Company description:
A Master's I university accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, Georgia Southern offers 130 academic majors in a comprehensive array of baccalaureate degrees and selected master's and doctoral programs. The University has earned national accreditation in 79 program areas from 20 accrediting bodies. Academic programs are organized in seven Colleges: Business Administration, Education, Health and Human Sciences, Information Technology, Liberal Arts and Social Sciences, the Allen E. Paulson College of Science and Technology, and the Jack N. Averitt College of Graduate Studies. The University awarded 2,340 degrees in 2002-03.
A residential university with a projected Fall 2003 enrollment of over 15,000 students, Georgia Southern is the largest university in the southern half of Georgia and, apart from the four research universities, the most comprehensive center of public higher education in the state. One of the top choices in Georgia for new freshmen, including HOPE Scholars, Georgia Southern enrolls an increasingly selective student body representing all of Georgia, 48 states, and more than 75 nations. Nine out of 10 undergraduates are full-time students. The University is enhancing its academic profile through higher admission standards, an expanded Honors Program, and scholarships for academically-talented students.
Georgia Southern's hallmark is a superior undergraduate experience emphasizing academic distinction, excellent teaching, and student success. The University's graduate programs are offered on campus, at satellite centers, and by distance and on-line delivery to expand advanced education and develop professional leadership in fields critical to regional development. Georgia Southern approaches its 2006 centennial with a strategic plan to advance the University to the top tier of national rankings in its class.
The 634-acre park-like campus continues an era of capital construction that has opened new facilities for colleges and academic programs, student recreation and development, University housing, athletics, and public service. The learning environment is enhanced by a museum of cultural and natural history, a botanical garden, a unique wildlife education center, an 850-seat performing arts theater and a new continuing education and conference center. The University's Division I athletic teams compete in the Southern Conference. The campus is located in Statesboro, a safe, hospitable Main Street community of 30,000, an hour from historic Savannah and beach resorts, and approximately 200 miles from Atlanta.
