Drury University
Graduates of Drury University are equipped with the leadership skills necessary for success in the professional world. A Drury education combines professional training with the liberal arts in more than 50 majors and academic programs. Drury students explore new ideas, challenge beliefs, learn to think critically and find new ways to understand the world outside the classroom.
Drury began in 1873. It was organized by Congregational home missionaries who felt the need for an academically strong liberal arts college in the area. Patterned after the Congregationalist liberal-arts colleges of the North, such as Oberlin, Carleton, Dartmouth, Yale and Harvard, the college would offer an environment of strong academic discourse and intellectual achievement.
Drury College became Drury University on Jan. 1, 2000, reflecting its growing role in higher education. In addition to the academic programs of the early years, Drury students today study in the Breech School of Business Administration, the Hammons School of Architecture, and the departments of education, mathematics and sciences, social sciences, exercise and sport science, to name a few. The list of majors and minors Drury offers has grown too and now includes high tech ones such as computer science, computer information systems and e-commerce.
