Rethinking the Four-Year Degree: Tucson, Arizona

Redesigning the undergraduate experience to serve learner, employer and community needs 

How might we build a low-cost, career-focused Catholic University degree offering alongside local employers, students, and learning partners in Tucson?

Overview

The Catholic University of America is designing, building, and launching a low-cost, high-quality undergraduate business degree program in Tucson for trailblazers and future leaders. The program has been shaped in collaboration with students, business leaders, and multiple community organizations. The hybrid online and in-person program, delivered in partnership with Pima Community College, will offer emerging leaders of Tucson not only the knowledge and skills to be successful in their business careers, but also deep work experiences with local enterprises and a strong network of life-long peer and broader community connections.
