Years of history and education
In the early 1980s, amidst a wave of technological advancement and societal change, a group of visionary educators and entrepreneurs came together with a shared dream: to establish an institution that would redefine the landscape of higher education and empower individuals to shape the future.
On January 10, 1985, their vision became a reality with the founding of New States Continental University (NSU). Nestled in the picturesque town of Hockessin, Delaware, NSU quickly garnered attention for its innovative approach to learning, its commitment to excellence, and its unwavering dedication to student success.
From its inception, NSU set itself apart as a trailblazer in the field of education. Drawing inspiration from the rapidly evolving world of technology, NSU embraced innovation in all its forms, pioneering new teaching methodologies, and leveraging cutting-edge tools and resources to enhance the learning experience.
One of NSU’s earliest breakthroughs came in the form of its interdisciplinary approach to education. Recognizing that the most pressing challenges facing society could not be solved within the confines of traditional academic silos, NSU established a framework that encouraged collaboration across disciplines and fostered creativity and innovation.
Over the years, NSU continued to push the boundaries of what was possible in higher education. In the 1990s, the university launched its first online learning platform, providing students with the flexibility to pursue their studies from anywhere in the world. This groundbreaking initiative paved the way for NSU to become a leader in distance education and laid the foundation for its future success in the digital age.
As the 21st century unfolded, NSU remained at the forefront of educational innovation, embracing emerging technologies such as virtual reality, artificial intelligence, and augmented reality to create immersive learning experiences that transcended the limitations of traditional classrooms.
Today, New States Continental University stands as a beacon of excellence in higher education, renowned for its forward-thinking approach, its commitment to diversity and inclusion, and its unwavering dedication to preparing students for success in an ever-changing world.
As NSU looks to the future, its legacy of innovation continues to inspire generations of students, faculty, and staff to dream big, think boldly, and make a positive impact on the world. With its rich history and boundless potential, New States Continental University remains dedicated to shaping the leaders of tomorrow and empowering minds to change the world.
