning is personal. Your professors will know you—your strengths, needs and goals––and you’ll be empowered for life.
It’s the perfect place for you. Our beautiful New England campus in Fairfield, Connecticut, is ideally located between New York City and Boston––which means students benefit from SHU's partnerships with world-class hospitals, nationally-ranked elementary and secondary schools, a high concentration of Fortune 500 corporations and access to the employers in Connecticut's "creative corridor."
Hands-on internship experiences with employers like NBC, Yale New Haven Hospital and the New England Patriots will give you a full resume even before you graduate. Combine that with the unmatched dedication of Sacred Heart’s Center for Career & Professional Development and it’s easy to see why within a year postgrad, 99% of SHU alumni are employed in career-related, full-time positions or attending some of the top graduate and professional schools in the country.
To give our students the best living and learning spaces, we’ve opened 17 new buildings in six years ––including our world-class Center for Healthcare Education, engineering and technology innovation center and an entire new quad of residence halls.
With 33 D-I athletic teams, 100,000+ community service hours performed each year, a thriving performing arts program and options for fraternity & sorority life, there’s a place for everyone in our friendly community.
