PSU: A New Kind of University
Plymouth State University (PSU) is breaking new ground for higher education. Students will graduate ready to participate in the workforce, understand the nuances of working with a variety of people, and make a positive difference in the state’s economy and, ultimately, its demographics. The University, regional businesses and non-profits, school districts, and towns are working collaboratively through the Cluster Model of Learning, helping businesses improve and energizing towns while giving students the chance to work with real-world challenges. As they weave theory with opportunities to apply that knowledge to a real-life challenge, PSU students will graduate with collaborative, problem-solving, and communication skills, deeper critical thinking, and the resilience to find solutions to future complex problems.

New Hampshire innovators and entrepreneurs will learn that PSU graduates bring new skills and collaborative multi-disciplinary knowledge that will improve their bottom line – and their community. With built-in connections to business, non-profit, and town organizations, and with a broader Career Development Office, students will be able to stay in NH to work in, strengthen, and create new businesses. It is a win-win-win for students, PSU, and the state.
