Dear Ravens:
Welcome to the 2026-2027 academic year at Franklin Pierce University.
Please know that this catalog can directly help you and serve as an important tool and guide throughout the year. Inside, you’ll find information on academic degree programs, specific courses, majors, minors, and also certificates that will help you intentionally choose and shape your academic path. This, of course, leads to your career path after FPU.
As you progress through your programs, please remember to take advantage of the resources available to you. Whether you need academic assistance, personal support, or guidance in overcoming challenges, faculty and staff across all FPU colleges, Centers, and more can directly assist. We are all committed not only to your academic growth but also to your personal and professional goals. Your overall success and well-being are our top priorities.
No matter where you are studying—on our Rindge Campus, online, or at one of our Academic Centers— you are recognized and valued at Franklin Pierce University.
Wishing you all the best for the year ahead, and I hope to see in person this year. Work hard, never give up.
Kind regards.
Dr. Peter A. Eden
