uKNIGHTED in spirit

The Golden Knight represents us because the Knight is “always faithful, generous, brave and honorable.” We are a community founded on honor, courage and achievement; it’s the tradition you step into when you become a Golden Knight.

These values carry into athletics and academics, in our travels across the world and into the communities we serve. When you put on maroon and gold and gather– uKnighted in spirit–you become a part of that tradition. We can’t wait for you to become a Gannon Knight.

INSPIRING academic success

The interactions you have with your professors will be among your most important experiences at Gannon. We take the student-faculty ratio seriously and feel that a strong education stems from your professors getting to know you. We believe students learn best when faculty love teaching and are supported by their active research. Our faculty are experts in their field and are here to inspire you to question, learn, believe and achieve.

What’s Possible? You Name It! Think about what you love to study, or where you imagine yourself working, or what you want to accomplish in the future. It’s possible at Gannon. We offer 65 bachelor’s degrees and 46 minors, and eight 100% online degrees. Each of our majors includes opportunities to work and learn in professional settings.

Students and Professors Have you ever had a teacher who changed the course of your life? Such teachers are here at Gannon University.

With a low 13:1 student-to-faculty ratio, Gannon is a place where your professors’ first priority is your success. Don’t be surprised when your professors stop and chat with you in the hallways or remember you long after you’ve taken their classes. Gannon professors get to know you, learn about your goals, your accomplishments and your struggles. You’ll feel comfortable contributing to class discussions, speaking with your professors after class and working with them as you plan your career.

ANJALI SAHAY, PH.D., Faculty “One of the best ways to become global citizens is through roleplaying and simulation, and that’s a big part of Model U.N., where you can learn global issues while you’re right here on campus.

Participating in Model U.N. is an intensive learning experience in planning, budgeting, leadership, speaking and debating skills.”

Researching Side-by-Side How far can your research project at Gannon go? Maybe into the pages of a national, peer-reviewed professional journal, or 30 feet below the surface of the Caribbean Sea as you observe marine organisms and coral reefs. Your research might take you 4,000 years into the past at Gannon’s Bronze Age archaeological dig in Jordan. You don’t even have to leave campus to do groundbreaking biomedical research using motion-capture technology in Gannon’s Human Performance Laboratory. At Gannon, your professors enjoy learning right beside you, working with you to advance your knowledge in your chosen field.

Where can you find students of Gannon University’s College of Engineering and Business? They’re getting hands-on experience just blocks from campus in the headquarters of a Fortune 500 corporation. They are at the controls of a robot with advanced haptics technology that can be used to train surgeons in laparoscopic surgical procedures.

They’ve designed, built and launched an instrument package to near space on a NASA-funded project to livestream video of a solar eclipse for the first time. Gannon has been a regional leader in educating business leaders and engineering professionals. You can find these outstanding students at exceptional learning environments such as the Center for Advanced Engineering and the Center for Business Ingenuity, a gleaming building in the heart of Erie’s central business district. Some are using the same sophisticated software that powers the world’s largest corporations. Best of all, you can imagine yourself where they are–and where they’re going, boldly into the future.

Careers in the sciences, health and allied health professions are among the fastest-growing and most rewarding available today. Just ask the graduates of Gannon University’s Morosky College of Health Professions and Sciences.

Many of the College’s outstanding programs–from two-year associate degree programs to cooperative professional school programs–have placement rates for graduates at or near 100 percent. Historically, Gannon University graduates have an outstanding record of performance on licensing examinations and in placement to highly competitive graduate programs, and many have several job opportunities to choose from before graduation. Maybe it’s because Gannon’s exceptional learning environments offer hands-on learning experience–and not just in the classroom. The new Alstadt Environmental Center at the edge of the Allegheny National Forest has access to unique ecosystems, and Environaut, Gannon’s 48-foot research vessel, gives you a chance to study on the waters of the world’s largest freshwater ecosystem. It’s an exciting and rewarding educational experience that offers you a world of choices. #GUPossibilities 9
