Our mission is to create a student-centered, world-class educational system that focuses on offering quality, market-relevant programs to lifelong learners.
Since 1971, National University has been dedicated to meeting the needs of hard-working adults by providing accessible, affordable, and achievable higher education opportunities. Founded by retired U.S. Navy Capt. David Chigos, we now educate to grow and change, but our commitment to our values remains constant. National University’s values include:
Quality: Provide an exceptional student experience, from initial contact to degree completion and engagement as alumni.
Innovation: Cultivate innovation and invest in the latest developments that will have a positive impact on our students
Collaboration: Create cooperative work relationships, enabling us to develop the best services, learning solutions, and academic pathways for our students.
Diversity: Embrace differences in race, gender, age, ability, and geography as a part of our academic fabric and appreciate those differences as drivers of change.
Access: Offer Flexible, convenient, and affordable courses and programs for any qualified and motivated lifelong learner.
The field of technology is one of the most rapidly evolving industries today. Keeping up with the innovation coming out of this field requires more than education, it takes creative and critical thinking and the ability to quickly adapt. Those hoping to launch a career in tech need to have academic knowledge, experience and real-world insight to be successful in this competitive industry.
Our technology programs have been carefully crafted to align with the demands of the industry today. To ensure that our programs stay in step with market needs, we use a Program Advisory Council to review and update our curriculum based on input from employers and industry leaders. This means the education you receive at NU is always up-to-date and career-relevant.
At NU, you can earn your degree entirely online with a range of in-demand degrees and specializations like computer science, data science, cybersecurity and technology management.
