More Than a Campus. A Community.
At the University of Hartford, learning extends beyond the classroom into real-world experiences and communities. With ongoing connections to the Greater Hartford region, our students regularly engage in projects and partnerships that make a measurable impact. Whether it's improving local neighborhoods through volunteer work, performing classic productions like The Nutcracker, or welcoming future students during summer programs, every experience reflects a commitment to growth, collaboration, and purpose. The result is an environment where students are empowered to take action and thrive within the community we all share.
The following event is open to the public, please join us!
