About

Now in its sixth decade, the University of Hartford (UHart) sits proudly on a 350-acre main campus that includes parts of Hartford, West Hartford and Bloomfield. It provides a beautifully landscaped vista with grassy expanses and wooded areas with a branch of the Park River winding through it.

Despite its bucolic setting and relatively small size, UHart offers a dynamic student experience charged with diversity in its programs, activities, and student body. International and U.S. students of color comprise 43 percent of all undergraduates.

At the University of Hartford, students pursue a wide range of interests and talents. They are dance team members who major in accounting, division basketball players who study biomedical engineering, and health science majors who teach English in Ecuador and plan to join the Peace Corps.

Alumni include Broadway and film actors, opera standouts, internationally known artists and musicians, professional all-star athletes, successful business entrepreneurs, award-winning teachers and nurses, engineers who make groundbreaking discoveries and doctors who are leaders in their fields.

The University of Hartford provides a robust, distinctive educational experience for its more than 4,000 undergraduate and 1,700 graduate students. Distinguished faculty provide rigorous instruction as well as research, performance and internship opportunities in more than 100 degree programs in the arts, humanities, business, education, health, and engineering and technology professions. With students from 48 states and 63 countries, we are a university for the world.

Program Info

The College of Arts and Sciences offers programs for students to earn a B.A. in English or Mathematics while also earning a certification to teach those subjects in grades 7-12. Students complete rigorous university coursework with small class sizes in English/Mathematics, education pedagogy, and liberal arts while also participating in fieldwork throughout their four years in the program. The field work gives students hands-on experience immediately and allows them to apply what they learn in the university classroom. During the students' last year in the program, the teacher candidates are gradually released into a secondary setting as student teachers. By their last semester, the candidates are teaching full time for 14 weeks. Students are prepared to make a difference in secondary settings as highly skilled, effective, compassionate, innovative teachers who become leaders in their schools. Beginning in the first semester and continuing throughout the program, students in the Mathematics program participate in diverse fieldwork placements in local urban and suburban schools, including a nationally recognized STEM magnet high school located on campus. Graduates of this program are well prepared to pursue a career as secondary teachers and to become change-agents in their schools and communities.
