Northern Arizona University - YumaRequirements
Northern Arizona University's (NAU) commitment to Yuma goes back to 1988 with the establishment of our campus here in the Southwestern Arizona border region. Our students come primarily from Yuma, La Paz, and Imperial Counties and, because of our location, live and study in a bi-national and multicultural environment that affords them opportunities to develop language and cultural skills that enhance their academic experience and employability.
Our strong partnerships with educational institutions in Sonora and Baja, Mexico help our students broaden their worldview and their understanding of transnational challenges. In 2006, NAU–Yuma was designated a branch campus by the Arizona Board of Regents, allowing us to tailor programming to better serve the needs of students and communities in the lower Colorado region. The campus is designated a Hispanic-Serving Institution (HSI) by the U.S. Department of Education.
Mission statement:
To provide outstanding education strengthened by scholarship, public service, and community engagement to enrich lives and create opportunities in Yuma and the surrounding border region.
Values:
- Student success: Place learner needs at the center of our academic and service planning, policies, and programs
- Integrity: Operate with fairness, honesty, and the highest ethical standards to sustain a community of trust
- Diversity: Achieve multicultural and global understanding as a priority of educational and civic life
- Educational access: Provide all qualified students with access to higher education
- Community engagement: Assist the community in its efforts to improve quality of life
- Civility: Support a safe, engaging, and respectful campus climate and a commitment to the community
- Excellence in education: We commit to the highest quality in all endeavors
Although located several hours south of the main Northern Arizona University campus, our standards are exactly the same. Our purpose within the NAU community is to provide an outstanding undergraduate education strengthened by scholarship, graduate and professional programs, and innovative methods of delivery in Yuma and the surrounding region.
