Eastern Nazarene College is a fully accredited Christian liberal arts college with over 50 undergraduate, graduate, and adult studies programs. For nearly 120 years, ENC has prepared students for lives of leadership and service.
Eastern Nazarene College has been committed to providing the best in education, creating an environment in which students are taught by exemplary faculty, have a compelling curriculum, enjoy rich learning experiences, and can excel in developing their intellectual gifts. The uniqueness of our mission comes from integrating ‘the best in education’ with the ‘best in Christianity’ to be a place where the pursuit of truth and the pursuit of the One who is the Truth are equally valued – to be a place where the educational vision is grand enough to include expanding the mind and shaping the soul.
Today, students drawn from 14 foreign nations and 36 U.S. states are prepared both intellectually and spiritually to lead in the 21st century. The faculty is dedicated to every student’s success with 95% of graduates employed or are in graduate school upon graduation.
Students have undertaken internships at:
Other students have pursued graduate programs at Harvard Medical School, MIT, and Oxford.
Graduates go on to pursue successful careers within their fields of degree and are able to bring transformational change within the organizations they are in.
Drawn from a variety of faith backgrounds, Eastern Nazarene College supports students in their spiritual development, providing them with opportunities to live their faith.
Student-led summer ministry teams travel to camps and churches on the east coast, a long-standing tradition and valuable experiential learning for those interested. Other students participate in mission trips called FUSION. The FUSION program is designed to give students an opportunity to connect with the activity of God in contexts that cause them to cross a boundary of difference.
In 2018 and 2019, teams sent to Zambia, led by psychology professor Dr. Catherine Bell and soccer coach Mark Bell, assisted a Christian relief agency to provide food, bed nets, school visits, and home visits to those affected with HIV/AIDS.
