  • 2021-2022 Undergraduate Catalog
    2021-2022 Undergraduate Catalog Point Park University Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania The University Seal Point Park University’s seal retains several elements from the seal of Point Park College. These include the escutcheon with the inverted furca (fork) as its ensign. The inverted furca represents salvation flowing from above and embracing the world below. This furca also draws obvious attention to the Monongahela, Allegheny and Ohio Rivers and their confluence at Point Park, the triangular spot of land in downtown Pittsburgh that gave the University its name. The three scrolls contained within the escutcheon articulate the goals of a Point Park University education and express that a Point Park education stands for the benefit of knowledge, the community and careers. This catalog is the official announcement of Point Park University (a tax-exempt, not-for-profit, educational institution) for the academic year 2021-2022.. The University reserves the right to repeal, change, or amend the rules, regulations, and provisions contained in this catalog, and may withdraw or modify the programs and courses listed herein.

  • The Original Women of Spirit, the Stories of Our Founders
    Original women of Spirit The stories of twelve Sisters of Mercy who inspire our university Carlow University traces its Mercy identity to a courageous group of women who, moved by the need for higher education for the Catholic women of Pittsburgh, dared to create a college with scant resources but with great hope and trust. These are their stories—our founders and early faculty members. The gift of their educational excellence, generosity, perseverance, and engagement with each new challenge and opportunity has blossomed into the university we know today. Sister Clare Besterman Sister Clare Besterman, the creator of the Mount Mercy College seal, was born Miss Julia Besterman of Sewickley. She was one of 13 children and became a Sister of Mercy over her parents’ objections. Sister Clare was artistically gifted, not only as a painter but as a pianist and singer as well. She received a bachelor’s degree in art from the University of Notre Dame and a master’s from Carnegie Institute of Technology. Affected by an infection which destroyed her hip joint, she wore a heavy brace from hip to ankle. Returning from the hospital with this devise, she set up her studio and welcomed her students. When the pain from her hip became severe, she would sit at the piano and sing. Sister Clare founded the college’s art department. Mother Rose Curran Mother Rose began her ministerial career in education but was soon attracted to the nursing profession. She graduated from Mercy Hospital School of Nursing and joined the clinical staff at the hospital.

  • Get Ready for Something More. I Know You’Re Getting a Lot of College Brochures in the Mail
    Get ready for something more. I know you’re getting a lot of college brochures in the mail. When I was in high school, I did too. And sometimes, it felt like everyone was saying the same thing. Here’s the thing. Duquesne really is different. And I love it. I want to tell you why Duquesne was the right choice for me. And it might just be the right choice for you, too. An experience that will define you. 1 this campus My senior year of high school, I applied to a lot of schools. Nearly a dozen. I wanted to keep my options open. But as soon as I stepped foot on Duquesne’s campus for a tour, my decision was made. I knew this would be my college home. Duquesne is this beautiful campus on a hill, overlooking downtown Pittsburgh, South Side and one of the city’s three rivers. And if you take a five-minute walk down the hill (we call it the Bluff), you’re in the middle of everything the city has to offer. A location that will inspire you. 4 Home away from home. Big city life with a small town feel. I love going to Dukes games I can walk to an internship right downtown and watching my friends play I live for the Chobani This is where I take my favorite yogurt bar in the Union It’s great to be within walking distance class on Tuesdays and Thursdays of Steelers, Pirates and Pens games Market Square has awesome The views from Pittsburgh’s It’s so great to run into friends cafes and restaurants riverfront trails are just the best walking down A-Walk I hit the gym at the Power Center From Lady Gaga to the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, entertainment options are endless DU IS RIGHT HERE 5 6 We believe that Straight to the Core rigorous academics Duquesne’s core curriculum provides all students, lead to your success.
