Natchez Campus Vision

Home to the University’s School of Nursing and other cutting-edge degree programs, the Natchez Campus is 30 miles south of the Lorman Campus, located in the city of Natchez, Mississippi. The Campus balances two main functions: educating the next generation of nurses and professionals, and supporting the local community and broader region with a wide range of services.

These public services include family healthcare in an expanded clinic, business incubation, nutritional assistance, wellness resources, public library and technology resources, outdoor fitness amenities, and rentable event space. These community service efforts may be assisted through partnerships with the School of Agriculture and Applied Sciences.

Academically, the campus offers state-of-the-art class labs, simulation labs, and research space, supported by enhanced student life amenities including on-site food service, a fitness space, and enhanced open spaces and trails for socializing and outdoor recreation.

Ongoing partnership efforts with the adjacent community college provide both institutions with the means to advance enrollment pipeline efforts and share resources that support student success. A new residence hall may accommodate growing enrollments at one or both institutions.

Serve the campus and broader community with a fitness trail, potentially in partnership with Copiah-Lincoln
