University of San Francisco Academia

I am going to explore the University of San Francisco's academic prowess in this article. We will be taking excerpt's in there site to examine more thoroughly.


At the University of San Francisco, we’re not teaching students what to think, we’re teaching them how to think.
Our style of education is deeply challenging and personal, where students and faculty work together to create an experiential academic environment. The result is a unique culture of mutual accountability between you and your professors.
All five USF schools—the College of Arts and Sciences, the School of Education, the School of Law, the School of Management, and the School of Nursing and Health Professions—design rigorous curricula that equip graduates with the market-ready know-how, communication skills and professional opportunities to be successful leaders in their first career and their next.

There are five academic school's at USF;

1. College of Art's and Science's

It is USF's vision as a premier Jesuit Catholic, urban university with a global perspective to educate leaders who will fashion a more humane and just world.
Leading the way in this effort are our outstanding faculty. In recent years, our teacher-scholars have garnered unprecedented national recognition-winning national awards; receiving major new grants and prestigious Fulbright scholarships; and premiering in major art venues and film festivals around the globe.

2.  School of Education

The School of Education celebrates four decades of involved teachers, devoted leaders and caring counselors.
Our faculty and students are scholars and social justice advocates engaged within the diverse San Francisco Bay area and beyond. With over twenty masters and doctoral programs, including programs at our branch campuses and online, we welcome students who seek to make an impact and who are committed to serving those most in need.

3. School of Law

Mission

The University of San Francisco School of Law strives for excellence in education underscored by a deep commitment to justice.
The law school pursues excellence in a humane, diverse, and intellectually vibrant learning community of outstanding teachers and scholars dedicated to training ethical professionals. Consistent with the Jesuit tradition, the law school contributes to society by inspiring the pursuit of justice and serving the many communities—from the academic to the professional and the local to the global—of which it is a part.

4. The School of Management

Be a leader. Build productive and compassionate organizations. Be a force for positive change in the world.
The University of San Francisco’s School of Management is at the epicenter of global innovation and can help you develop the skills to excel in today’s dynamic business, government and nonprofit environments. Our internationally recognized faculty is committed to teaching you what you need to succeed, including the hallmarks of Jesuit education — social justice and global citizenship.

5. The School of Nursing and Health Professions

We’ve created a strong nursing and health professions community committed to a life of learning built on a foundation of innovative ideas that stay true to our core Jesuit values.
Our graduates are pragmatic problem solvers, trained to be transformational leaders, and prepared for the challenges of an evolving health care system.
Our fieldwork and clinical training take place in the top medical centers of the Bay Area, a state-of-the art Simulation Lab, and the richly diverse communities of San Francisco.

The baccalaureate degree in nursing, master’s degree in nursing and the Doctor of Nursing Practice at the University of San Francisco School of Nursing and Health Professions are accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (http://www.aacn.nche.edu/ccne-accreditation).
