University of New England

From its College of Osteopathic Medicine and College of Health Professions to its newly established College of Pharmacy, UNE is recognized as a leading educator of healthcare professionals. 

In addition, UNE offers a comprehensive liberal arts education, with more than 30 undergraduate majors in its College of Arts & Sciences, such as environmental science, marine science, English, history, business, communication and education. 

UNE’s student-centered, interdisciplinary programs promote experiential learning, critical thinking, and lifelong service to community. Students enjoy a beautiful and supportive environment on the University’s waterfront campus in Biddeford and its historic Portland campus.
