Mercyhurst graduate programs are known for their unique blend of theory and practical application, and for their broad appeal to traditional graduate students as well as early and mid-career professionals from a variety of fields.
Graduate study at Mercyhurst provides students with engaging learning experiences and unrivaled access to faculty. With a total graduate enrollment of about 200, students find a welcoming atmosphere and a high degree of camaraderie.
The programs in the administration of justice, organizational leadership, and special education have traditionally attracted mid-career professionals from the tri-state area who pursue graduate studies on a part-time basis. Today, each program also enrolls a substantial number of full-time students who either graduated from one of the region's colleges or universities, or returned to the area after completing their undergraduate studies elsewhere.
The programs in applied intelligence and anthropology draw both those early in their careers and recent college graduates from throughout the United States as well as Canada and other countries. All students attend on a full-time basis. Admission to both of these programs is very competitive.
