NAU Description

Northern Arizona University is a proud undergraduate and post-graduate institution that calls Flagstaff, Arizona home.

If you’re looking for a four-year university that promotes an ethnically rich and diverse student body, while also preparing students to contribute to the social, economic and environmental needs of the community and world-at-large, you should consider calling Flagstaff and Northern Arizona University home as well.

Northern Arizona University is committed to designing programs that will enrich students understanding of global issues, not just Arizonan issues.

The student body is proud of its progressive recycling efforts, shuttles powered with biodiesel and three new energy-efficient buildings certified by the U.S. Green Building Council. Going green is not just a way of life, but an academic tool used by Northern Arizona University to support the fastest-growing job market in America.

Northern Arizona University has more than 90 undergraduate programs and 50 graduate programs, all heavily powered by student research and a dedicated faculty.

Though Northern Arizona University concentrates its efforts in “going green,” it offers the wide array of disciplines and programs that any major university has to offer.

That means you can choose a major like Parks and Recreation or Forestry, opt for Nursing or Marketing, or find something in between that suits you.

So if you’re committed to your education and are looking for an institution that will open doors for you, explore Northern Arizona University!
