More Than 30 Years of Thinking Ahead
University of Phoenix was founded in 1976 on an innovative idea: make higher education highly accessible for working students. Still guided by this idea, University of Phoenix has helped transform the landscape of higher education in widely recognized ways. Many of the conveniences that 21st-century students now take for granted--evening classes, flexible scheduling, continuous enrollment, a student-centered environment, practitioner faculty, online classes, online library, ebooks, computer simulations--were pioneered or made acceptable through our efforts.
University of Phoenix is the largest private university in North America, with over 230 convenient locations, as well as Internet delivery in most countries around the world. We're also a comprehensive university. University of Phoenix has more than 100 degree programs at the associate's, bachelor's, master's and doctoral levels in much-desired employment areas, from business and technology to health care and education.
The Faculty
The faculty of University of Phoenix is an essential element of all aspects of the institution. The University employs a strong cadre of carefully selected academics as the Core Faculty that oversees curriculum and instruction. The Core Faculty is complemented by a large team of Associate Faculty members with advanced academic degrees and years of experience in the fields in which they teach. Our faculty help students relate to the world of work, help them make connections between theoretical and practical application, and bring immediate relevance to content.
