We prepare students to succeed

Learn to think critically and move confidently from the classroom to the boardroom

Student success is our first priority, and we designed our programs and facilities to achieve that goal. Learning and professional development happen inside and outside the classroom, so internships are an integral part of a Lutgert education. Learning to apply classroom theory to real-world challenges gives you a significant advantage in the job market. That's the Lutgert difference.

Our programs prepare graduates to thrive professionally and become the leaders of tomorrow
