What we aim to solve

SOURCE: Self-reported by organization

LIU’s goals are to solidify its reputation as a competitive, nationally recognized, globally engaged teaching and research institution while simultaneously maintaining college affordability to attract highly qualified academic students. Since 2014, the institution has maintained a cap of 2% on tuition rate increases to maintain the affordability of a private LIU education.

College of Veterinary Medicine

At LIU’s College of Veterinary Medicine, one of only four such schools in the Northeast, students gain hands-on experience with small and large animals as early as their first semester. They actively participate in dozens of research initiatives, ranging from cell engineering and neuroscience to stem cell use in regenerative medicine and gene therapy. The College of Veterinary Medicine maintains strong partnerships with prominent hospitals in the Greater New York area and across the country, creating extensive experiential learning and networking opportunities for LIU’s veterinarians-in-training, which allow for collaborative efforts in both research and medical practice.

Since 1929, LIU Pharmacy has been preparing future pharmacists with the education necessary to succeed in this challenging and changing field. Students are exposed to advances in areas like chronic disease pharmacotherapy and pharmacy automation; provided opportunities to utilize data analytics and artificial/augmented intelligence; and encouraged to further advance the clinical progress achieved in delivering patient care.
In support of LIU’s commitment, the university has made investments in state-of-the-art technology to enhance the pharmacy curriculum. One example is LIU’s collaboration with Dassault Systèmes, a world leader in AI technologies. This partnership promises developments in research and education by enhancing LIU's offerings in digital health, personalized medicine, and drug discovery through an advanced learning lab.
With LIU Pharmacy’s strong history and firm grasp on the future, graduates are prepared and ready for the challenges of today and tomorrow.

Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

To guide our mission, we focus on four institutional goals as part of our strategic plan:
• Advance academic excellence through innovation
• Advance solutions for a sustainable global future
• Advance exceptional fiscal health and agility
• Advance student engagement through extraordinary and distinctive experiences

Long Island University is ranked in the top 7% of research institutions in the U.S. by the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education. It holds one of the four veterinarian colleges in the northeast. LIU is ranked prominently in US News and World Report, The Princeton Review and Forbes. LIU offers nearly 250 degree programs, with a network of over 285,000 alumni that includes industry leaders and entrepreneurs across the globe.
For nearly 100 years, Long Island University has been a leader in higher education, delivering research and academics with a high social impact.

Today, we continue to redefine higher education by offering elevated and in-demand course offerings, partnerships with renowned scientists and robust infrastructure projects, providing a rich and diverse environment in which to foster hands-on learning and thought-provoking discourse.

LIU is not just home to respected faculty, academic rigor and research acumen; it is also home to 39 Division I athletics teams. A robust student life across two main campuses provides students with a vibrant social experience.

LIU Brooklyn is located in the heart of the Downtown Brooklyn’s thriving Cultural District. It is ranked the third-safest campus in the nation and the safest in New York City by the Daily Beast website. The campus is a self-contained urban oasis just steps from world-class arts and entertainment venues like BAM and the Barclays Center and minutes from Manhattan. With more than 11,000 students, over 100 academic programs (including the Roc Nation School of Music, Sports and Entertainment), and a proud history of excellence in Division I athletics, LIU Brooklyn continues to build on its tradition of access and excellence to serve its students and the community at large.

Located on Long Island’s famed “Gold Coast,” the LIU Post campus covers 334 bucolic acres and comprises 47 buildings, 10 residence halls, and three historic mansions. Just 27 miles east of New York City, LIU Post is a scenic, historic, and scholarly campus that offers a small-school environment, but with the access and resources of a major private university. Resources like the Tilles Center for the Performing Arts, Long Island’s premier live entertainment venue; the Roosevelt School; and home of the prestigious George Polk Awards in Journalism.
