Our real-world academic enrichment opportunities are designed to challenge students and enhance their personal and professional educational experience.

      TU encourages students to give back to the community and see societal problems through a different lens.

    • Pursue success with confidence — backed by TU’s job placement guarantee.

      TU is committed to our students’ professional success, which is why our Center for Career Development, aka CaneCareers, offers a job placement guarantee program. We promise that students who follow the program will land an entry-level job in their chosen field or continue their education within six months of graduation, or we’ll give them a free semester of grad school.
