Local Impact
Global Connections

Situated just outside Philadelphia in South Jersey, our connection to Camden goes far beyond our physical campus. We live, work, research, and play in ways that reflect our deep ties to the city and its resilient, determined spirit. Interwoven into Camden’s history and culture, we embrace what it means to be Camden Proud, creating a foundation of local impact that strengthens both the city and our campus.

This connection extends across the globe. Students from nearly every continent bring a dynamic exchange of ideas and cultures, while we take learning beyond the classroom to communities worldwide. Through internationalization, a key pillar of the campus strategic plan, we collaborate with the Office of International Students and offer opportunities that bridge local and global experiences. These efforts enrich education, advance understanding, and foster innovation on a global scale.
