Congratulations to Trine University students, faculty and staff for the great news from the Higher Learning Commission (HLC). Thanks to the efforts of a steering committee and the campus community, Trine has received continued accreditation from the Higher Learning Commission (ncahlc.org). Trine received the good news in December.
After a two-day visit by peer reviewers in September, Trine earned accreditation for a decade, the maximum number of years. Trine has been accredited by the HLC since 1966. Visiting HLC teams certify organizational quality by reviewing institutional policies and procedures and interviewing faculty, staff, students, administrators and the Board of Trustees.
Trine University has received a $100,000 contribution from Honda toward its new John and Mary Pellegrino Student Design and Training Center (Pellegrino Center).
Originally from Sri Lanka, Jithmie Jayawickrema completed her undergraduate degree at Indiana University in Bloomington, closing out a long tennis career that took her around the world.
Trine University has received approval from the Indiana State Board of Nursing to offer its Associate of Science in Nursing (ASN) program at its Brooks College of Health Professions facility.
