Herzing University
Herzing University was one of the first post-secondary
institutions founded to train students for the computer industry.
The first Herzing University was founded as a computer
programming school in 1965 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, by Henry and
Suzanne Herzing. Since then, Herzing University has grown from a
modest classroom to a progressive leader in career education. The
Herzing University system now includes campuses in eight U.S.
states, located in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana,
Minnesota, Omaha, Ohio and Wisconsin. In addition, there are four
Canadian campuses in the provinces of Quebec, Ontario, and
Manitoba. For distance learners, Herzing Online offers more than
30 different academic programs.
While expanding its campuses, Herzing also diversified its
educational programs to include the fields of business
management, electronics, health care, design and public safety.
It also raised the level of credentials from not only diplomas,
but also bachelors of science degrees and associate of science
degrees at all its U.S. campuses. In addition, Herzing Online
offers an MBA with three different concentrations.
