WIDENER UNIVERSITY

Founded in Wilmington, DE, in 1821, Widener Uni-versity is comprised of eight schools and colleges that offer liberal arts and sciences, professional and pre-professional curricula. A private, nonprofit, doctoral/research intensive institution chartered in both Pennsylvania and Delaware, Widener is a three-campus university offering programs of study leading to associate’s, bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral degrees. The university’s schools include the College of Arts and Sciences, School of Business Administration, School of Engineering, School of Hospitality Management, School of Human Service Professions, School of Law, School of Nurs-ing, and University College. The Pennsylvania legislature granted the institution a universal charter on April 8, 1862. In 1867, Pennsylvania Military Academy (1862-1892) purchased 20 acres of land in Chester, PA, on the same site that is today the core of the university’s 100-acre main campus, and became Pennsylvania Military College (1892-1966). In 1966, Pennsylvania Military College officially be-came PMC Colleges (1966-1972). The name Pennsylvania Military College was retained for the all-male, cadet college and Penn Morton College was adopted for a coeducational civilian component. The modern structure of the university was introduced in 1972, when the cadet corps was disbanded and the academic offerings were reorganized into the forerunners of today’s schools and colleges. Concomitantly, the name Widener College (1972-1979) was adopted in recognition of Philadelphia’s Widener family, a descendant of whom served as chair for the university’s Board of Trustees. In recognition of its comprehensive offerings, Widener College became Widener University in 1979. Graduate programs were introduced in 1967 with a master’s program in engineering, followed by the M.B.A., and then by some 60 additional master’s and doctoral programs, most begun in the 1980s. The university acquired its 40-acre suburban Wilming-ton, Delaware, campus in 1976 for the School of Law, a branch of University College, and graduate offerings from the School of Business Administration. The Harrisburg Campus, located on 20 acres northeast of the city, opened in the fall of 1989 and now houses a branch of the School of Law and master’s level nursing courses. All other academic programs are offered on the Main Campus in Chester.
