Since 1949, Grand Canyon University has been a premier private university in Arizona, helping students find their purpose and achieve their potential through landing the career of their dreams, advancing their career, and changing careers. Recently, GCU has invested funds in improving inline platforms, building new sports facilites and an all new Engineering facility, and constructing 30 on-campus housing options.
Grand Canyon University prepares learners to become global citizens, critical thinkers, effective communicators, and responsible leaders by providing an academically challenging, values-based curriculum from the context of our Christian heritage. GCU offers over 300 academic programs. While the school is clearly dedicated to academic achievement and excellence, the student body is also dedicated to outreach as it shares Christ's love within and outside of the campus community. GCU is future-oriented. According to the school's president, "Ours is a Christ-centered community with an atmosphere of constant transformation and innovation that instills a sense of purpose and vocational calling in our students."
