Concordia College is excited to announce several new academic, athletic, musical, and co-curricular programs that build on the tradition of excellence, allowing students to pursue their passions and meet the evolving workforce needs.
“In a time when budget challenges are leading many institutions to cut academic and athletic programs, Concordia is charting a new path — we are investing to grow,” said President Colin Irvine.
Beginning in 2024, students can explore a range of innovative, interdisciplinary programs that are market-smart and that lead to high-demand jobs.
