- Mission
- Northeastern University's signature strengths are grounded in its character as an institution engaged with the world in unique ways that position our students and faculty for success in meeting 21st century challenges. Our students connect to the world through our renowned cooperative education program and other forms of experiential learning-student research, community service, and study abroad-that are fully integrated into our academic programs. Our century-old co-op program alone which enables students to gain up to 18 months of professional work experience related to their major or interest includes a network of more than 2,000 businesses, nonprofit institutions, and government agencies in nearly 500 communities around the world. Students bring the knowledge gained from these diverse experiences back to the classroom, adding power to their academic studies. The same focus on engaging the world drives our faculty research. Faculty members of Northeastern, frequently working in collaboration through one of our 37 interdisciplinary research centers, are motivated by the quest to develop applications that society will find useful. Our research and academic partnerships with businesses, government agencies, and universities around the world help us advance this agenda. We maximize the potential of fundamental research to translate abstract discoveries into innovative solutions. In the same way, our experience-based programs maximize the potential of our students by empowering them to discover their professional passion and achieve their life goals by putting their aspirations into action while they are still in school. They leave Northeastern more confident and more sophisticated about the world, better prepared for leadership and more astute in navigating career paths, wherever they may lead.
