Dr. Richard Cosentino President, Lander University Lander University is a community where learning, energy and creativity flourish. Established over 140 years ago, Lander’s tradition of academic excellence is exemplified in its liberal arts and science programs, as well as professional programs in business, education and nursing.
Your Passport to a World of Possibilities. Imagine yourself at Lander – strolling down brick walkways worn smooth by time, passing by historic ivy-covered buildings, resting in the shadows of mighty oaks and surrounded by the friendly, warm voices of fellow students. You are at the very heart of Lander University and at the soul of what makes Lander perfect for you. While students are attracted to Lander for many reasons – its rich heritage, academic excellence, personal touch, athletic accomplishments – the underlying purpose of the university is to prepare you for a meaningful life and career. With about 2,700 students, Lander’s small class sizes and studentteacher ratio allow for one-on-one attention from experienced faculty who know our students aren’t just numbers. Rather, they
see our students as the teachers, lawyers, doctors, entertainers, business executives and community leaders of tomorrow. Join our students as they explore Machu Picchu on an Honors College study tour or carry out research in Greenwood’s internationally renowned Genetic Center. Attend a concert by England’s Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra or take in a Lander Bearcats basketball game. A degree from Lander opens the door to a world of possibilities, and we have a space reserved for you! This is Lander. Now discover your Lander.
