學(xué)校介紹

CSPP was founded in 1969 with help from the California Psychological Association. CSPP was the nation's first independent graduate school of professional psychology.

The founders' premise was that the health care needs of society required a psychology training program blending professionalism and science in new and creative ways. Now more than 30 schools of professional psychology follow CSPP's model.

In the early 1970s, CSPP awarded AA, BA, MA, and PhD degrees. The school offered majors in clinical psychology, community psychology, developmental psychology, child and family life, the clinical practice of psychotherapy and assessment, and community change and organizational development. In the late 1970s and early 1980s, the school chose to offer study primarily in clinical psychology; at one point the only terminal degree offered was the PhD. In recent years, the university added programs in organizational studies, social and policy studies and education.

Students were admitted to the first campuses in San Francisco and Los Angeles in 1970. The San Diego campus was added in 1972 and the Fresno campus was founded in 1973. In 2000, CSPP changed its name to Alliant University. CSPP has trained over 6,000 professional psychologists, many of whom hold leadership positions in the field of mental health care in California and throughout the US.

The university that became USIU was founded in 1952 as California Western University. Sitting on 90 acres in the Point Loma area of San Diego, Cal Western was a liberal arts college that emphasized small classes taught by highly qualified faculty. Many students received individualized instruction.

In 1965, the University received a Federal land grant for a new campus in the Scripps Ranch area of San Diego.

[FS:PAGE]

In 1967, the University's name was changed to United States International University to reflect its expanded commitment to a global perspective. In 1968, construction began on the Scripps Ranch. The property, previously the site of Camp Elliott, a Marine Corps training facility, is now the home of Alliant's largest campus.

USIU had campuses throughout the United States and the world, including such places as Hawaii, Colorado, France, Canada, Palau, England and Japan. USIU offered bachelor's, master's and doctoral programs and granted degrees in business, education, psychology, international relations, performing and visual arts, and a number of other disciplines. USIU has a worldwide network of more than 20,000 alumni/alumnae who hold prominent positions in varied fields.

Alliant International University focuses on preparing students for professional careers in the applied social sciences. Our faculty, students and alumni are committed to making an impact on society and to results that make a difference in the lives of individuals, couples, families, schools, organizations, companies, and nations..

Our institution applies scholarship to solve social problems and has always had an abiding concern for diversity and internationalism.

Formed in July 2001 by the combination of the California School of Professional Psychology (CSPP) and United States International University (USIU), Alliant is an independent, not-for-profit institution of higher education with a history distinguished by innovation.

Alliant offers students a choice of six California campuses: Fresno, Irvine, Los Angeles, Sacramento, San Diego, and San Francisco.

Alliant also includes a Mexico City Campus. Alliant Mexico is distinguished by being the only university in Mexico authorized by law to offer all of its programs in English. Alliant Mexico is also the only university in Mexico all of whose programs are accredited by an American accrediting agency. Alliant also runs pioneering programs for psychologists in Tokyo, Japan and attracts professionals from across the US to its on-line program in psychopharmacology.

The Center for Undergraduate Education, (CUE) runs a degree-completion program on Alliant's San Diego Scripps Ranch campus for students in the last two years of their bachelor's degrees. The program has been designed as a fast track to either professional careers or an advanced professional degree, offered in collaboration with Alliant's graduate schools. Alliant's Mexico Campus offers four-year undergraduate bachelor's degrees.

Cooperative Undergraduate Programs: Alliant's Center for Undergraduate Education also runs cooperative degrees and programs with Ohlone College in the San Francisco Bay Area, with Southwestern Community College and the Sweetwater Union High School District near San Diego.

To ensure that students are ready to enroll after the first two undergrad years, Alliant has has developed “articulation” agreements with 30 community colleges. The agreements make sure that the courses at Alliant and the community colleges match up and that students don’t loose credit with courses that don’t count toward CUE enrollment. Alliant has agreements with Mesa College, Grossmont Cuyamaca Community College District and Imperial Valley College in the San Diego area.

Graduate Management Programs: Presidio School of Management in San Francisco, which offers programs in sustainable management, is part of Alliant and shares our accreditation.

學(xué)校介紹

Antioch College was founded in 1852 in Yellow Springs, Ohio. Horace Mann, Antioch College’s first president, was a renowned educator, architect of the American Public School System, social reformer and abolitionist. His goal was to create an educational environment that was stimulating and unconventional in its approach to learning.

As early as 1863, Antioch embraced a policy abolishing race as a criteria for acceptance. Since then, Antioch has been a dedicated advocate for social equity. Antioch College was also the first college in America to educate women on equal terms with men. In addition, Antioch was the first American college to hire female faculty on an equal basis with male colleagues and the first co-educational college to have a woman on its Board of Trustees.

The Antioch today is the legacy of Horace Mann’s original vision, and an example of the success of educational experimentation, innovation and diversity of thought. Antioch continues to break down educational barriers and rebuild them as educational opportunities. Since its creation inb 1852 Antioch has evolved from a small liberal arts college to a multi-campus university system with five campuses located across the nation in Yellow Spring, Ohio, Keene, New Hampshire, Seattle, Washington, Santa Barbara, California and Los Angeles, California. Throughout its history, Antioch has reinvented itself to meet the needs of its students within an ever-changing world.

學(xué)校介紹

Art Center College of Design has been a leader in art and design education for almost 80 years. The College offers undergraduate and graduate degrees in a wide range of disciplines, as well as Public Programs offering design education to all ages and levels of experience. Fundamental to Art Center's core curricula is a commitment to social and cultural engagement and giving students the tools and skills with which to effect change and address real-world issues. Art Center is located in Pasadena, California, with classes held at its Hillside Campus and South Campus in downtown Pasadena.

If there has been one constant at Art Center during its long and innovative history, it’s adaptability. The College has remained on the cutting edge of design leadership by meeting expected challenges of growing enrollment, technical innovation, cultural change and an evolving job market.

Founded in 1930 by advertising man and educational visionary Edward A. “Tink” Adams, Art Center was the first school to teach real-world skills to artists and designers and prepare them for leadership roles in advertising, publishing and industrial design. For the time, this was a radical new concept. Yet, its viability was quickly proven?even in the midst of the Great Depression, Art Center’s graduates achieved a 97 job-placement rate.

Art Center’s original campus was located on West Seventh Street in Los Angeles, a site sufficient for the needs of Art Center’s then 12 teachers and eight students. By 1940, enrollment had grown to nearly 500 students representing 37 states and several foreign countries. After the war, returning veterans pushed enrollment numbers even higher, prompting a move to a larger building on Third Street in 1946, as well as a commitment to a year-round schedule. In 1949, Art Center became an accredited four-year college, and offered its first bachelor of professional arts degrees in Industrial Design, Photography, Illustration and Advertising.

Throughout its existence, Art Center has continued to respond to, and often anticipate, the many cultural and technological landmarks of the 20th century while continually refining its educational arsenal to remain on the forefront of design education. The College played a seminal role in the founding of the first advanced-concept design studio for the automotive industry in the 1950s. Art Center was, in the 1980s, the first design school to install computer labs, spearheading the revolution in digital design. It’s now leading the way with transdisciplinary programs and studios that better prepare students to become leaders and innovators within and outside their chosen fields. Crucial to this adaptability has been a commitment to providing the physical space, resources and facilities necessary to prepare each generation of designers and artists.

學(xué)校介紹

What is known today as Azusa Pacific University is the product of the merger of three Southern California-area Christian institutions: Azusa College, Los Angeles Pacific College, and Arlington College.

The origins of Azusa Pacific University reside in 1899, when a group of spiritual leaders from various denominations met in Whittier, California, and established a Bible college geared to training students for service and missionary endeavors. This was the first Bible college founded on the West Coast. The initial class of students met on March 3, 1900, with Mary A. Hill serving as the earliest president.

The institution, named the Training School for Christian Workers, moved three times before settling in Huntington Park in 1907. In 1939, the Training School became Pacific Bible College, and four-year degrees were offered. Cornelius P. Haggard, Th.D., was appointed president and served for 36 years, until his death in 1975.

By the mid 1940s, Pacific Bible College had outgrown its Huntington Park campus. The Board of Trustees decided then to purchase a 12-acre school for girls in Azusa. Classes began on the new campus in 1947, and in 1956, the name was changed to Azusa College.

Azusa College merged first in 1965 with Los Angeles Pacific College, a four-year liberal arts institution founded in 1903, acquiring the name Azusa Pacific College, and again three years later, with Arlington College, which had been founded in 1954.

[FS:PAGE]

After Haggard’s death, Paul E. Sago, Ph.D., became the president, serving until 1989. Upon its achievement of university status in 1981, the college changed its name to Azusa Pacific University. Among his many accomplishments, Sago encouraged the development and growth of off-site educational regional centers throughout Southern California, and presided over the addition of master’s degree programs and the development of schools within the university.

Richard E. Felix, Ph.D., became president in 1990. Felix painted a vision of a flagship Christian university, offering men and women an opportunity to gain not only their undergraduate and master’s, but also their doctoral degrees. Felix was instrumental in initiating the university’s first three doctoral programs in 1994 and 1997. This growth necessitated a renewed emphasis on the school’s historic Christian mission and priorities for community building and service. Felix reframed these values as the cornerstones of the university?Christ, Scholarship, Community, and Service?and oversaw the construction of seven new buildings, a doubling of student enrollment, and the quadrupling of graduate programs. He announced his retirement in April 2000, after the celebration of the university’s centennial.

Executive Vice President Jon R. Wallace, DBA, was selected unanimously by the Board of Trustees to follow Felix in the role of president, effective November 27, 2000. Spurred by Wallace’s vision to be known first as a Christ-centered institution, Azusa Pacific University seeks to offer transformational scholarship opportunities within the context of life-giving community, dedicated to the practice of selfless service. This understanding of the four Cornerstones guides the university in all its programs and actions.

In addition, Wallace’s vision emphasizes a commitment to partner with the city of Azusa and its citizens. The Neighborhood Wellness Center, for example, is a university-run clinic that brings student nursing services to the public, and the Azusa Reads Program, which enlists students to teach local children how to read, are just two examples of that partnership. In an effort to support the continued growth of the university, Wallace oversaw the acquisition of the soccer field, softball field, and the Azusa Foothill Drive-In Theater on West Campus in 2001. The High Sierra Semester (formerly the Great Works Program) debuted in the fall of that same year, offering students an opportunity to study classic western art, music, and thought in the scenic setting of the majestic Sierra Nevada Mountains. Under Wallace, the growth of study abroad programs has also been encouraged, with the Azusa Oxford Semester, the South Africa Semester, and 38 other study abroad and off-campus learning options.

In 2003, Trinity Hall, a 350-bed residence hall was opened and the John and Marilyn Duke Academic Complex, which houses a multitude of classrooms and offices, the School of Theology, the Stamps Theological Library, the Department of Art, two art galleries, and the Noel Academy for Strengths-Based Leadership and Education, was dedicated. The Noel Academy offers a strengths-based approach to teaching, learning, and leading, and encourages students to become who God created them to be. The Cornerstone Tower, which stands as a reminder of APU’s four main values, as well as the Barbara and Jack Lee Place of Prayer were both constructed on West Campus in 2007. That same year, the university purchased Crestview Luxury Apartments (now University Village), located between East and West Campuses, to provide more student housing.

[FS:PAGE]

In the near future, APU looks forward to the addition of women’s water sports to the award-winning intercollegiate athletics program and the completion of the Science Center on West Campus. This three-story, 70,000-square foot facility is set to house 16 classrooms, 14 labs, one lecture hall, seven smaller research labs, 36 offices, a conference room, two student study rooms, and an office for the Center for Research in Science.

Almost 110 years after its founding, Azusa Pacific University serves as a comprehensive Christian, evangelical university, dedicated to supporting God First and excellence in higher education. The institution offers more than 60 areas of undergraduate study, 26 master’s degree programs, and 7 doctorates to more than 8,100 students. Valuing academic excellence and effective Christian leadership, APU continues to prepare young men and women to serve Christ throughout the world

We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative word of God.

We believe that there is one God, creator of heaven and earth, eternally existent in three persons ? Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, and in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return to power and glory.

We believe in the fall and consequent total moral depravity of humanity, resulting in our exceeding sinfulness and lost estate, and necessitating our regeneration by the Holy Spirit.

We believe in the present and continuing ministry of sanctification by the Holy Spirit by whose infilling the believing Christian is cleansed and empowered for a life of holiness and service.

We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; those who are saved to the resurrection of life and those who are lost to the resurrection of damnation.

We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
