“The same emphases that define CBU’s undergraduate program — critical thinking, hands-on experience, and ethical context — carry through in its master’s-level programs. In step with our Lasallian tradition, we strive to provide our graduate students with individual attention as they pursue a practical, real-world education." Dr. John Smarrelli, president, CBU
Christian Brothers University has been active in Memphis since 1871, but its legacy stretches much farther. The institution itself has been around for more than three centuries. To continue its tradition of education, Christian Brothers University has created a vast curriculum of graduate level programs spanning topics as diverse as accountancy to the arts. The college has three main criteria for its educational quality — critical thinking, hands-on experience, and ethical context — and aims to convey those values through each of its graduate pathways.
