Welcome from the Dean

As the interim Dean of Campus and 社区 Relations, I welcome you to Ohio University 南部. The 南部 campus has served the tri-state area of Ohio, 肯塔基州, and West Virginia for over 65 years, and I am honored to have the opportunity to serve our students, 我们的校园, and our community. As I think about the campus’s past and present, I am confident in the value of a degree from Ohio University 南部 and about the promise of success for our students. I am also excited for future possibilities and potential partnerships that can help the campus grow and meet the needs of our ever-changing workforce and that can help elevate the economic and cultural development of the tri-state area.

One of the greatest features about the 南部 campus is the variety of programs we offer. There are approximately 30 associate and bachelor’s degrees in technical and workforce areas as well as the traditional liberal arts. Our programs prepare students for careers in a variety of fields in business, 教育, 护理, 通信, criminal justice, health services, 社会工作, electronic media, environmental engineering technology, 马的研究, 和历史. Our students have found jobs immediately upon graduation in local schools and universities, area hospitals and medical facilities, mental health and counseling services, local businesses, 公共服务, and community action groups. Many students have continued their 教育s in various graduate studies and law programs. The 南部 campus strives to meet the needs of our traditional and non-traditional students and to support the community.

As a regional campus of Ohio University, 南部 prides itself on providing a quality, practical 教育 at an affordable price. We distribute different types of scholarships and have expanded the Pell grant program to aid students in their 教育. 在南, our experienced and highly educated faculty and our talented staff members are dedicated to serving the students and the community.

I am grateful for the opportunity to ensure the access and quality mission of Ohio University 南部, and I encourage you to reach out to our faculty and staff as you explore your 教育al and career options. We are here to help you succeed.
