President's Welcome
Welcome to the virtual home of Chatham University. Throughout this web site you will find information about our undergraduate and graduate degree programs, alumni news and notes, athletics and campus events.
For those of you visiting for the first time, allow me to note that this year marks our first as a University with three distinctive Colleges - Chatham College for Women
houses academic and co-curricular programs for undergraduate women and embodies the traditions and rituals of one of the nation’s oldest colleges for women. The College for Graduate Studies
offers women and men both master’s and doctoral programs. Programs within the College for Graduate Studies include concentrations in art and architecture, business, counseling psychology, health sciences and
nursing, teaching, and writing. The College for Continuing and Professional Studies provides online and hybrid undergraduate and graduate degree programs for women and men, certificate programs, and community programming.
I especially want to welcome prospective students who want to learn more about a Chatham education. Whether you are inquiring about the women’s undergraduate degree programs or our graduate and continuing education programs for women and men, this web site is designed to help you learn more about how you can grow professionally and personally at Chatham. Our admissions staff and faculty are dedicated to helping you obtain not only an education, but also a greater understanding of the complex world around us and a clearer path to your own future. I encourage you to explore this site and also schedule a visit to our 35-acre arboretum campus in Shadyside and meet with our faculty and staff.
For over 138 years Chatham University has endeavored to establish itself as a forward-thinking institution. What began as solely a women’s undergraduate college has grown to encompass almost 1,900 students in a women’s undergraduate college and coeducational graduate degree programs. On behalf of the Chatham College community, thanks for visiting and for your interest in Chatham University.
Esther L. Barazzone, Ph.D. President
