Your onward and upward await

We're here to work

Bloomsburg University was founded on the belief that opportunity is created by those determined to achieve more. And because our grads make a difference from their first day on the job, employers put a high value on a Bloom degree … and the person who earned it.

Undergraduate Programs

You’ll always have options at Bloomsburg. If you’re passionate about it, you can study it. Your BU experience is designed to push you, inspire you, and prepare you for whatever is up ahead.

Your climb to the top continues here

From spending time on campus in the fall to the late nights laughing in the lab over failed projects, every moment here will be remembered fondly. Getting to live so close to the best people I've ever met has been the greatest experience of my life. I’ll miss all of the clubs and organizations that accepted me as family, and all of the faculty and staff that welcomed me and worked with me to create the best version of myself.

Electronics Engineering Technology

BU shaped me into the man I am today. I found myself during my undergrad. I’ve gained many skills in the classroom, but outside of the classroom I gained confidence and soft skills. The thing I’m going to miss most about Bloomsburg is all of the organizations I was a part of and the faculty I had a relationship with.

Digital Forensics and Cybersecurity

I’ve changed significantly due to my BU experience. I had the opportunity to not only explore various academic fields that truly connected to my core values, morals, and ethics, but my identity, my standpoint in society, self-healing. I’m extraordinarily grateful for my experiences and my personal growth and development over the last five years.

English and Communication Studies

I’m going to miss this beautiful campus. The split between the residential side and academic side makes it well laid out. The grounds crew does a great job with the landscaping to keep the campus beautiful year-round. I'll miss going for walks around campus. I use the idea of a well laid out campus as a selling point on my tours.

Geography and Planning

There's no doubt in my mind the friends I've made here will be my forever friends. I refer to them as my chosen family, because it's the perfect way to describe my love for them. I'll miss everyone and everything about Bloomsburg, and it'll always be my home away from home.
