Founded in 1898, Husson was originally named Shaw School of Business and was located on the second floor of a building in downtown Bangor. Enrollment was low until after World War II when its reputation grew as a business school. In 1953 the Maine Legislature authorized the school, now known as Husson College, to grant Bachelor of Science degrees. It became a university in 2008.
Today the University has four colleges, and two schools: the College of Business, the College of Health and Education, the College of Science and Humanities, the School of Pharmacy, and the New England School of Communications. The New England School of Communications, known by its abbreviation NESCom, was an independent school acquired by Husson in 1997 and was separately accredited and operated semi-autonomously with control over its own tuition, hiring, admissions, and graduation requirements until 2014.
Since our founding in 1898, Husson University has transformed students’ lives. We do this by inspiring and preparing students for professional careers in current and emerging fields as part of an education informed by the sciences and humanities.
We have a long-standing commitment to extraordinary teaching and experiential learning. Our students learn hands-on in all of our programs in the areas of business, legal studies, communications, education, health, pharmacy, science and humanities, and technology.
We’re also committed to ensuring that a Husson degree remains accessible to our students. Our careful stewardship of university resources has enabled us to remain the lowest-priced private university accredited by the New England Commission of Higher Education in Maine.
Husson has helped thousands of students to benefit from the transformative power of education. We’re committed to making the strategic decisions now that will allow us to continue transforming lives well into the future.
