The University's uncommon breadth of nationally accredited academic programs in the liberal arts and professional studies attracts a statewide enrollment of undergraduate students. Our quest is to uplift our region's educational attainment, cultural opportunities, economic growth, environmental quality, scientific and technological progress, and social and personal well-being. Our hallmark is a comprehensive university experience that promotes student growth and success through creative strategies for using technology, enhancing learning, and connecting all we do to those around us. Working professionals and transfer students are a growing presence.
Student life is characterized by a culture of learning inside and outside the classroom.
A safe campus serves as a laboratory for developing citizenship and leadership in a collegial environment. The Georgia Southern experience promotes the development of students who value honesty, civility, and the dignity of work. At the University's core is excellent instruction, strengthened by research and service. Innovative classes increasingly incorporate new instruction techniques and technologies. We expand horizons through outreach in sciences and liberal arts, preservation of distinctive cultural legacies, and attention to the integrity of South Georgia's environment.
