Duquesne University Top Questions

What's unique about your campus?

Marguerite

The best thing about Duquesne is it's well-rounded liberal arts education. I would not have been offered the opportunites I have if it had not been for those liberal arts classes and learning how to think outside of the box. My education there was truly invaluable

Bridget

I love Duquesne because the small campus is located right in the heart of a big, fun city. Even though there is so much to do around the campus, the campus itself feels very small and comfortble. I also love the Catholic atmosphere and the tight-knit community centered around faith. The size is big enough that I do not know everybody but is small enough that I know many people from all kinds of groups. Also, the campus itself is beautiful.

I loved how diverse and welcoming Duquesne University is. All faculty and staff were readily available to help obtain all of your needs and goals. I never felt any negativity will being enrolled there. Everyone got along well and helped each other out through any obstacle.

Provides a small school environment while being a larger sized school. Also provides a city environment while also providing enough seclusion that you don't have to deal with the troubles of big city living.

Kathryn

The masters program because it allows you to participate in shadowing Occupational Therapists while you are in the program and requires multiple field works in different fields of occupational therapy.

Jessica

Probably the professors. They are very friendly and willing to help you in whatever way you need.

Duquesne University is a small Catholic school, located on the outskirts of downtown Pittsburgh. The campus is beautiful and overlooks the city and surrounding areas. Because Duquesne is small, there is ample opportunity for the professors and faculty to know the students on a personal basis. Although this is a Catholic University, diversity is one of Duquesne's strongest characteristics. The diploma I carry is impressive to every prospective employer, because they know I earned a valuable education.

The Rollins School of Public Health at Emory is amazing. The professors have each contributed to the health of the world in profound ways. I've had lectures from the Czar of AIDS from the White House, the man who was the key player in eradicating small pox in Africa, and the man who wrote the policy to put folic acid in our every day foods. I have the opportunity to learn research techniques from the best in the field. I will have the opportunity to put my knowledge to use with one of these incredible people as my mentor.
