School of Communications
All School of Communications programs deliver market-driven knowledge and expertise and provide strong emphasis on experiential learning in our world-sized classroom. Our model of communications education takes our students beyond the ordinary to learn and apply their knowledge in real communications and media settings.
The School of Communications offers industry-staple programs in journalism, public relations, media studies, and film, television and media arts.

School of Computing & Engineering
The School of Engineering prepares graduates to face the technological, scientific and logistical obstacles of the 21st century. Through an interdisciplinary approach that combines heavy collaboration, hands-on learning and cutting-edge facilities, we teach students to be both expert and innovator, builder and technician, as well as creative thinker.
The School of Engineering’s spacious and modern facilities epitomize experiential and collaborative learning, and are designed to accommodate both solo projects and large group work. With all of the state-of-the-art tools and resources of a practicing engineer at their disposal, from fully operational production lines to high-definition 3D printers and high-powered laser cutters, students of each engineering discipline are presented with numerous opportunities to design and build, or analyze and explore.
School of Business
At Quinnipiac’s School of Business, our point of difference is clear. We provide an education that closely tracks what the markets require, experiential learning opportunities to be able to apply that knowledge, and expansive relationships with the top companies to help you gain experience through internships and then land your first job.
The Terry W. Goodwin ’67 Financial Technology Center, located in the Lender School of Business Center, is a technologically sophisticated hands-on classroom for learning how financial markets tick. Featuring state-of-the-art investment and trading center designed to incorporate both team-based and individual research and analysis, 40 professional workstations with real-time access to financial market data feeds, including 12 Bloomberg Professional Terminals and unlimited access to S&P Capital IQ for financial, accounting and industry data, students can engage in trading simulations, financial modeling, economic analysis and stock valuation that bridge the gap between theory and practice.
Recreation and Wellness Center
The Athletic and Recreation Center houses the Burt Kahn Court, locker rooms, training rooms and athletics staff offices. It also includes a multipurpose surface used for volleyball, tennis and basketball; suspended walking track; combination large weight room and exercise center; and two multipurpose dance/aerobics studios. Six lighted tennis courts and a range of outdoor courts and fields are nearby.
Want to work out in between classes or relieve some stress during exam season? Our fitness centers offer the right equipment and classes to keep your body and your mind operating at peak performance throughout the school year. If you want to be part of a team, we also offer 14 intramural sports opportunities, from field hockey and flag football to tennis and tailgate games.
Division I Athletics
Our 21 Division I teams will give you something to cheer about. It’s easy to be a fan on the Mount Carmel Campus, which houses the Quinnipiac Soccer & Lacrosse Stadium, Field Hockey Stadium, Rugby Field, Outdoor Tennis Facility, Burt Kahn Court, and baseball and softball fields.
MountainView Residence Hall
The Mountainview Residence Hall features 46 coed suites, each housing eight students. Each suite contains four bedrooms and a common living area, a bathroom and storage area.
Mountainview also offers several common areas throughout the building with kitchen areas on the second and third levels, and a spacious courtyard.
Bobcat
Throughout our three campuses is an indelible symbol of strength, intelligence and determination: the nimble bobcat. Perched on a few rocks in the center of Bobcat Way on our Mount Carmel Campus, the bobcat statue stands in the midst of our residential area as a vivid representation of our university’s central mission: an education embodying an unwavering commitment to high-quality academics, a student-oriented environment and a strong sense of community. Legend suggests that the bobcat allows no harm to come to those in its presence. You will find another bobcat on our York Hill Campus outside our sports center, bringing luck to our hockey and basketball teams. Thousands of more bobcats can be spotted on chairs, in lighting fixtures and throughout the architecture of our campuses.
Bobcat Den
The Bobcat Den is the perfect location to eat fast, or sit and enjoy a full meal. It boasts a full deli-bar with a variety of subs and wraps made to order all day and an Au Bon Pain soup station. The Diner Express offers traditional entrees as well as classic grilled sandwiches and sides. Additionally, the Diner Express grill features breakfast all day, which can be ordered via kiosk. And the Starbucks station features premium coffee drinks, freshly made smoothies and milk shakes.
More than a dining option, the Bobcat Den is also a low-key spot to relax and take a break from mid-terms, finals or end-of semester projects. Take advantage of the Wi-Fi and pick out a comfortable study spot, or catch a game on the high-definition TV.
College of Arts and Sciences
Interdisciplinary learning, collaborative, student-focused classrooms and highly personalized academic advising are what constitute the Quinnipiac difference. A degree from the College of Arts and Sciences is more than just a sequence of courses and exams; it is a set of experiences — both in and out of the classroom — that help you to develop academically, socially and professionally.
Dean Robert W. Evans College of Arts and Sciences Center, buildings 1, 2 and 3, houses classrooms, faculty offices and the Catholic Chapel and Center for Religion. It is the central location for the College of Arts and Sciences.
Carl Hansen Student Center
Carl Hansen Student Center contains a bookstore, post office, bank and student lounge areas. Student media and government, and other campus organizations are on the second floor.
On our campuses, the places you eat are also some of the best places to gather, laugh, relax or study in comfort. Our dining spaces are more than just cafeterias or food courts. Take Revolution Noodle and Sushi — located just above our Mount Carmel Dining Hall. It offers students a variety of culinary options in a relaxing environment. Why is that? Because after a tough workout or study session, you need a place to both unwind and replenish your mind and body; because wrestling with the blank page is always easier in a comfortable booth with a hot cup of coffee and a freshly baked pastry; because great friends and great environments are what turn “grabbing food” into a real meal.
The Carl Hansen Student Center also offers a full-service Starbucks café on top of an already lengthy list of offerings. This means that the global roasts, cold brews, and crafted cappuccinos and lattes you love will be available whenever the mood strikes you — morning, noon or night.
Arnold Bernhard Library
Arnold Bernhard Library, marked by the clock tower with the Nils Sahlin Carillon, forms part of the University Quadrangle. The library also houses the Lender Family Special Collection Room with artwork from the Great Hunger plus the Learning Commons, Bursar, Registrar, Student Administrative Services, Information Services, Technology Center and the Executive Office Suite.
The Learning Commons is a rich hub of resources where you will receive guidance on assignments and course work as you cultivate your individual learning preferences. With locations on both the Mount Carmel and North Haven campuses, the Learning Commons provides a range of educational support and enrichment programs that emphasize student interaction and Quinnipiac’s culture of excellence.
The Learning Commons sets Quinnipiac apart. With a wide range of academic support services available for all students, the Learning Commons is focused on student success, using the term in its full measure and not simply as a stand in for grades and GPA.
Mount Carmel Quad
The Mount Carmel Quad is the heart of our Mount Carmel Campus, where undergraduate students first experience their new home away from home.
The picturesque quad at the foothills of the Sleeping Giant Mountain is where many students first fall in love with our university — and where most of our first- and second-year students live.
The sprawling lawns lead to the Carl Hansen Student Center — which has a full dining hall, space for our nearly 150 student organizations and spots for connecting with friends — academic buildings and the 600-seat Arnold Bernhard Library.
